All that you want to know about Paris
Is it safe to visit Paris?
I think you are going to plan a trip of Paris and you have one question
that
Is it safe to visit Paris? so I am going to
tell you that Yes it’s
totally safe. All the French tell you the same.
Those descriptions you see in the news are the same images passed around and
around but they occurred only in a very precise part of Paris and in a very
specific day. The other days you could calmly get around in Champs Elysées
without any problem. If you’re adventurous you can even go and see how it is,
if you don’t search for problems you can perfectly go and see the protests
without any danger. But if you don’t want to be bothered by the protests I
would recommend you to take advantage of the weekend for going out of Paris:
·
At 1 or 2 hours in train/car you
can go to visit the Castles of Loire Valley
·
At 3 to 4 hours you can go to
Saint Malo, to Mont St Michel
·
At 2 to 3 hours in TGV you can
go to Bordeaux or Nantes
·
At 3 to 4 hours in TGV you can
go to Marseille
I could go on and on…
So don’t worry. go to Paris and enjoy its beauty.
When’s the best time of year to go to
Paris?
Watch out for
April. It’s true the chestnuts are in blossom that month, but rain and cold are
also on the menu and are a bit hard to take.
May, June, and
July is all a good time to visit.
In August it
is often surprisingly cool. Parisians gripe about ‘a spoiled summer’ each year
that this occurs, but if you can’t tolerate the heat of summer Paris is a good
refuge in August.
September can
also, be rather rainy and cool, but for the Parisians, it’s a great month, ‘la
rentree’ (the ‘return’) as the French call it, when most Parisians are
just back from vacation, are relaxed for a change, proud of their acquired
tans, and still smiling and happy.
From October
to the end of April, skip Paris. You won’t like Paris’ special blend of high
humidity cold and dark days.
April in Paris
is a mixed bag. Yes, the chestnuts are in blossom, as the song promises, but
you are likely to be rained on and shivering while enjoying them. The song ‘April in
Paris’ has probably ruined more honeymoons than any other song in
history.
