Here, you'll find the fascinating Notre Dame cathedral, as well as the Sainte Chapelle, which has been lauded as one of the most beautiful churches in Paris. For a glimpse of France's revolutionary history, you'll want to pay a visit to the Champs-Elysees and the magnificent Arc de Triomphe, constructed under the order of Napoleon as a tribute to his brave armed forces. Paris is also known as one of Europe's top art cities, with good reason! The city is home to the stunning Louvre, a striking former royal palace that is home to the Mona Lisa and many other works from some of the world's great masters.
