Paris: Romantic Hotels with Fireplace
The coursing heartbeat of France, the electrifying city of Paris dates to 250 B.C. The Louvre Museum is one of the most famous art museums in the world, housing more than 35,000 pieces of art, ranging from pieces dating to antiquity to modern day classics. Tourists can muse over the renowned works of da Vinci, the statue of “Venus de Milo” and Michelangelo, while strolling through the museum and admiring the Louvre’s pyramid, elegantly lit up at night. The massive iron Eiffel Tower, built in the late 19th century, adorns the Paris skyline and is the city’s most recognized landmark. Tourists can take a tour to the top of the tower and see the sprawling views of Paris or admire the building from afar when it lights up at night, a picturesque vision that embellishes Paris’s horizon. Built in the 14th century, the Notre Dame Cathedral is a breathtaking vision with its gothic architecture, gargoyles, soaring towers and beautiful stained-glass windows. The church boasts unique artwork and sculptures, including 17 bells that have provided a unique soundscape since the 18th century. Built by Napoleon in the early 19th century, the iconic Arc de Triomphe is located on the west end of Champs-Elysees, Paris’s most famous avenue. The triumphant arch honors those who died in the French and Napoleonic Wars and is the second largest arch in the world, having hailed the return of French troops since its construction.
