Video Review: Vista Point 32: Paris

Vista Point: Paris is a fast-paced travel video that manages to cram an entire tour of ParisĀ into 26 minutes. It includes historical trivia and info about popular tourist sites, including churches, castles, museums, and points of interest from the French Revolution.

The musical score moves the pace along nicely; this isn’t a video for a leisurely audience. It’s more suited to viewers who want to learn more about the European city without having to sit down and watch a feature length film.

Video highlights include Notre Dame, or “the mother church of the nation,” The Louvre, and the final resting place of Napoleon.

In a nutshell

Vista Point: Paris is a great overview for people who are planning a trip to Paris for the first time or want to take a quick educational trip to the city from their own living rooms. For a more in-depth approach, you probably want to pick another title.
