• Paris is the capital of France, and is a major European city and a global centre for art, fashion, gastronomy and culture.
• Its 19th-century cityscape is home to wide boulevards and the River Seine. Known for  landmarks, such as the Eiffel Tower and the 12th-century, Gothic Notre-Dame cathedral, the city is also known for its cafe culture and designer boutiques along the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré.
• Paris only has one stop sign in the whole city and that is located at the end of a construction company’s drive in the 16th arrondissement. Throughout the rest of the city the right gets priority. No Stop-signs needed!
• The Eiffel Tower was meant to be a temporary monument to demonstrate its superior technology and construction skills. When it was constructed in 1889, it was extremely unpopular. Residents and senior figures protested against it, and the media called it a ‘useless monstrosity’. Today, it is the 4th most visited attraction in Paris.
