The Celtic Parisii settled on an island in the Seine — today's Île de la Cité — around 250 BCE. Julius Caesar's legions conquered it in 52 BCE after a fierce Gallic revolt. The city grew into one of Europe's greatest medieval centres of learning, and by the time Baron Haussmann bulldozed its medieval alleys in the 1850s to create grand boulevards, Paris had already been reshaping Western civilisation for 2,000 years.

The Eiffel Tower grows about 15cm taller in summer due to thermal expansion of the iron. The best time to take a virtual walk through Paris is spring (april–june) or early fall (september).
