Our Paris Page

The area of the Paris basin has been occupied by man for about 700,000 years. Hunter-gatherers, farmers, merchants, students, writers, kings and revolutionaries have all looked on the City of Light as their home. It is a city of many more contrasts than the "town and gown" of the Middle Ages. Within its walls you will find magnificent churches close by tawdry dance halls, humble sidewalk cafés nestled beside elegant 5-star restaurants, bustling metropolitan traffic roaring past peaceful gardens amd parks. Workers, shopkeepers, and businessmen, occupied with their mundane concerns, walk daily in the shadow of some of the greatest monuments of history. Paris, deprecated by the non-Parisian areas of France, works its unique magic on the rest of the world. Having once visited her, you will not be satisfied until you return.

On this page you will find some links to what many people consider the most beautiful city in the world. Click on the thumbnail buttons below to see enlargements of some scenes from our short stay in Paris in July, 1995, while on a concert tour with the Worthington Civic Band.
