Paris
Paris has always attracted visitors from all over the world as there is something to see and do for everyone! In Paris, one of the world's most exciting cities, you can climb the Eiffel Tower, explore the broad boulevards and magnificent monuments, or relax in the outdoor cafés.  The best way to discover Paris is by foot.  Soak up the personality of each of Paris' neighborhoods (Paris is divided into 20 arrondissements or neighborhoods).  There are also many day trips you can take from Paris, including the Chateau de Versailles and Disneyland.   Theatre has always occupied a large part of Parisian culture, perhaps visit the theatre, opera or ballet while you are here!  Paris was also the venue for the 1938 and 1998 FIFA World Cups. 

Sights to see in Paris: Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Invalides, Notre Dame, Pont Neuf, Pantheon, Montmatre, Secre Coeur, Louvre, Musee d'Orsay, Chateau de Versailles,  Champs-Elysees, Montparnasse, Quartier Latin, Jardin du Luxemburg and much more!

Perpignan

Perpignan is a city with both French and Spanish influences. Located near the border of the two countries this area has been fought over for hundreds of years, switching hands multiple times.  Following a visit in 1963, the Catalan (Spain) surrealist artist Salvador Dalí declared the city's railway station the centre of the Universe, saying that he always got his best ideas sitting in the waiting room. He followed that up some years later by declaring that the Iberian Peninsula rotated precisely at Perpignan station 132 million years ago - an event the artist invoked in his 1983 painting Topological Abduction of Europe - Homage to Rene Thom. Above the station is a monument in Dali's honour, and across the surface of one of the main platforms is painted, in big letters, “perpignan centre du monde” (French for "perpignan centre of the world"). In 2008 the city was named the “Capital of Catalan Culture”.
