The Louvre contains many priceless works,including the Mona Liza,the Winged Victory of Samothrance and the Venous de Milous.The Cathedral of Northen Dame is the largest church in France .The Arc de Thriomphe is a neoclassical architecture.It is located in the central Paris .

The most famous and luxury hotels are: Hotel Lutetia(http://www.agoda.gr/), Grand hotel Royal, hotel Concorde Montparnasse (http://www.agoda.gr/), hotel Ritz(http://www.ritzparis.com/) e.t.c...!
