National Parks in France - 0 views

  • France is world famous for its "gastronomy", its fine restaurants and wines. It sometimes surprises visitors from outside France, that they can find top quality restaurants even in small provincial towns, and that many of these offer first-class menus at a fraction of the price one would pay for something similar in Britain or the USA. There are several directories that approve and list the top restaurants, and the most famous of these are the Michelin guide and the Gault & Millau guide. However, there is no directory that lists all the good restaurants in France, since some of these are found in the most unexpected out-of-the-way places, and while the food they offer is not "haute cuisine", it is tasty, well prepared and nourishing.

  • Monet's garden at Giverny At the end of the 19th century the world of art was changing forever, as the French impressionists explored new ways of painting and representing landscapes and scenery. Among these was Monet, and many of his most famous paintings are clearly recognisable scenes from the gardens at Giverny.

Campos Eliseos - 0 views

  •  
    "Al hablar de los Campos Elíseos de Paris, estamos hablando de la que es probablemente la Avenida más famosa del mundo, célebre para los amantes del deporte por ser el lugar donde finaliza año tras año el Tour de Francia, punto de referencia de los amantes de la moda al albergar a las principales firmas de moda, y sin lugar a dudas modelo de calle llena de vida y llena de gente tanto de día como de noche. Los Campos Elíseos comienzan al oeste de la Plaza de la Concordia, donde tras atravesar un pequeño parque nos encontramos con los primeros números de esta singular avenida, avenida que finaliza con el impresionante y robusto Arco de Triunfo, teniendo su prolongación en la Avenida de la Gran Armada (a cuyo fin en Porte Mallot encontramos el Palacio de Congresos de París) primero, y la Avenida Charles de Gaulle después, y si seguimos hacia La Defensa en línea recta llegaremos hasta el Gran Arco de la Defensa, un enorme Arco moderno cuya alineación con el Arco de Triunfo simboliza la unión del viejo y clásico París con el moderno París de las finanzas, con sede en La Defensa. Campos Eliseos Paris Por el día Los Campos Eliseos son un hervidero de gente que va/viene a/de trabajar, a hacer compras o simplemente a tomar algo en cualquiera de sus bares y terrazas (siempre orientadas hacia la calle para ver la gente pasar), pero por la noche los Campos Elíseos no duermen, ya que tanto en la avenida misma como en las calles adyacentes existen un buen número de bares y discotecas que hacen las delicias de los amantes de la fiesta hasta altas horas de la madrugada.
