World / Europe / France / Paris, France

Paris, France


France is one of the most famous countries in Europe, and Paris is probably the most famous city in the world. Paris is rightfully called "the city of light". It is not because of its extensive illumination — otherwise any major city would claim the title — but because the capital of France has been a center of education, arts and philosophy for many centuries.

The word "Paris" originated from Latin "Civitas Parisiorum" and means "the city of Parisia", a Celtic settlement on Cite Island (Ile de la Cité). Today Ile de la Cité is one of two existing islands on Siene River located right in the historical center of the French capital. The island has been populated since ancient times, so this is when Parisian history has really begun.

Louvre, Paris

Paris has not always been the magnificent city. In Medieval times Ccity of Kiev played much more important role than Paris. For example, in XI century, Anna Yaroslavna (daughter of Yaroslav the Wise) married King of France and was greatly disappointed by the city. XIII century was a prime time for Paris, which continued up till modern days. This is the reason why there are so many famous attractions in Paris: Notre Dame de Paris, Louvre, Champs-Élysées, Moulin Rouge, La Défense district, Centre Pompidou, Eifel Tower, the Pont Alexandre III, the Grand Palace, Nursing Home Cathedral, the Tuileries Garden, Musée d'Orsay, Place de la Concorde, Opera House, Basilique du Sacré-Cœur, and many more. All these landmarks decorate the capital of France making it one of a kind.

Basilique du Sacré-Cœur

Each Paris landmark has its own story that would take pages and pages! So let us tell you a few amusing facts instead. For example, Moulin Rouge is not only the famous classical cabaret and one of the must-see places in Paris. It is also a place where they performed striptease dance for the first time in world history. Before the incident in 1894 showgirls danced fully clothed.

Mouline Rouge

Notre Dame de Paris is another example. The reason for its gigantic size (35m high, 130m long, and 48m wide) was the idea to fit all citizens of Paris inside the Cathedral. However, the construction took one and half centuries, and so by the time they put a finishing touch to interior decoration, the population of Paris grew considerably making the original idea irrelevant. Nevertheless it doesn't stop Notre Dame de Paris from being geographical and spiritual heart of Paris.

Notre Dame de Paris

Louvre is one of the largest museums in the world. It is located in the old King's Palace, which, in turn, was built as a castle capable of withstanding Viking's attacks. Famous Champs-Élysées in Paris have nothing to do with fields. This is a huge (1915m long and 70m wide) street. Back in XVI century it was a swamp, where French kings went hunting ducks. Champs-Élysées got its name during French Revolution. In Greek mythology "Champs Élysées" were beautiful fields on the bank of Ocean River, where loved-by-Gods heroes went at the end of their glorious lives. The only thing that "beautifies" Champs Élysées today is a string of luxury boutiques and entertainment places. Also, one more Paris landmark is located here — Arc de Triomphe, built in Roman style. The Arch symbolizes the victory of great army of Napoleon I.

Arc de Triomphe

By the way, modern city of Paris was designed for war or, to be exact, for its "strategic purposes", as Napoleon III put it. This is why in the middle of XIX century the city's layout was altered to serve the purpose: being "ready for battle and beautiful" at the same time. As a result, many charming narrow Parisian streets were widened and straightened, remaining this way up till now.

La Defance

"Paris is a holiday, which is always with you!" — these poetical words belong to Ernest Hemingway, famous American novelist. Probably everybody would agree with these words, no matter if one visited Paris or not. Paris is a symbol of romance and a cradle of European culture. From childhood we learn about the city from movies; from books by Victor Hugo, Alexandre Dumas and George Simenon; and from history lessons: Napoleon, taking of the Bastille, the Paris Commune... There is no tourist, who would not dream of walking the legendary streets and taking home a picture of Eifel Tower...

Eiffel Tower

We invite you to look at the capital of France from the bird's eye view. Perhaps, it will add something new to your own impression of Paris.

It was beautiful. Even being on the tower was an amazing sight despite the rusting metal and overcrowding. Je voudrais voyager en france! It truly is a beautiful place.

Quand les
ombres de la
nuit reviennent
sur les roses
pour donner une
chanson le tendre
soupir minvite
à comprendre le
chant de la mort
et alors le sourire
devient le portrait
dun sonnet douloureux:
jécoute le silence
qui pénètre dans
le vide, jessaie de
fuir en cherchant
lharmonie dans la
lueur des étoiles...

Like an elegant
melody a luminous
smile reappears
in your eyes giving
the whisper of a
magical moment:
and so, little darling,
while the sunshine
is beaming and
a fortunate sparrow
returns in the
garden, a tender
happiness revives
on a fine rose.

Great work!!

Moss Mphahlele, South Africa

Outstanding, once again. The usual sites, such as the Eiffel Tower, Arch de Triomphe are beautiful but so many other beautiful areas brings to mind as to why Paris, France is called the most romantic and beautiful city in the world. Your music selection, Follies-Love is Blue-Love Stories-Paris, again is remarkably listenable as "we" tour Paris through your fantastic 360 AirPano Panoramic pictures. Well done!.

Ed Nelson, USA

Absolutely awesome! It is a 7-star presentation, if I can rate it more than the highest mark 5. God bless all of you out there who are doing such a wonderful job and bringing joy into the lives of so many people, especially to those who cannot go out and travel either due to financial constraints or old age. Thanks again and all the very best to all of you. :)

AirPano brings me to places I may not be able to visit or even if I am there, I may not be able to see it up in the air to see the rooftops of buildings or mountains... a different perspective indeed.
