is built on a wide curve in the Seine, a river that flows all
the way to the English Channel. The Seine divides the city into
two banks, north and south, with a couple of small but historically

the past two millennia, the City literally outgrew its fortified
walls to encompass an increasing number of surrounding boroughs

ranging from the narrow, winding passageways of the Marais on
the Right Bank, to the pedestrian streets of the Latin Quarter
on the Left Bank.

in 20 districts, it could be compared to a collection of smaller
villages to which local dwellers have a strong sense of belonging.
