Paris in the festive season
The French capital and one of Europe’s – if not the world’s –
most instantly recognisable and iconic cities. Its global impact on
art, fashion, entertainment, media and education cannot be
underestimated; Paris truly offers something for everyone and
that’s no different at Christmas time. Perhaps take in some of the
fantastic seasonal window displays that feature in most department
stores, take a ride on one of the traditional carousels that pop up
across the city at this time of year, or take in the magical sight
that is the Champs lyses Christmas market. More than 15,000
lights illuminate this famous avenue and you can wander the stalls,
each selling different yuletide gifts and delicacies such as
tartiflette.
