History
Cathédrale de Notre Dame de Paris
BARBARA VAN ZANTEN
Few nations have a history as rich and rewarding as France. With
everything from ancient artworks to Gothic cathedrals and regal
châteaux, France often feels like one long history textbook. Even the tini-
est towns and villages are littered with reminders of the nation's often
turbulent past. Encompassing everything from courtly intrigue to intellec-
tual enlightenment, artistic endeavour and bloody revolution, one thing's
for sure - French history certainly isn't dull.
