Paris

Paris is the capital of France. It's located in the north of the country. The Seine river crosses it. The population of the city itself is 2,200,000 inhabitants, and constitutes the center of a metropolitan area of 12,000,000 inhabitants, one of the largest in Europe.

Paris has a privileged place in the artistic and cultural scope. Important figures of the art have been born there, like René Descartes, Voltaire, Victor Hugo, Émile Zola, Alexandre Dumas (son), Edgar Degas, Claude Monet, Jean-Paul Sartre, Jean Renoir.

Also it has welcomed in numerous foreign artists as Leonardo Da Vinci, Vincent van Gogh, Pablo Picasso and writers like Ernest Hemingway, Gabriel García Márquez, Julio Cortázar, Francis Scott Fitzgerald and other celebrities like Alexander von Humboldt.

In addition the city counts with the greatest art work agglomeration, distributed in multiple museums and private collections. Within these treasures most outstanding it is the famous Monna Lisa, a painting of incalculable value. On the other hand the architectonic patrimony of Paris doesn't have comparison in the world, no other city has raised so many and so valuable buildings of the most outstanding universal architects.

I think that you should visit this wonderful city.
