Bonjour mes amies! You've probably heard a lot about what it's like to tour France, from food and fashion, to historic sites and architecture. Yet, France is more than a tourist destination packed with bicycles, baguettes and berets.

With a history filled with political and artistic revolutions and centuries of leading the fashion and art world, France is also the home to some of the most influential artists and world-renowned chefs. Theoretically, one could spend years seeing the sites of the country, let alone, it's capital city, Paris.

Get started with your trip to France below! And, don't forget to check out our 24/17 series where 17-year-old Pierre shares his insight into the secular nation's political and religious taboos and where to hang out with friends.
