I am going to talk about Paris,(France) the most tousitic city in the world. You can visit this city during a week without seeing the same monument. Of course, in the things to see, there is the Eiffel Tower, known all over the world. It had been built in 1889 and the hight of the roof is just over 300 m. There are three levels you can reach with a lift or stairs. On these levels, you can have a marvellous panorama of the city, which extends very far. When the weather is sunny, you can see even more far. But the weather is often smoggy in Paris so if the sky is blue, take your chance and climb the Eiffel Tower ! You wouldn't be disappointed ! There is also the arch of triumph which is the world's largest roudabout nowadays. The arch was made for the victorious soldiers to parade through coming back after the war under Napoleon. The huge arch is located at the end of the Champs-Elysées, the world’s most famous avenue almost 2 km long. When you go to Paris in December, the avenue is illuminated at night and it is wonderful, but it uses a lot of electricity ...There is so much to see here at any time of the day or night ! Of course, for the lovers, you can go to the Montmartre hill, which is very romantic. If Paris is far from you, watch "Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain" and you will see how Montmartre is nice. There are plenty of restaurants, shops ... Go to the Sacre Coeur at night, the basilica is even more beautiful. If you want to see The Joconde for real, and not just in picture, you have to go to The Louvre, the biggest museum in France. This museum is really huge and you will be exhausted at the end of a few hours. If you prefer the shopping, there is all that you want in Paris at the price you want. Don't we say that Paris is the fashion capital ?
