Destination
France
France is far more than Paris, even if the city alone is worth the trip. These guides run from the lavender of Provence and the Alps to the coast and the markets, with the food, the wine and the regions that most itineraries skip past.
France in numbers
France covers about 551,695 km² and is home to roughly 68 million people, with Paris as its capital. The main language is French, and you pay with the Euro (EUR).
