Sports
France is full of folk and pop culture. France is a magnificent place to visit to find amazing culture. While visiting France, there was a tennis tournament going on. Of course I found myself inside the game itself. Tennis is so popular in France that It is the second biggest sport along with soccer, or as they call it Football.
Agriculture One of the most famous structure in Paris, France is of course the Eiffel Tower. You can’t go to France without visiting the Eiffel Tower. Even if you didn't want to visit the Eiffel Tower there is no way you can miss it. The Eiffel Tower is 300 meters tall. It has become the symbol of the city of light. Of course at the time the Eiffel Tower was the tallest structure in the world in 1889.
Food
France famous pastry is Macarons, which means fine dough. Macarons are made with almond flour, sugar, and egg whites. The Macaron has been around since 1547 but it wasn't really popular until the 20th century. Now you can find these delicious cookies in almost any bakery. Macarons are not the only pastry food that France is famous for. France is famous for Crepes. Crepes are like thin pancakes made from wheat flour.
Language
French is one of the ninth most spoken languages. As crazy as it sounds French is one of the “Romance” languages. While visiting France almost everyone speaks french. To say hello and goodbye is “bonjour” and “au revoir”. Since poodles are very popular in France of course I really wanted one. The way you say “I wish I had a poodle” in french is “Je voudrais avoir un caniche”.
