Paris, the city of light / Παρίσι, η πόλη του φωτός
Paris is the capital and the most populous city of France. Paris is often referred to as "The City of Light", both because of its leading role during the Age of Enlightenment, and more literally because Paris was one of the first European cities to adopt gas street lighting. In the 1860s, the boulevards and streets of Paris were illuminated by 56,000 gas lamps.
