Into the book
Originating from the marshlands surrounding the Seine, Marais, once a bourgeois enclave and a Jewish and Chinese settlement, now finds itself mingling with a multinational youth and experiencing its passion.
Buy one item you like on a street crowded with fashion brand products.
Experience Middle Eastern culture by visiting Jewish bookstores, bakeries, and butcher shops on the streets of the Jewish settlement of Rozier, and savoring falafel, a vegetable dish stuffed with pita bread.
At the Place des Vosges, which served as a model for the gardens of France during the absolutist era, you can encounter modern and contemporary French history through the works of the great author Victor Hugo.
While sipping a cup of coffee that reminds us of the values of citizens in an absolute monarchy, we reflect on the ideals of liberty, equality, and fraternity that shaped the French Revolution at the Place de la Bastille, the starting point of the French Revolution.
Learn about the history and structure of the road network during the Napoleonic era at the Arc de Triomphe, built to commemorate Napoleon's victory in the Bonapartist Wars.
Take a stroll down the Champs-Élysées, lined with horse chestnut and plane trees, and experience the urban renewal projects of Baron Haussmann's Paris.
On Avenue Montaigne, you will encounter world-renowned luxury brands such as Chanel, which became a world-renowned luxury brand with the release of the perfume 'N°5'; Christian Dior, which gained popularity by presenting an elegant and glamorous New Look; and Givenchy, which became famous for designing Audrey Hepburn's clothes.
At the Louvre Museum, one of the world's three greatest museums, you can experience the evolution of the Louvre Palace and the glass pyramid created as part of the Grand Louvre plan.
You will encounter works such as the Venus de Milo, which embodies the golden ratio, the Nike of Samothrace, which has become the symbol of a global sports brand, the Sphinx and Papyrus, symbols of Egyptian civilization, Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa, and Eugène Delacroix's Liberty Leading the People.
At the Orsay Museum, which has been transformed from an old history museum into an art museum, you will immerse yourself in the artistic world of 'Van Gogh and Gauguin', who were once inseparable artistic comrades but turned against each other; 'Manet and Monet', the two rivals of Impressionism; 'Renoir and Degas', who painted contrasting works about women; and 'Picasso', the Cubist artist who ignored perspective.
At the creative cultural space, the Centre Pompidou, you can experience firsthand the trends of modern art movements such as Cubism, Surrealism, and Pop Art.
In this way, Paris tempts us with its own stories at every step we take.
The fragrance of Parisian art and culture, beautifully in full bloom, satisfies all five senses.
The moment you feel a new vitality in life while traveling in Paris, you will truly realize the value of travel.
I hope you all can experience this now.
Above all, I hope this book will be of some help to those of you who wish to experience the value of travel.
Since there is no book that specifically describes the purpose of the trip, I wrote this book as an introductory book that contains the direction.
Since I enjoyed writing travelogues, I wrote this article every night while organizing photos from my trip to Paris.
The process of moving to the travel destination, the scenery of the travel destination, and the feelings and experiences are captured in detail.
Even after I finished the manuscript, it still required quite a bit of revision.
Although it may be a little late, I hope this book will serve as a cornerstone for introductory travel geography.
