The Musee d'orsay is home to the great artists of the 19th century. It was originally a train station but now houses a huge treasure trove of art—paintings by Delacroix, Degas, Corot, Manet, Monet, Renoir, Pissarro, Gauguin, Cezanne, Van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec and many others.

The Rodin Museum houses his personal collection in a charming hotel with a sprawling garden where the sculptor lived in his later years. The Kiss, the Cathedral, the Walking Man and portrait busts are some of the exhibits here, among paintings by artists such as Van Gogh, Monet, Renoir, Carriere and Rodin himself. Among the greenery in the gardens, you will also find Rodin’s sculptures such as the Burghers of Calais, the Gates of Hell and the Thinker.

Les Invalides & Musee de l’armee has an imposing gilded dome and was once a hospital for wounded soldiers. The two connecting churches, the Eglise St. Louis and the Eglise du Dome were for the soldiers and the king respectively. Since 1840, the latter has been dedicated to Napoleon, whose body lies here. The complex also contains the Military Museum.

he 300m high Eiffel Tower is probably the most famous landmark in the world, and is the capital’s most visited attraction—ironic for a structure that was intended to stand for just a few months. The cast-iron tower was built for the 1889 World Fair and the centenary of the 1789 Revolution and was named after its designer, Gustave Eiffel. It took over two years to construct using some 18,000 pieces of metal and 2,500,000 rivets. It was the tallest structure in the world until New York’s Empire State Building was constructed in the 1930s. 20,000 flashbulbs light up the edifice at night making it even more stunning.

Eiffel Tower the famous tower in Paris - the city of love

Postby alberty2k » 06 Aug 2009, 22:21

Hi!

The Eiffel Tower is famous symbol of France and was built in 1889, took 2 years to complete and it was the world's tallest building up until 1930.

Paris is the capital city of France. It is also said to be the city of lovers…the most romantic place on earth, and French is the language of love. With so much love around, you are bound to enjoy your stay here. The city is situated on the River Seine in northern France, and its location at a crossroads between land and river trade routes has made it one of the principal cities of Europe.

I have been twice in France. I loved this city - Paris. It has a special air, special places and in a place like that I made the purpose to my future wife. We plan to go to France in our honeymoon.

A gothic masterpiece. Notre Dame, conceived by Maurice de Sully, was built between the twelfth and fourteenth centuries (1163-1345). Road distances in France are calculated on the basis of the "0 km" marked on the square in front of the cathedral.

Whether you're strolling along the Seine or soaking up city life from a sidewalk café, you'll see why Paris is synonymous with the word style. Of course, you can't miss the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, Versailles and the Louvre. But be sure to spend a quiet moment in the Jardin de Tuileries and savor an éclair from a patisserie or a glass of Beaujolais in a romantic bistro. From culinary delights to cultural sights, haute couture to heady romance, Paris will tempt every one of your senses.

Hi,

Its really true that Paris is the city of love. I feel it would be romance at extreme. The name has earned so much that it reflects Love.
I am planning to visit few places one of them is Paris and Greece. I have a good list on my Backpacker Insurance . I am discussing all places to visit with my friends, they have been to there. And have got quite much from here too 8-)
