Advantages: lots to see and do

Disadvantages: busy

Paris is the capital of France and is situated in the northern part. It is a very busy and romantic city.

I first went to Paris over 10 years ago. Since that time I have been back twice both at different times of the year. I particularly like Paris in the Spring. The weather is getting better and the surrounding countryside is beautiful.

If you like art galleries and museums Paris is an excellent weekend break destination. The Louve is particularly impressive with a number of French art works housed here. It is right in the centre of Paris so is easily accessable via tube or bus. The Eiffel Tower isn't far from here but queues can be very long. Get there early if you want to go all the way to the top, queue time should be less than an hour then.

The Seine is the beautiful river that runs through the City. There are a number of boat companies which will take you out for a 45 minute trip. It is all also translated into english if you don't speak french. I would advise the night boat when the city is all lit up. It really is a beautiful sight to see.

There are a vast number of hotels in Paris ranging from Budget to Luxury. You can get some really cheap hotels right in the centre of Paris but you do need to shop around. Check out Booking.com for some good deals.

There really is so much to do in Paris you will need more than one trip but with low cost flights from all over the UK it's never been easier.

Summary: this is the most romantic city in the world!
