Paris

Paris is a city that belongs to the 'Flâneur'—the purposeful wanderer. It is a place where every 'Boulangerie' smells of fresh butter and every street corner looks like a movie set. Most travelers spend 5-6 days here, which allows for exploring the grand monuments of the center and the trendy neighborhoods like Le Marais and Canal Saint-Martin. The city is best navigated by the Métro, which is remarkably efficient despite its age.

The culinary scene is a religion. From the perfect 'Croissant' for 1.20€ to the Michelin-starred dining in the 8th Arrondissement, Paris is a sensory feast. Don't miss the 'Fromageries' (cheese shops) or a late-night steak frites at a classic brassiere. Whether you are browsing for rare books at the bouquinistes along the Seine or watching the world go by from a red-topped wicker chair at a cafe, Paris offers an elegance that is unmatched anywhere else.
