Planning notes for Paris
Paris, the capital of France, originated as a settlement on the Île de la Cité approximately 2,000 years ago. Its historical heritage is documented through 2,185 monuments, including the Eiffel Tower, constructed for the 1889 World’s Fair, and the Arc de Triomphe, commissioned in 1806. The city’s architectural landscape features a transition from the Gothic style of the Notre-Dame Cathedral, which reopened to the public following extensive restoration.
