Capital City of France

Paris is renowned as a city of culture, and art lovers will no doubt make the Louvre their first stop, where the Mona Lisa and Pei's glass pyramid are among the attractions. The Musée d'Orsay has an impressive collection of Art Nouveau and Impressionist works. A little off the beaten track is the Marais, an historical quarter with excellent small museums and art galleries including those of Picasso and Carnavalet.
