This is the fabled land of fashion, good food and wine, of royal chateaux and perfectly restored farmhouses, of landmarks known the world over and hidden landscapes few really know. Savor art and romance in the shining capital on the River Seine. See the glorious past at Versailles.
Travel south for Roman civilization and the sparkling blue Med; indulge your jet-set fantasies in balmy Nice and St-Tropez. Ski the Alps. Sense the subtle infusion of language, music and mythology in Brittany brought by 5th-century Celtic invaders. Smell ignominy on the beaches of Normandy and battlefields of Verdun and the Somme. And know that this is but the tip of that gargantuan iceberg the French call culture.
Best time to visit: France has three types of climates-oceanic, continental, and Mediterranean.
The oceanic climate in the western parts of the country is one of small temperature range, ample rainfall, cool summers, and cool but seldom very cold winters.
The continental (transition) type of climate, found over much of eastern and central France, is characterized by warmer summers and colder winters, rainfall is ample, and winters tend to be snowy, especially in the higher areas.
The Mediterranean climate, widespread throughout the south of France, is one of cool winters, hot summers, and limited rainfall.
The mean temperature is about 11° C at Paris and 15° C at Nice.
Indisputably, one of modern France's greatest treasures is its rich cuisine. The French have an ongoing love affair with food, and their reverence for time spent eating is evident everywhere.
Shop for antiques, art, wine, porcelain, enamel, high fashion and clothing, gloves, scarves, perfumes, cheese, tapestries, cognac, champagne and pottery.
