Sometimes there’s nothing like watching a movie to rejuvenate or even spark interest in a certain area or place. If Paris isn’t already on your must-see list after watching delights like Funny Face or French Kiss, the latest film from director Sofia Coppola may just nudge the City of Lights and the surrounding area to the top of your list.
A recent story in the Travel section of the New York Daily News cited Coppola’s Marie Antoinette and some “newly hip neighborhoods” as motivators to visit or revisit some of the history and lore of France. The film is mostly set in Versailles, a nice day trip just a short train ride from Paris. And, of course, aside from the classic Parisian tourist attractions, there are revamped neighborhoods like the Marais, Bastille and Bercy to explore.
Whether your idea of “doing” Paris is taking in as much history as possible or eating exquisite food or browsing outdoor markets, New York Habitat can help authenticate your experience by placing you in Paris accommodations smack in the middle of the locals. We also offer furnished apartment in Paris, taking into consideration your budget, length of stay and particular needs while staying in the city.
If it’s a cinematic experience you’d like to have, New York Habitat has that covered as well. Perhaps you’ve always wanted to descend the stairs in the Louvre like Audrey Hepburn or take in the charm of the Montmartre café where the title character in Amelie worked or stroll Saint Germain like Kate Hudson’s character in Le Divorce. Or maybe it’s something more grand you’re envisioning, like the palace of Versailles a la Marie Antoinette.
New York Habitat can help make it a reality. Isn’t that just a little irresistible?
There are a lot of good movies filmed in Paris. From action movies such as the Bourne Identity trilogy to mysteries like the Da Vinci Code. Also a romantic comedy 2 Days in Paris, and of course Amelie, a famous French movie. Paris is a great place for sights and obviously has a lot great scenery for cinema.
