Paris is the capital city of France and a French département. Situated on the banks of the river Seine in north-central France, it is also the capital of the Île-de-France région , which encompasses Paris and its suburbs.

A little hill of no more than 130 metres high called Montmartre became one of the most famous places in Paris. You can climb this hill using the steps or take the Funicular. If you have a Paris Visite pass, you can use the Funicular free of charge. Once you are at the top of the hill, you can enjoy a gorgeous panoramic view of the city. The famous hill also has four extraordinary points of interest.
