Rooms for rent in Paris

Paris is the capital of France. It is often referred to as a romantic city, ideal for lovers. It has plenty of opportunities for people who want to try coliving -- which is all the more critical as Paris can be expensive. It is a multicultural city with people of almost all nationalities living there. French is the main language spoken, so if you speak some, you will be welcome.
Paris has been inhabited since 7600 BC, so it has a long history. It was built on the banks of the River Seine, and it now stretches from the Île de la Cité to well beyond the river’s banks. It’s 375 kilometers from the mouth of the Seine in the English Channel or La Manche, called in French.

In the Enlightenment, the city was known as ‘The City of Light’ (“la Ville Lumière”). This remains an appropriate name as the city is an important place for intellectuals and education.
It was the Parisii tribe that gave Paris its name. It was the capital of France under the reign of Clovis I.
The Left Bank area of the Seine, Rive Gauche, is the center of intellectual learning, while the Right Bank area, Rive Droit, is the center of the economic life in the city.
Paris has a plethora of green spaces and is pleasant to stroll around. The most famous are the Bois de Boulogne and the Bois de Vincennes.

In the 20th and beginning of the 21st century, new parks were created under the Mayor, Jacques Chirac, who was the President of France between 1995 and 2007.
Visiting the Louvre, the world-famous museum and art gallery, is almost obligatory. This is where Leonardo da Vinci’s painting of the Mona Lisa is housed.
Another famous Parisian landmark is the Eiffel Tour, built by Gustave Eiffel in 1889. The views are spectacular from the top.

Facts about Paris include:

• The Champs Élysées is Paris’s most famous avenue in Paris's 8th arrondissement (district). It is essentially a great place for shopaholics. It’s almost 2 miles long (1.9 kilometers) and 230 feet (70 meters) wide.
• Avoid going to Paris during the third week in November unless you love wine and don’t drive there. This is the week of Beaujolais Nouveau.
