City of Orl茅ans

Photo of the Cathedrale Sainte-Croix (Holy Cross Cathedral).

Situated on the banks of the Loire, one hour south of Paris, Orl茅ans is one of the oldest cities in France. It has a remarkable natural environment and a rich history. The city proudly maintains its mix of Roman architecture and Renaissance heritage while serving as an attractive economic and scientific center. Its downtown offers a beautiful Gothic cathedral, a popular medieval square, a concert hall, and a museum of fine arts and natural sciences. On its outskirts, easily accessible by tramway, lies the magnificent Parc Floral across from the university. Boat rides and sailing can be enjoyed on the river all summer.

The photograph above is the Cath茅drale Sainte-Croix (Holy Cross Cathedral) which is a striking example of Gothic architecture.
