France is well known for its fine art, tasty food and romantic scenery. About 75million visitors come here every year.

France is the largest country in Western Europe. It has a population of over 66million. The country is home to many famous places of interest, like the River Seine as well as the Eiffel Tower.

Many visitors also come for the country's art. Sculptor (雕刻家) Auguste Rodin and painter Claude Monet once created their great works here. If you visit France today, it is not a surprise to meet street artists in the city or come across a singer in the subway.

No visit to Paris is complete without a trip to Louvre, one of the largest and most famous museums in the world. Inside, there are 35,000works of art, such as the painting Mona Lisa by Da Vinci and the statue (雕塑) David by Michelangelo. It would take nine months to enjoy all the pieces.

Besides, French food is world famous. Bread is very important in France. The best known French bread is called a baguette. They are long, delicious and taste salty. Snails (蜗牛) are also a must﹣have here. French people eat 40,000tons of snails every year!
