Tourist Overview: France is the number one tourist destination in the world. It has everything that you could ever want to see on your holidays: a great city like Paris, good beaches, more monuments than any other country, lovely nature, incredible mountain scenery and more. Paris, the city of light and its surroundings are one of the most visited areas. Paris is without a doubt one of the prettiest cities on the planet.

The North of France consists of the flatlands around the town of Lille and the Channel. Normandy and Brittany have a rugged coast, the D-Day beaches and memorials and many Neolithic sites. Bordeaux, capital of the south west, is a stylish city famous for its wines and its 18th century architecture. Eastern France consists of the Alsace, Lorraine and Burgundy and the Franche Comte region. The great treasure of the Center of France is the Loire valley, with many great castles and beautiful towns. Much of it is upland, traversed by wild river valleys and an unspoiled natural environment. The north of the region stretches towards the flatter Loire valley. The French Alpes are great for skiing in winter and hiking in summer. The cities of Albertville, Grenoble and Chamonix have all hosted the Olympic games.

The South, with its lovely nature, good food, roman ruins and Riviera, draws a lot of visitors every year. Towns like Orange, Arles but also big cities like Marseille and Toulon are must sees. Provence is dotted with pleasant small villages. In the South west of France the Dordogne is one of the most quintessential French regions. The valley is so pretty, the towns are so cute and the food is so good, that it is hard to believe that the people who live here go somewhere else for their holidays. The Languedoc has its own language and culture. In the south of the Languedoc you find the Pyrenees, a great mountain range separating France from Spain, where you can hike and ski. The towns of Toulouse and Montpellier, in Alsace, are nice and the medieval town of Carcassone in Languedoc Roussillon is a top destination.
