Paris at night

People first started talking about the city in the third century BC. Initially, a tribe of Celts - the Parisians - founded a small settlement, which was named after them. The city later became known as Paris. It became the capital of France only in the tenth century. There were times when the city's status changed, but for the most part it was always the main representative of the country.

Important! Paris represents love and light. This is a fashionable capital, which is a real paradise for writers. They fall in love with her at first sight.

Initially, the Celts were engaged in trade. In 52 BC the people became part of the Gauls. Then the Romans captured this settlement. They were the ones who rebuilt the city. The Romans erected a number of buildings. We are talking about:

  • aqueduct;
  • amphitheatre;
  • thermals;
  • forum.

In the fourth century, the Franks besieged the city, which held out for ten years, after which they captured it. A century later, it was assigned the status of capital of the Franks.

In the sixth century, construction of the city began. For the most part, he was engaged in trade; political life was also seething. At the beginning of the 15th century, people began to settle on the right bank of the Seine. Even then it was possible to recognize the outlines of the new Paris.

In the 16th century, Paris was again appointed the capital of France. At this time, approximately 300 thousand people lived in it. At the beginning of the 18th century, the city was divided into 20 districts, and a wall was erected around it, which became the administrative boundary.

Important! In the 19th century it was the main cultural and economic center of Europe.

The modern city began to be rebuilt in the mid-19th century under the control of Baron Haussmann. Old buildings were destroyed and new ones were erected. The streets became wider, and real avenues appeared in place of the narrow ones. The city appeared in a neoclassical style.

Important! This is exactly how Paris exists today.

Paris is an example of neoclassicism

The capital of France is one of the largest cities in Europe, with a large historical center, so without detailed Paris tourist map there's no way around it.

A general idea of ​​where the main attractions of the city are located can be obtained from the above schematic map of the center. It marks (Notre Dame de Paris), and other famous architectural monuments. However, for walking tours of the city, it is better to have a more detailed tourist map of Paris with you. The city is very large with dense buildings and many streets, so it can be difficult to navigate here. This is especially true if you need to go a little away from the main landmark of the city center - the Seine River.

There are two tourist maps of the historical center of Paris to choose from on the site. One, more detailed, indicating city attractions. The second one shows the route of tourist buses around the city. Tourist buses are a good option for those who come to the city for 1 day and want to see a lot. If you come to the city for at least two days, then it is better to walk everywhere.

The Paris metro map is also very confusing. The city metro consists of a whole network of lines of the metro itself, as well as suburban trains. Moreover, the metro here is multi-level: the metro itself is laid closer to the surface, and the trains run a little deeper. Many long passages between stations make orientation even more difficult. Some stations are completely abandoned (trains do not stop there). In general, we had some difficulties with the metro, so we must take a responsible approach to studying the train traffic pattern of the Paris metro. Most likely, you will have to take the metro to (it is located a little away from the center of Paris), to the Eiffel Tower (although it can be reached in 30 minutes on foot) and to (it is generally located outside the city). All other main attractions are within walking distance from Notre Dame and the Louvre, which are the conventional center of the city.

Exploring any city begins with a map of the area. Today, everyone has phones with navigation systems, which undoubtedly makes life easier.

However, you cannot completely trust the technology, because if force majeure occurs, there is a high probability of disorientation. Read below about how not to get lost in the metropolis.

Paris is built in a lowland, surrounded by hills. On the map, the city is marked with a circle - the Outer Ring Road - a kind of city boundary, built at the beginning of the 19th century. The diameter (widest point) of the circle is only 12 kilometers.

From east to west, the Seine River flows, bending, one of the branches of which is occupied by the island of Cité, the ancestor of the city. The first buildings of religious and state significance have been preserved here to this day.

The Seine flows through the center of Paris, dividing the city into two parts: northern and southern.

In the northern, busier and more developed part, the Louvre is located - the center of Paris. (It is from this, clockwise, that 20 arrondissements grow in chronological order. The main attractions are located within six arrondissements (1-6)). Do not confuse them with transport zones, there are only 5 of them. All of Paris occupies 1-2 transport zones, for outside there are three more zones, the latter covering Charles de Gaulle Airport, Versailles, Disneyland and other objects (see map of transport zones).

To the west of the Louvre is the Route de Triomphe; in the north is the shopping and financial district of Les Halles; in the east is the center of shopping and entertainment life - the Marais quarter.

In the southern part of the city. On the left bank of the Seine is the Latin Quarter, the Saint-Germain quarter and the seventh arrondissement, where the famous Eiffel Tower is located.

Overground and underground transport runs throughout Paris. Both tourists and local residents prefer to travel by metro - in most cases it is convenient and fast - underground transport stops are scattered near all iconic attractions.
