About Paris

Paris, the capital of France, is home to around 2.1 million people and ranks among Europe's largest cities. Straddling the Seine, it serves as the country's political and cultural heart. The Eiffel Tower and the avenue des Champs-Élysées are among its most recognisable landmarks, while the Triumphal Arch of the Carousel marks the eastern end of the historic axis through the Tuileries. The Hôtel de Matignon functions as the official residence of the French Prime Minister. Disneyland Paris lies within the greater metropolitan area, adding a major leisure destination to the region.
