INTRODUCTION
Paris, the cosmopolitan capital of France, is one of Europe’s
largest cities, with 2.2 million people living in the dense,
central city and almost 12 million people living in the
whole metropolitan area. Located in the north of France on
the river Seine, Paris has the well deserved reputation of
being the most beautiful and romantic of all cities,
brimming with historic associations and remaining vastly
influential in the realms of culture, art, fashion, food and
design. Dubbed the City of Light (la Ville Lumière) and
Capital of Fashion, it is home to the world’s finest and
most luxurious fashion designers and cosmetics, such as
Chanel, Dior, Yves Saint-Laurent, Guerlain, Lancôme, L’Oréal,
Clarins, etc.ACCOMMODATION
