Paris

The city of Paris from the top of Eiffel Tower. I took this picture on Christmas day, 2004. Known worldwide as the City of Light (la Ville Lumière), Paris has been a major tourist destination for centuries. The city is known for the planning of its architecture, its urban perspectives and avenues, as well as the wealth of its museums. Built on an arc of the River Seine, it is divided into two parts: the Right Bank to the north and the smaller Left Bank to the south.
