The world’s most visited destination for the most compelling of reasons — where the Eiffel Tower’s iron silhouette against a Parisian twilight sky, the lavender fields of Provence rippling in the summer breeze, the chateaux of the Loire Valley rising above their reflection in still river waters, and the sun-drenched glamour of the Côte d’Azur create a travel experience of extraordinary beauty, cultural depth, and enduring romantic magnificence that no other country on earth can fully replicate.
