Paris leads the world's other cities in art and cuisine, in
architecture and history, in music and sculpture, in philosophy and
political ferment, in nearly every other area on interest to the
visitor. It has to be seen and experienced, and done so in a
thoughtful manner. Understanding the city's story and culture will add
immeasurably to a trip to the "City of Light".
