There is one common trend of all holidays to France and that is a trip to the “city of lights” Paris. Paris is the capital of France and is the number one tourist destination in the world. With more tourists visit Paris than any other city in the world you can be assured there are a ton of attractions to be seen and photographed.

When people think of Paris one object pops into everyone’s mind, and that is the Eiffel Tower. The Eiffel Tower was constructed for the 1889 World’s Fair and for many years it was the tallest man made structure in the world. Every year millions of tourists wait in long lines to catch a lift to the top of this magnificent structure. Once at the summit, the time you spent waiting in line becomes worth it, you are spoiled with view of Paris that is like none other in the city.

Of course we can’t talk about Paris without taking a quick moment to talk about the many extraordinary museums that the city is blessed with. The Musee Rodin, the Musee d’Orsay and of course the Musee du Louvre, all offer breathtaking pieces of art that would even leave non art loves speechless.
