A city of global culture

Paris, the city of global culture

Today I’m going to speak about the city of Paris which represent for me the global culture, I’m going to show you why.

One of the characteristics of Paris, compared to its main European competitor, London, is the lack of promotion concerning its multicultural character abroad. Indeed, Paris is obviously first of all known world-wide for its romance, and all its stereotypes as wine, bread and beret.

However, in terms of population, Paris has a multi-ethnic profile as the capital of the United Kingdom, although it is difficult to measure those exactly, because of the lack of statistics taking into account the origin in France.

Paris is of the first global cities, it has attracted the world’s brightest and the most far- off for centuries, from artists to tourists, to writers, emigrant or even pioneer or scientist. It is at once famous for fashion and food and also attracts millions of travelers to its museums, operas, streets, coffees, as well as continuing to hold a key place on an international stage.

The city is today one of the most important and a business and cultural center; entertainment, music, media, and the arts all contribute to its status as one of the world's major global cities. It is known for its sophistication, cultural prestige, and global influence. In studying abroad there, you will benefit from living in this diverse and cosmopolitan European capital city.

It’s a cosmopolite city, a place of meeting and share with its several and various districts where all the nationalities and communities are living since the different waves of immigration of the 70’s. There is a Polish quarter on the first borough, an African on the fifteenth. There is also a Chinese one on the thirteenth which is famous a lot and a Japonese on the second. Finally, there are a Jewish quarter and the Little India on the tenth which is represent on the picture I post. I choose this it because I think it represent so well the diversity of communities of different nations and cultures living in Paris.

Therefore, Paris is a city that represents well the global culture thanks to the diversity of its population but also thanks to its history and cultural resources.
