I would like to tell you about the wonderful city of Paris. I have never been there, but I already love this city. This is a very beautiful city.
I can just say that Paris should not be confused with anything. To be more precise, I think the main feature of this city is its streets. Paris is the capital city of France. It is situated on the River Seine, in the north of the country, at the heart of the Île-de-France region. About 99% of the people in France speak French. French is a very widespread language. There are at least 29 countries all over the world in which French is spoken. I would like to visit the famous lavender fields in France. In the Lumberton and the Rhone Valley lavender begins to bloom mid June. The Valensole plateau and Drome Provencal begin to get covered with lavender around the beginning of July. By the way, lavender is important in medicine. Lavender can heal insect bites and burns. It can soothe headaches and cure acne. Lavender can be used as an air freshener. The essential oil is made from lavender. It was used during World War I to disinfect wards because the essential oil has antiseptic properties. Appositely, some chefs use flowers of lavender for cooking. Definitely, I want to taste French cuisine because it is one of the best in Europe. Here is some typical French food: baguette, Croquet Monsieur, escargots, Ratatouille… France is the leading country in the fashion industry. French fashion brands such as Chanel, Dior, Hermes, and Louis Vuitton were based in Paris. I think everyone who visits Paris buys something in French fashion stores. France is an amazing country. France is a wonderful country, and we can talk about it for very long, but it is better to go there and see everything with your own eyes.
