The play of perspectives was studied by the architect André Le Nôtre and the result is an expanse of water features and geometries, sculptures, and canals. If you are an art lover, in Paris you can indulge yourself. The Gare d'Orsay, a real station used as an art gallery in 1986, offers some of the most famous works in the world, such as the dancers of Degas or the portraits of Renoir. The structure itself is noteworthy: it is the ancient station of Paris dating back to 1900.
Worthy of note is the Centre Pompidou (or Beaubourg), inaugurated in 1977 and renovated in the 1990s by a group of architects, which also included Renzo Piano. The gallery houses works of architecture, modern art, and photography with a permanent exhibition always active and many traveling exhibitions that follow one another, along with conferences, concerts, and cultural activities.
Don't miss the Bibliothèque Publique d'Information, which is located inside the Beaubourg and is the main library in Paris, collecting hundreds of thousands of sources including books, magazines, maps, scores, and much more.
Paris is also the city of fashion. Some of the most famous and exclusive brands have their headquarters right in this city, and the Fashion Weeks ensure that the city is populated by eccentric people who show off their most extravagant outfits.
