How to Visit France

1.) The Louvre

First stop is almost always the most famous art museum in the history of France and probably the world, The Louvre. It houses some great artistic talents including the famously infamous Leonardo da Vinci. His Mona Lisa is still the top attraction, and that secretive, knowing smile of hers is always a must-see.

2.) The Eiffel Tower

Next on the list is, of course, the Eiffel Tower. It was once ridiculed by ancient artists as a monstrosity but is now regarded as one of Paris, Franceâ??s best works of art. Inside, you can get souvenirs, have your postcards stamped with the Eiffel Tower insignia and dine in their restaurants.

3.) French Riviera

Within its borders, you will find the famous tourist destinations Nice, Cannes and St. Tropez. Its beaches are so breathtaking and magnificent, and they are perfect for a romantic rendezvous. The scene also becomes a little wilder once the parties get rolling in the evenings.

4.) The Cathedral of Notre Dame

Victor Hugoâ??s famous book has this as the backdrop of his entire story where we all learned to love the brave and endearing hunchback. Famous for its stone architecture complete with towering religious icons, gothic design capturing different faces of gargoyles, the Notre Dame Cathedral shouldnâ??t be missed. As such, this place should always be in the itinerary of anyone visiting France.

5.) Napoleonâ??s Arc de Triomphe

This was built in honor of the French military who fought alongside Napoleon, and this is one of Franceâ??s famous historic landmarks. Some say that if you donâ??t know your way around Paris, you could end up going around in circles in the Arc de Triomphe and never get out. They also say that you could get so confused which way to go because traffic is going around the arc.

6.) Disneyland

Paris, too, has a Disneyland of its own. It has the trademark rides, parades, fireworks display, and attractions all Disneyland theme parks are famous for. But, of course, there is still something that is uniquely Franceâ??s alone.

7.) Historic Normandy

Perhaps the most famous place in France when it comes to history is Normandy. Normandy has seen too many wars and fought too many battles for France. The most famous event here is the burning of Joan of Arc in 1431.

8.) Lourdes

The apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary during the 19th century to Bernadette Soubirous have made this place a popular destination for pilgrims and devotees of the Blessed Virgin Mary. As such, this place has also become a tourist destination. If you are a devotee of the Blessed Virgin Mary, then this place is for you.

9.) Musee dâ??Orsay

This magnificent museum of art found inside a railway station is a testimony of how much the French love and revere art. Because of this, they will impart this love to anyone and everyone who is interested. So, if you are an art lover, then head on to Musee dâ??Orsay.

10.) Vineyards

France is famous for its wine tours. You can take your pick from Alsace to Rhone Valley on which vineyards to visit where you can do a little wine tasting or perhaps even jump in and join grape harvesting. Truly a uniquely French experience!

5 Celebrities and Their Hot Russian Lovers

As many Americans are aware, Russians are a hot commodity in today’s society. Not only the women, but the men as well. Don’t believe me? Here are five examples of well-known celebrities and their Russian sweethearts.

1. Leonardo DiCaprio and Anne Vyalitsyna

Could Leonardo DiCaprio be dating another sexy model? Though unconfirmed, rumors abound about DiCaprio’s romantic involvement with hot Russian model Anne Vyalitsyna. The two allegedly met in July while DiCaprio was in London filming his movie “Inception,” and sources say the two have been hot and heavy ever since. After several sightings of the duo visiting various restaurants and nightclubs together one can only speculate on the true nature of their relationship. For now, neither party is talking. Twenty-three-year-old Anne Vyalitsyna, also known as Anne V, is a 5’10” beauty best known for her consecutive 5-year run in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. She has also appeared on the covers of Vogue, ELLE, Glamour, and Gloss.

2. Naomi Campbell and Vladislav Doronin

Speaking of models, thirty-eight-year-old supermodel Naomi Campbell and Russian boyfriend Vladislav Doronin are rumored to be planning a wedding, though neither has publicly confirmed a date. Campbell and Doronin met at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2008 and the two have been inseparable ever since. The couple frequently vacation on Doronin’s yacht off St. Tropez in the South of France, and Campbell has even moved to Moscow to be closer to her Russian lover. While Campbell has reportedly met Doronin’s parents, we’ll just have to wait and see if those wedding rumors are true. Vladislav Doronin, known as Moscow’s Donald Trump, is a Russian billionaire property tycoon. The 46-year-old Doronin was recently named the 221st richest person in Russia by a Moscow-based magazine.

Cannes Luxury Hotels

There are no doubt a number of renowned Cannes luxury hotels in the Cote D’Azur-we have stayed at one such luxury hotel just outside Cannes.

My wife and I flew from Birmingham Airport in England to Nice Airport in the South of France in early June to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary at a luxury hotel called Le Mas Candille about 10 km north of Cannes in a beautiful village called Mougin which has numerous artists shops/galleries and restaurants-a lovely old place to just meander around.

Le Mas Candille is indeed one of Cannes luxury hotels.

We drove up to the entrance gate of the hotel in the heat of the afternoon in a rented Peugeot 206 Cabriolette to be met by the gate attendant who let us through to drive down the tree lined long driveway arriving at the front of the hotel where we were greeted outside by two members of staff who took our luggage and parked our car. After a speedy check in we were shown to our bedroom in the original part of the building which was exquisitely furnished with a luxurious bathroom. French doors from the bedroom opened onto our own private terrace where breakfast can be taken if you so desire.

Le Mas Candille has 39 bedrooms -some located in a seperate modern building. It is set in several acres of well tended grounds with 2 outdoor swimming pools surrounded by sun loungers and hammocks. There are outdoor jacuzzis and a small outdoor gym with the most breathtaking views while you work out. The hotel has its own spa which offers all the usual treatments-my wife commented that the massage was the best she had ever received.

There are several quality restaurants at some of Cannes luxury hotels but the main restaurant at Le Mas Candille is a gastronomic michelin starred restaurant of the highest standard-service is impeccable and the food a delight. Dinner on our wedding anniversary was an evening to be remembered. There is a more informal restaurant by one of the swimming pools which again is superb-we usually ate breakfast here beneath the morning sun.

Le Mas Candille is an exclusive spa hotel which is without doubt one of Cannes luxury hotels.
