Press Release: Lights, Camera, Christmas
Tuesday 20th November 2007
Paris is even more magical than ever during the winter time when the monuments and bridges of Paris are lit up for the festive season. Enjoy a romantic stroll down the charming Champs-Élysées accompanied by thousands of lights sprinkled over the trees that line this famous avenue.
Do your Christmas shopping in style at the magnificent Galeries Lafayette, packed with elegant French gifts and a giant Christmas tree as a centre piece. All this awaits you if you can manage to tear yourself away from the store’s famous window displays long enough to get inside.
Once you’ve dropped off the bags at your hotel, head over to the free ice skating rink at the Place de l'Hôtel de Ville and exercise yourself rather than your wallet. Those who prefer to stay on solid ground can watch the skaters whizz by.
After all that you will probably be in need of sustenance. Warm up with a glass of “vin chaud” at one of Paris’ many Christmas markets.
Visit Paris with Railbookers this winter and stay at the comfortable 3* Mercure Terminus Nord from just £179 per person for 3 nights accommodation with the 3rd night free, including breakfast and return Eurostar travel.
