Its vistas of the Champs-Elysées seen from the Tuileries and the Arc de Triomphe; of Notre-Dame and the point of the City Island seen from La Concorde Bridge; of the River Seine, the Institute, the Louvre, seen from the Pont-Neuf embankment; Notre-Dame and its quays, seen from the end of St. Louis Island; the panorama of the city seen from the top of Montmartre Hill; the Avenue du Bois de Boulogne and the Bois de Boulogne itself, etc., etc.--all are of incomparable beauty. The city’s historical monuments are of inestimable value, and the most famous art treasures are to be found in its Museums. The surroundings of Paris join the charm of their landscapes to the world-wide fame of their parks and castles: _Versailles_, whose palace and park recall the splendour of the Louis XIV. period, and where the “Trianons” have preserved graceful traces of the Court of Marie Antoinette; _St. Germain_, with its castle and forest; _St. Cloud_ and its park; _Sèvres_ and its world-renowned art porcelain factory; _La Malmaison_, home of Bonaparte before he became Napoleon I.; _Rambouillet_, _Fontainebleau_, _Chartres_ with its marvelous cathedral, _Maintenon_, _Dreux_, etc.--all these form a girdle round Paris such as no other metropolis in the world can boast of.
