 LOCATION
Paris is located in northern central France. It is situated in the north-bending arc of the river
Seine and includes two islands, the Île Saint-Louis and the larger Île de la Cité, which form the
oldest part of the city. The river's mouth on the English Channel (La Manche) is about 233 mi (375
km) downstream from the city. The city is spread widely on both banks of the river.

The coordinates of Paris are 48.8566° N, 2.3522° E.

 TIME TO VISIT
 The best time to visit Paris is from April to June and October to early November when the
weather is mild and enjoyable and the tourist crowds are smaller than summer.
 The cheapest time to visit Paris is early December, January, and February.
 September can be a particularly wonderful time to visit Parisian gardens, when plenty of
blooms remain but the summer crowds have thinned.
 Christmas displays and markets remain up and running into early January.
 During the last month of the summer, Paris remains heavily touristic, but most locals have fled
to the coast.
 WAYS TO REACH
Paris can be easily reached from all the major cities of the world. It is served by three international
airports: Charles de Gaulle International Airport, Orly International Airport and Beauvais.
There are several daily flights from Indian cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai, Pune,
Hyderabad and Kolkata etc. The airlines that operate to CDG are Air France, Air India, Lufthansa,
Emirates and Etihad.
. Charles de Gaulle is around 28kms northeast of the centre of the city and is well connected to the city
by bus, taxi and train. There are six bus lines which link the airport to different parts of the city and the
buses are frequent.
Orly is 19km south of central Paris but it is not that frequently used by international airlines. Public
