Many people when France is mentioned imagine Paris with its well-known Tour Eiffel and Champs Elysée. And if the interlocutor says he or she is going to visit France thus without having visited the country’s capital, the most typical remark might be “What do you wish to see there? France is only Paris!” But actually it is the most interesting European country each region of which will necessarily surprise even the most prejudiced tourist. Lyon differs from Nice the way Vladivostok differs from St. Petersburg, and each (even the smallest) French city has the distinctive features inherent only in it.
When you decide to make a trip to France but have no accurate view on where to go, we recommend to pay attention to Aquitania department which administrative centre is Bordeaux – the native land of the well-known wine with the same name.
