Discover Paris France
Discover paris the city of light... Paris is located in northern France on both banks of the Seine River, 145 km (90 mi) from the river's mouth on the English Channel. A total of 2,135,300 (2002) inhabitants live in Paris proper, and almost 11 million persons live in greater Paris (the Ile-de-France region), which is one of Europe's largest metropolitan areas. A city of world importance and the business, historic, intellectual, diplomatic, religious, educational, artistic, and tourist center of France, Paris owes its prosperity in large part to its favorable position on the Seine, which has been a major commercial artery since the Roman period. The climate is characterized by a lack of extremes, with an average temperature of 25 degrees C (77 degrees F) in July and 6 degrees C (42.8 degrees F) in January. The 575 mm (23 in) of precipitation is well distributed throughout the year, often in the form of a soft drizzle.
Paris is divided into 20 unequally sized arrondissements, or districts, each with its own mayor. Each of these is again divided into four sections. Two prefects and a mayor administer the city as a whole with the assistance of a general council. There is so much to see around the city that you won’t know where to begin. Culture is rich in the French capital with some of Europe’s best known and most popular museums here. If you want to fill a roll on your film on instantly recognizable landmarks, in Paris they are a dime a dozen. And if you want to see how the French really go about their daily routine, you can do so at one of the city’s many cafés Enjoy your stay in that beautiful city! |
