Paris is the capital and most populous city of France, with an area of
105 square kilometres (41 square miles) and an official estimated
population of 2,140,526 residents as of January 1, 2019. Since the
17th century, Paris has been one of Europe's major centres of
finance, commerce, fashion, science, and the arts.

Hotels
In 2017 Greater Paris had 2,020 hotels, including 85 five-star hotels, with a total
of 119,000 rooms. Paris has long been famous for its grand hotels. The Hotel
Meurice, opened for British travellers in 1817, was one of the first luxury hotels
in Paris.The arrival of the railways and the Paris Exposition of 1855 brought the
first flood of tourists and the first modern grand hotels; the Hôtel du Louvre (now
an antiques marketplace) in 1855; the Grand Hotel (now the InterContinental
Paris Le Grand Hotel) in 1862; and the Hôtel Continental in 1878. The Hôtel
Ritz on Place Vendôme opened in 1898, followed by the Hôtel Crillon in an
18th-century building on the Place de la Concorde in 1909; the Hotel Bristol on
the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré in 1925; and the Hotel George V in 1928.
Museums
The Louvre was the most visited art museum in the world in 2017, with 8.1
million visitors. Its treasures include the Mona Lisa (La Joconde), the Venus
de Milo statue, Liberty Leading the People, and many other notable works.
The second-most visited museum in the city, with 3.3 million visitors, was the
Centre Georges Pompidou, also known as Beaubourg, which houses the
Musée National d'Art Moderne. The third most visited Paris museum, in a
building constructed for the Universal Exhibition of 1900 as the Orsay railway
station, was the Musée d'Orsay, which had 3.2 million visitors in 2017.
Theatre
The largest opera houses of Paris are the 19th-century Opéra Garnier (historical
Paris Opéra) and modern Opéra Bastille; the former tends toward the more
classic ballets and operas, and the latter provides a mixed repertoire of classic
and modern. In middle of the 19th century, there were three other active and
competing opera houses: the Opéra-Comique (which still exists), Théâtre-Italien,
and Théâtre Lyrique (which in modern times changed its profile and name to
Théâtre de la Ville). Philharmonie de Paris, the modern symphonic concert hall of
Paris, opened in January 2015. Another musical landmark is the Théâtre des
Champs-Élysées, where the first performances of Diaghilev's Ballets Russes
took place in 1913.
Cinema
The movie industry was born in Paris when Auguste and Louis Lumière projected
the first motion picture for a paying audience at the Grand Café on 28 December
1895. Many of Paris's concert/dance halls were transformed into cinemas when
the media became popular beginning in the 1930s. Later, most of the largest
cinemas were divided into multiple, smaller rooms. Paris's largest cinema room
today is in the Grand Rex theatre with 2,700 seats.
Restaurants and cuisine
Since the late 18th century, Paris has been famous for its restaurants and haute
cuisine, food meticulously prepared and artfully presented. A luxury restaurant,
La Taverne Anglaise, opened in 1786 in the arcades of the Palais-Royal by
Antoine Beauvilliers; it featured an elegant dining room, an extensive menu, linen
tablecloths, a large wine list and well-trained waiters; it became a model for future
Paris restaurants. The restaurant Le Grand Véfour in the Palais-Royal dates from
the same period. The famous Paris restaurants of the 19th century, including the
Café de Paris, the Rocher de Cancale, the Café Anglais, Maison Dorée and the
Café Riche, were mostly located near the theatres on the Boulevard des Italiens;
they were immortalised in the novels of Balzac and Émile Zola. Several of the
best-known restaurants in Paris today appeared during the Belle Epoque,
including Maxim's on Rue Royale, Ledoyen in the gardens of the Champs-
Élysées, and the Tour d'Argent on the Quai de la Tournelle.
Libraries
The Bibliothèque nationale de France (BnF) operates public libraries in Paris,
among them the François Mitterrand Library, Richelieu Library, Louvois, Opéra
Library, and Arsenal Library. There are three public libraries in the 4th
arrondissement. The Forney Library, in the Marais district, is dedicated to the
decorative arts; the Arsenal Library occupies a former military building, and has a
large collection on French literature; and the Bibliothèque historique de la ville de
Paris, also in Le Marais, contains the Paris historical research service. The Sainte-
Geneviève Library is in 5th arrondissement; designed by Henri Labrouste and built
in the mid-1800s, it contains a rare book and manuscript division. Bibliothèque
Mazarine, in the 6th arrondissement, is the oldest public library in France. The
Médiathèque Musicale Mahler in the 8th arrondissement opened in 1986 and
contains collections related to music. The François Mitterrand Library (nicknamed
Très Grande Bibliothèque) in the 13th arrondissement was completed in 1994 to a
design of Dominique Perrault and contains four glass towers.
Transport
Railway: A central hub of the national
rail network, Paris's six major railway
stations (Gare du Nord, Gare de l'Est,
Gare de Lyon, Gare d'Austerlitz, Gare
Montparnasse, Gare Saint-Lazare) and
a minor one (Gare de Bercy) are
connected to three networks: the TGV
serving four high-speed rail lines, the
normal speed Corail trains, and the
suburban rails (Transilien).
Metro: Since the inauguration of its first
line in 1900, Paris's Métro (subway)
network has grown to become the city's
most widely used local transport system;
today it carries about 5.23 million
passengers daily, through 16 lines, 303
stations (385 stops) and 220 km (136.7 mi)
of rails. Superimposed on this is a 'regional
express network', the RER, whose five
lines (A, B, C, D, and E), 257 stops and
587 km (365 mi) of rails connect Paris to
more distant parts of the urban area.
Tramway: Paris region is served by a light
rail network of nine lines, the tramway: Line
T1 runs from Asnières-Gennevilliers to
Noisy-le-Sec, Line T2 runs from Pont de
Bezons to Porte de Versailles, Line T3a runs
