Paris Ville Lumière: an unforgettable night-time experience in the heart of the capital
To visit Paris, the capital of France, is to discover a city that for centuries has been known as the City of Light. The name dates back to the 17th century, when King Louis XIV decided to illuminate the streets with lanterns and torches to make the city safer and improve night-time traffic.
Accompanied by Jean-Baptiste Colbert, the king introduced an innovative lighting system to combat night-time insecurity. This choice had a profound impact on the history of Paris, helping to forge its unique identity.
In the 19th century, Philippe Lebon’s invention of gas lighting made the capital even more sublime, illuminating monuments and covered passageways and enhancing Paris’s prestige around the world.
