I’ve been to Paris twice and it is not as romantic, friendly or as nice as it is portrayed on Tv. I’ve been to much nicer cities in Europe such as Porto and Valencia, far more charming and the people of Spain and Portugal are lovely.

Viena (Austria) is so much lovelier, cheaper, safer and cosier fot long walks. Also Austrian food and cakes are delicious. Nothing in Paris like the parks in Viena, and people in Viena are happier and friendlier, while in Paris local people are arrogant and racist.

I'll never be able to afford to travel overseas but if I could I'd go to Ireland, Scotland, Australia or Italy

Paris / France has never been on my bucket list; I've heard about it not being a friendly place & the locals being a horrible set of people. Additionally romance is a thing of the past in that dump. I'm glad I haven't bothered experiencing it for myself, I'll take people's word

Sarah, I am French and I cannot stand those people or that place! I left the country over 20 years ago, without regrets.

How fascinating!! I’ve never had a desire to visit any of the major capitals; it’s the rural areas and small towns I’d love to visit-in any country or continent!

I do love Paris I’ve been there in several occasions, Paris has many different things to offer other than the tourists hotspots. If you are willing to search you will be pleasantly surprised.

Wow. Reading all these negative comments. I had a beautiful time in Paris and everyone I came across were so wonderful. Maybe sometimes it’s nice to the other person, maybe sometimes it’s just you.

I adore Paris, not for the way it has been portrayed as "romantic" but the history as well additionally, the view from the Eiffel tower is exceptional but freakishly scary at the same time.

I went through France once, and stopped in Paris for something to eat, I thought they were so rude . My granddaughter had a gap yr from university and did a nanny’s job there and she said they were really nice

go to Romania. Bucharest has so many huge parks/gardens. Paris is neither the romantic, nor cheapest, nor nicest. Other places in the world pass Paris by far with excellent food, nice architecture, beautiful streets...beautiful everything

Liz, I agree with you, about being thankful where we live. And not to judge others. This earth belongs to the Creator, and he has given it to the sons of man. It's up to us to take care of the earth if we do every where will be beautiful.
