Turning back the pages of history

At the heart of Paris’s appeal is its rich history. The city was founded during the time of the Romans. The Sorbonne, an important center of learning for several centuries, was established in the city in the medieval period.

Parish flourished in the 19th century when several of its landmarks were built, including the Eiffel Tower, the famous parks and the striking streetlights. The streetlights were the reason Paris came to be known as the City of Lights. The city today is a cosmopolitan Mini Europe, a melting pot of cultures from across the continent.

Reaching and exploring Paris

It is also possible to take trains to the city from major European countries, including the United Kingdom and Germany. The best time to travel to Paris is the summer time when the weather is pleasant.
