France

France
France is "La Grand Nation", Land of wine, Champagne, cheese and "joie de vivre". The whole country is interesting for tourists, whether it is the capital Paris with Eifeltower and Louvre, the Cote d´Azur and Mediteranean, the Provence or the Atlantic coastal areas. And for the sports-minded there is of course the Tour De France in July.
