Paris is a big city, where citizens from all over the world live! Each culture has left a bit of itself in the French capital. Gastronomy, heritage, exhibitions, shows... Here are some ideas to go around the world, without leaving Paris!

Paris is what we call a megalopolis: the city of light is the world center of art, fashion, gastronomy and culture. It is home to several million inhabitants, and several billion tourists from all over the world.

For many, Paris is the symbol of French culture. And it is true! But Paris is also a multicultural city, where one travels from one end of the world to the other, during a simple stroll, a meal, a discovery. Japan, China, Italy, Portugal, North or South America, Ireland, Lebanon, Arab or African countries... The whole world is only a subway station away. Want to enjoy this cosmopolitan vibe that is also the charm of the Parisian capital? We'll take you on a fabulous trip!

So where would you like to go? Which country, which culture would you like to discover without leaving Paris? Gastronomy, heritage, shows: it's up to you to choose where and how you will travel!
