The Loire
Valley
From
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Loire Valley (French: Vallée de la Loire) is known
as the Garden of France and the Cradle of the French
Language. It is also noteworthy for the quality of
its architectural heritage, in its historic towns
such as Amboise, Angers, Blois, Chinon, Orléans,
Saumur, and Tours, but in particular for its
world-famous castles, such as the
Châteaux d'Amboise,
Château de Villandry
and
Chenonceau.
The landscape of the Loire Valley, and more
particularly its many cultural monuments, illustrate
to an exceptional degree the ideals of the
Renaissance and the Age of the Enlightenment on
western European thought and design. The Loire
Valley is an outstanding cultural landscape of great
beauty, containing historic towns and villages,
great architectural monuments, its many châteaux,
and fine wines.
On December 2, 2000, UNESCO
added the central part of the Loire River valley,
between Maine and Sully-sur-Loire, to its
prestigious list of World Heritage Sites. In
choosing this area that includes the French
départements of Loiret, Loir-et-Cher, Indre-et-Loire,
and Maine-et-Loire, the committee said that the
Loire Valley is:
"an exceptional cultural landscape, of great beauty,
comprised of historic cities and villages, great
architectural monuments - the Châteaux - and lands
that have been cultivated and shaped by centuries of
interaction between local populations and their
physical environment, in particular the Loire
itself."

From Wikipedia,
the free encyclopedia
Paris (also
known as the "City of Light") is the capital city of France. It
is situated on the River Seine, in northern France, at the heart
of the Île-de-France region ("Région parisienne"). Paris has an
estimated population of 2,153,600 within city limits (2005
est.). The Paris urban area has a population of 9.93 million; a
vast commuter belt around the same completes the Paris "aire
urbaine" (roughly: "metropolitan area") that, with its
population of 11.5 million, is one of the most populated areas
of its kind in Europe.
Paris' location at a crossroads between land and river trade
routes in lands of abundant agriculture had made it one of
France's principal cities by the 10th century, rich with royal
palaces, wealthy abbeys and a cathedral; by the 12th century
Paris had become one of Europe's foremost centres of learning
and the arts. Today, Paris is a major influence in politics,
fashion, business, arts and science. The city serves as an
important hub of intercontinental transportation and is home to
universities, sport events, opera companies and museums of
international renown, making it an attraction for over 30
million foreign visitors per year. |
