3France

France has long been associated with art, fashion, philosophy, and cuisine. Paris, its capital, is often called the “City of Lights” and is home to the Louvre, the world’s most famous art museum. French culture is deeply tied to its revolutionary history, intellectual movements, and its culinary finesse. From the wine regions of Bordeaux to the lavender fields of Provence, French culture is rich and varied. French literature, from the works of Voltaire to Proust, and French fashion, represented by designers like Coco Chanel, continue to influence the world.
