Paris

Paris combines monumental city planning with the intimate rhythm of riverside neighbourhoods in a way that reflects its historic position on the Seine. The river divides around the Île de la Cité, where Notre-Dame Cathedral stands beside some of the city’s oldest streets; the cathedral reopened in 2024 after restoration following the 2019 fire. On the Right Bank, the Louvre evolved from a medieval fortress into a royal palace and now houses one of the world’s major art museums. Broad 19th-century boulevards, cafés and markets connect grand civic spaces with daily Parisian life.
