France as a leading country in terms of fashion has made other countries envious of the fact that it is always on the top. Its influence has sipped through the different corners of the world and even on little and minute things. People just love anything French from French windows to French bread, these people had not even yet had a glimpse of the beauty of France much more if they did so.

Bordeaux alone with take your breath away from the group of bars and shopping arenas to the several tourist attraction that you can bathe yourself of. Train is the best means of travel. You can cover great distances with the train but you would miss the nitty gritty part of the travel unless you stop from one destination to another.

Skiing is one activity that you will enjoy in France. The place has a full equipped skiing location that you can choose from. If you wanted to enjoy the beach for the summer then let yourself visit the country during the summer season.

Of course in every France travel you should not miss the French cuisine. This time you should really seek a respectable local inn or restaurant in which the locals patronizes. Why? For you are assured that you are served the best French cuisine in the land in a cheaper price.

With the French food there must be a French wine. French has cooked food for the Gods and fermented for the pleasure of heaven; this I was told during my visit. Then as you gaze among the wine bottles for a night’s pick then do not miss Merlots as it was considered as the most carnal wine in the whole world. Wines should a must in every France tourism.

• Bordeaux—one of the great cities to visit in France—this huge city of France boast off various shopping arenas, endless bars and cafes, pubs and great nightlife. Another thing to see in Bordeaux is its historic attractions that create the uniqueness of the city. There are also myriad numbers of students spotted roaming around the Bordeaux.

You can also take a pose on its incredible river of Rhône and the Saône. Experiencing its nightlife with its several clubs and casinos is great too.

• Strasbourg—this city is the capital of the European Union that is why it is no wallflower. It is located across the Rhine River from the country of Germany that makes it a wonderful place since it has the combination of the French and German culture. Eating some of their gastronomic food is also a great experience here.

• Aix-en-Provence—this city is famously known as the ultimate Provencal city. The stunning fountains in every corner add the uniqueness of the city. This is a great city to roam around and see boutiques, architectural wonders and prestigious restaurants.

The transportation in France is never a problem because all is accessible. The best transportation to try in the country is their train. Traveling by train in France is a great experience because it would give you the chance to have a glimpse on the country’s fascinating panoramas. However, if you want something unique and adventurous you can do cycling. Cycling is great in France since it would be your will where to go in the country. The city of La Rochelle in France is famous for bikers. You can find here many bikers cycling around since the city is free of charge.

France has a place where you can do the skiing activity. If you are one of those ski adventurers, the best time to go here would be during the month of November and May. It would be the winter season of the country; the best place to do the skiing would be at the Pyrenees Mountains since it only offers cheap yet less crowded. And if you visit France because of their captivating beaches, the best time to go here would be during the month of May and October. France’s Mediterranean beaches are one of the great options to choose. While Cannes and Nice is the best places that features the best beaches too. You will enjoy it here since the beach resorts here are surrounded with great restaurants and cafes where you can relax, dine and drink.

While in France, don’t miss to visit the Island of Corsica—which is known as the best island to practice water sports. Visit also the country’s interesting museums like the Louvre which is in Paris. It is open the whole year round, so you can visit the museum anytime you wanted to.

The other reason why French cuisine is different from the other countries is because of the influence of its long history, incredible climate and geographies that supported in the production of all types of ingredients and the culture itself. Tasting French foods is one ways of understanding the life and culture of France. So for your best France travel vacation, start it through tasting their foods. But it would be nicer if aside from tasting you will also know the cooking styles of France. This would help you better understand the culture of France.

• Cuisine Nouvelle—this French style of cooking was developed in the 1970s. It is the responses against the classical school of cooking. It is lighter and simpler and the portions are less rich and smaller. The heavy cream sauces are already avoided and the cooking is quicker and less complicated. This style of French cooking as well emphasized the seasonal and local ingredients.

• The Classical French Cuisine—basically includes all the classical French dishes. The foods are from regional and the foods being served are rich in filling, many dishes that uses cream-based sauces.

• The Cuisine du terroir—this French cooking style is more bucolic in nature and it focuses on regional specialties. The main focuses are the food traditions and local produce.

The transit system in Paris has set up a chip card called Passe Navigo Decouverte, but most tourists find the “carnets”, which are packs of ten individual tickets to still be better off. The new Passe is around $27, runs straight from Monday to Sunday and necessitates a photo making it not shareable. In comparison, a 10-ticket pack costs around $14 and is shareable plus with no expiration date.

Moreover, a new online reservation method for the Eiffel Tower debut in 2009 is allowing tourists to reserve a half-hour slot of time in order to avoid disreputable lines. The markets in Paris delight a lot of visitors. While rue Cler has become quite a tourist destination, rue des Martyrs is apparently more popular, and proves to be an outstanding way to hook up with workaday Paris. If you would love to do the “Time Warp” again, you can take pleasure in the cult movie “Rocky Horror Picture Show” with a French crowd in the Latin Quarter during Friday and Saturday nights.

On the French Riviera, the entry fee for all city museums is dropped. Essentially every site in town except the Russian Cathedral and Chagall Museum is free to answer. Antibes is just a short jump away by train and has at last opened its valued Picasso Museum after massive renovation. In the end, regardless of what changes that develops in France at present, visiting the country is always a pleasure, which is the reason why it remains the top destination in Europe.

A merlot was described as “the most carnal of the world’s red wines.’ But a guide to enjoying wines is all a matter of one’s personal discerning taste, rather than drinking merely for pleasure. When selecting wine, it is inevitable to ask whether one is better than the other, and in most cases there aren’t many different concepts, only different approaches. If you can distinguish between a homemade cooking to a processed fast food, you will find that a more suitable comparison is to recognize that both fills in the stomach but are not equally healthy.

If you are generally interested in wine and finds passion for it easily, moving or visiting to France will let you appreciate it even more. It is comes as no surprise to have a say about the country’s troubled wine industry that is encumbered by a well-established bureaucracy, inability to compete with less-regulated states and changing society. However, there is only very little we understand about the fullness and depth of the bond between French and their wine.

While a trip around the French landscape exposes to a variety of dishes that never make its way to French restaurants in America, getting in touch with French wines and exposing one self to an authentic few that are locally made such as Château Mossé of Roussillon, Domaine Borrely-Martin of Provence and Domaine des Tres Cantous of Gaillac. Now that the most special time of the year is hear, serving the most special wines to go with the most special food for the holiday preparation sums up a perfect combination. This may not be your kind of wine that gains one spurs as an expert, but it certainly create a valuable sense of humility at how much is there to learn in a relishing gulp only in France.

Have you noticed that second to English, the universal language, French is the only language being taught to almost every country in the world. I would not wonder why everybody loves France as much as the language is concerned. In many countries French has a significant role in the international language as much as in matters concerning administrative. And in most schools French is taught with a specific category as the French subject. Come to think of it, should it means nothing and only answers insignificance, how come the languages of the Middle East are not the ones being taught instead? And Singapore is a stunning city too, how come Malay isn’t taught? And there are just as many tourists there is in some other gorgeous countries as there is in France but why not their languages not given the opportunity to be brought in universally? Why French? Well, if you did not know French is used significantly in some parts of these places Algeria, Andorra, Argentina, Brazil, Belgium, Cambodia, Canada, Cape Verde, Dominica, Egypt, Greece, Grenada, Guinea-Bissau, India, Italy, Laos, Lebanon, Mauritania, Mauritius, Morocco, Poland, Switzerland, Syria, Trinidad and Tobago, Tunisia, United Kingdom, United States (Louisiana, New England) and Vatican City. Now without further exposition, I’m sure you can now figure out why “YOU CAN SPEAK FRENCH” too.

On my itinerary my first stop is to look for a Louis Vuitton boutique and try to touch one of his bags and look at it as if I’m gonna buy.(Well, I don’t have that many cash!).

The bags of Louis Vuitton are very exclusive and expensive. Even though there are shops that offer imitation Louis Vuitton bags for those people who want the look and not the cost people still love to have the authentic ones. Authentic Louis Vuitton bags can only be bought directly through the designer’s shops.

Louis Vuitton has burst into the fashion scene with the increase of popularity of its luggage business through the years. Yet, what I love most in these Loiuse vuitton collections from the choices of blouse, shoes, dresses, luggage- is the famous and expensive bags.

Louis Vuitton’s bags collection is a status symbol. If you have the money flaunt it with Louis Vuitton’s colletions. And it all started from France. This is one shopping spree you could miss. You cannot visit France without bringing something from Louis Vuittons collection either the authentic one or the replica ones. This is one fantastic show off and proof of visiting France.

One of the talks about bags right now is what they call as the “Frankenstein’s monster” bag that is worth 45,000 dollars. Everybody is raving about it and was shocked when they saw it flaunted on the walkway. Yet, after a while it was sold out! That is how influential Louis Vuitton is in the fashion world. Even the not so good to eyes will really look wonderful to the eyes of the many. What is so special about that bag is that it will catch the attention of the passersby since it is so odd looking.

But now Loius Vuitton sells a lot of things already. Go Loius Vuitton all the way. See the authentic bags from fabulous botiques in France. So, France is always in the international fashion limelight. Thanks to Loius Vuitton.

Do you know France has famous bread? And yes they called it “baguette” its famous stick bread where you can usually found it in bakeshop everywhere within France. Through experience eating this kind of sticks bread, bakers assure you that it tastes delicious even though it’s hard and flavorless but it’s truly taste good. These stick bread is a usual bread that French community really enjoy to eat. You can normally see those French people while having their grocery; baguette stick bread is always present in their cart. The Asian countries follow the techniques in baking of bread in France. Mostly, these Asian people go to France to copy and study France’s technique in baking bread and to cook special food. That is why baguette stick bread can be now found in any countries within Asia. But baguette stick bread is in fact originated in the country of France. The fact is France is also well-known of being good in baking pizza, through their ingredients like tomatoes, bacon, and cheese and so on. There pizza is one of the famous foods we had nowadays; even in the other country they imitate how to bake a French pizza.

The country of France has special holidays were all the big and small shops are usually close. Sundays is usually the day off of all workers in France, this is the day were they can be with their family, doing something fun but some of them attending a Sunday mass since few of them are Roman Catholic. In fact Sunday is a day were you can see all the different French people, who often see in the park hanging out with friends and family, we also called it family day. French community is known as a romantic people, approachable and easy to be with, whereas other countries are not. But most importantly in traveling other places just don’t forget to study their traditions first, to be able to know how to approach them in a nice way.

One of the side agreements signed during the trip of Mr. Sarkozy is for Universite de Paris to lure in more foreign students from India and not just in the Agra region where Taj Mahal is located. Mr. Sarkozy likewise sees that there are numerous regions in India where French business interests can be tapped. There’s the seaside tourism industry in Goa where he notes can become the next tropical paradise similar to Phuket in France or even Palma de Mallorca in Spain. French IT companies can also lavishly invest in such regions as Bangalore where United States-based IT firms such as Palm and EarthLink have long established their affiliates and outsourced work there. Mr. Sarkozy also notes that there can be collaboration between the prolific French film industry and Bollywood which is based in Mumbai. He envisions that the two industries can have better earnings if they work together to compete with Hollywood films.

The French film industry is already gaining ground and applause at the Hollywood film sector this year in time for the 80th Academy Awards come February 25. There are two great French films coming out this year. I’ll discuss the lesser beautiful one and save the most awesome later. The first one is a biography of the great French singer Edith Piaf and the movie is called La Vie en Rose. La Vie en Rose stars Marion Cotillard, a nobody who was catapulted to fame with no less than two acting nominations in her armpit right now – the Screen Actors Guild award and of course the Oscar Best Actress nomination. Once you have been nominated with an Oscar, it is just like winning one already. That’s a prestige in itself.

The second movie worth noting is The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. I don’t know why then Elle editor Jean Dominique Bauby titled his book just like that but The Diving Bell and the Butterfly is his biography. It’s the horrific experience of someone who’s the perfect epitome of a dead man walking – only he is not walking at all. The guy suffers from Locked-In Syndrome, a medical phenomenon earlier explored in one of the episodes of House.
