Alejandro Valverde Best Moments Season 2009

I Love Touring Paris – the seventh district

The seventh district is on the left bank of the Seine. It houses various government institutions some very important and major tourist attractions. This attractive district occupies about 1.6 square kilometers (just over 4 square kilometers) and has a population of approximately 57 000 people while providing more than 76 thousand jobs.

Some of the best jobs in this district are in the Assemblée Nationale (National Assembly), the lower house of French parliament consisting of 577 elected members called Members (MPs) elected to represent a constituency of one member. The headquarters of the National Assembly is the Palais Bourbon (Bourbon Palace) along the Seine River and some nearby buildings.

The Eiffel Tower is perhaps best known landmark in Paris, known throughout the world. This thousand foot (Three hundred and twenty meters) building, as high as eighty-story buildings, each year attracts more than six million paying visitors. Once the tallest structure in the world right now is only the fifth tallest building high in France. And yet, year after year more visitors pay to see that any other monument in the world.

The Eiffel Tower was built between 1887 and 1889 as the entrance arch for the Exposition Universelle (World Fair) in honor of the centenary of the French Revolution. There was immediately popular. The French writer Guy de Maupassant supposedly ate lunch there every day. When asked why, since everyone knew that he hated the tower, he simply replied "I was the only place in Paris, where he could not see the tower. The original plans were to demolish the tower, after twenty years, but fortunately the plans changed. The tower is used for the transmission of radio broadcasts and served for German television during the occupation of Paris in World War II and other time since 1957.

There is a fancy restaurant with a private elevator on the second floor and another restaurant on the first floor. The Eiffel Tower was struck by lightning in 1902 and 1910 scientists helped discover cosmic rays. And the scammers have managed to sell as scrap. The tower was moved up to 7 inches (18 centimeters) from the sun and balancing on a third goal in the wind. You can climb the first two levels, but will require a higher lift. Once every seven years he has painted three different colors to keep up appearances.

During the Nazi German occupation soldiers climbed to the summit and raised the swastika, but after a few hours the wind blew the rag away. Later, during the War of the tower proudly flying the French flag. During the winter, the first floor houses an ice rink for free. His image at night has been owned. Many, many buildings are taller, but none are as recognizable or perhaps as the favorite.

The Hotel Matignon, completed in 1725 is one of the most elegant mansions of Paris. At that time, the owners authorized any "well dressed" person to visit the house in his absence. Too bad I was not aware of this little piece of history for the last time I was in the neighborhood. The building had seen many including the signing of the famous Matignon Accords in 1936 which established the forty hour work week and paid vacations to the French workers. During the Second World War was used by the government collaborator. According to legend the French resistance leaders who took over the premises was confused between Hotel Matignon Matignon Avenue across the river Seine. In all fairness, I had a lot on his mind. General de Gaulle convened the government of that country in 1944 and again in 1958. Its park is the largest private garden in Paris.

The Field of Mars (Campus Martius) is the name of the Roman god of war and was used for military training. Not far from the military school described below. It was the site of a festival and a slaughter during the French Revolution. The Musée d'Orsay (Orsay Museum) was once a railway station in world's first electrified urban. Charles de Gaulle spoke there in 1958 before taking power. It is now a museum specializing in French art from 1848 to 1914. His collection includes Impressionist masterpieces by Monet, Renoir, and many others.

La Escuela Militar (Military School) was founded in 1750 by Louis XV. Madame de Pompadour was part of this project aimed to enable poor children to become officers of cadets. Napoleon Bonaparte was a good student who graduated from a two-year program in a single year, but often now (since she was nine years old) to another French military school. Be sure to visit the nearby Les Invalides (Invalides) complex built in 1670 as a retirement home for war veterans has been expanded to include a hospital for soldiers, war memorials, war and museums. Many war heroes of France are buried there as a hero of France's biggest war of them all, Napoleon Bonaparte and his family.

The Musée Rodin (Rodin Museum) opened in 1919 at the Hotel Biron, where the artist lived from 1908. Contains most of his great works as The Thinker and The Kiss. You will see many of his sculptures in the gardens. Other great artists and sculptors such as Van Gogh, Rodin and Claudel are represented in the museum.

The Institut d'Etudes Politiques de Paris (Paris Institute Political Studies), often called Sciences Po is one of the largest educational institutions in France. Among their topics of choice are political science, economics, business, communications, finance, journalism, law, administration and urban studies. It was established in 1872 by French entrepreneurs, intellectuals and politicians following France's defeat in the Franco-Prussian war of 1870 and the Paris Commune the following year. In recent years, Sciences Po has a few students of poor suburban areas outside Paris, a French version of the city. This is in contrast to its elite student body generally. The undergraduate program is usually be three years with the third year abroad or an internship. Of course there are Master's and Doctoral programs. Students must be proficient in at least two foreign languages and fluent in French. Many French leaders such as Chirac and Mitterand, thirteen former prime ministers and a whole lot of world leaders are former students, teachers or both.

Of course I do not want to visit Paris without sampling fine wine and French food. In my article I Love French Wine food 'Bordeaux Merlot I reviewed a wine and suggested a sample menu: Start with Gravette Huitres (Oysters from the Arcachon Bay). For your second course savor Lamproie au Pomerol (Eels cooked in red wine and chocolate). And as dessert indulge yourself with Cannelle de Bordeaux (Portable Cr? Brûlée). His sommelier of Paris (sommelier) will happy to suggest appropriate wines to accompany each dish.
