description: Strolling about Paris has its own feel  walking down the centuries, through the history of France, from a princely residence to a fresh vegetable market, from a legendary bistrot to an iron tower. In a light-drenched city sparkling like a spring, we are invited to partake of the joy of life, as the Seine, in watercolor delight, conveys our memories and nourishes our dreams. Be it minuet or java, Paris dances and twirls on the same shapely leg, and its millennial visions care little for the succession of regimes and the conflicts of generations. This universal city seems tailored for personal discoveries and, as such, is both backdrop and protagonist to our lives. It converts the aimless wanderer into a wayfarer among the stars, and from its splendor burgeons our inner, exotic weave. Whether innocently whispering or resounding like a brass band, Paris turns strolling into a consummate art.
