Annotation:

Paris, the glittering metropolis on the Seine, is a permanent contender for the title of Cultural Capital of Europe, with its vast art treasures and historically significant Quartiers and buildings. Yet visitors are attracted, not only by the Paris that is steeped in history, but also by the glimpse into modernity afforded by its sensational architecture. The charm of Paris continues to be based on savoir vivre, that incomparably elegant way of life enjoyed by Parisians, as well as on the stylish cosmopolitanism of the city and its magnificent boulevards.
