 Touring the fashion capital of the world

Touring the fashion capital of the worldParis, France is one of the famous fashion capitals of the world so that many students are mesmerized to study fashion in this progressive city with over two million inhabitants. Other fashion capitals include New York City, London, Los Angeles, Tokyo, Sydney and Dubai. I was in Paris last year and we were given the privilege by my aunt to tour the whole of Paris, dream vacation place of many people around the world. Since I also heard Paris as one of the fashion capitals of the world so I made it a point to visit the fashion district to witness personally how this amazing city was tagged as fashion capital of the world. Indeed Paris is not only fashion capital for clothing but also in architecture, landscape and interior design. The place was superbly engineered by great architects and engineers and urban planners that made it really stand out among nations. You can find lots of skyscrapers, landmark architecture and all other superb technology development. One of the beautiful places we visited was the Arc de Triomphe, a landmark arc which stands at the center of the most visited Place Charles de Gaulle. I was kind of amazed of the best architecture of the place. No wonder millions of tourists visited each year because of the fascinating sites and sounds of France. We also had a grand time getting some photos of the Place de la Concorde, the country’s major square which is also located in Paris. The place is superbly designed by Ange-Jacques Gabriel in the middle part of 1755. It was designed with an octagon-shape filled with fountains and statues. It was named Place Louis XV in memory and honor of the then King Louis XV. You can see two magnificent and identical buildings built in stones at the north wing of the place. I also planned to visit the shops of famous fashion clothing designer in Paris like Anna Mika, Kenzo, Jeremy Scott, and Lanvin but never have the time when we get to Paris because of the hectic schedules we had. I really hope to meet them during the days I was in Paris but maybe time is not with us or it’s not the right opportune time as we also unwind ourselves in the pristine beaches of the city.

It really is a glamorous place - and one should make the effort to seek out the excitement and enjoy! Wearing the best, most luxurious clothes of course - and doing as the stars do - in the coctail bars, the dancing halls, the clubs DJed by super-stars and the casinos with the thousands changing hands at the poker tables (a favourite activity of the German tourists). This will be a holiday to remember and there’s no doubt the photos will be like from a magazine!

Remember if it’s the touring holidays you like, think about looking up car rental. Whether it’s a car hire Malaga trip to explore the Moorish Andalucia of Spain or a trip round the fashioon capitals of the States - New York, san Francisco - it’s a great and economic way to travel and you certainly will enjoy seeing the sites of the open road!
