Paris
Introduction |
 |
|
| |
Paris, the capital of France, ranks
consistently as one of the most liked
cities in the world. Paris truly deserves
her nickname of the City of Light. Many
of the monuments are even more beautiful
illuminated at night than during the
day. Its evolution and history can be
seen from the river.

Musee
Rodin
Musee
Rodin is acclaimed as the father
of modern sculpture, but in
a different era his work was
labeled obscene. The world's
artistic taste changed, and

mansion in the Faubourg St-Germain. |
