Paris is also a city full of the most remarkable and the most visited museums in the world. The Louvre holds a large collection of the most amazing paintings, sculptures and art works. This museum houses many famous art pieces such as the Mona Lisa (La Joconde) and works by Pablo Picasso. The city is not only well known for its cultural and historic heritage but also well known for its Fashion.

The Emirates Stadium is the home-stadium for Arsenal F.C. located in London, England. The stadium offers you to share the matchday experience of the world-famous football players. You will be able to go through the changing room, walk down the tunnel towards the football field. Recently two new areas were added as a part of the tour- Arsene Wenger's Office, where the manager of the club is preparing for the match and the Physio Room, where players are getting ready for the game while receiving their pre-match massages.
Leaving the Stadium, you can easily access many amazing landmarks and sights through the convenient transport.

project in the world, is a defense system. For thousands of years,
it had protected the ancient Chinese empire against the enemies.
This long wall, just like a huge dragon, winds up and down across
deserts, grasslands, mountains and plateaus, stretching about
21,196 kilometers from west to east of China. It is certainly the No. 1 famous attraction in China.
