Daniel Benchimol continues our tour of Reims. You'll not only see the Cathedral, but a lot of intriguing architectural styles, art deco buildings, and a fifties structure merged with a medieval tower.

Daniel Benchimol is in the charming little town of Saint-Mammès, south of Paris. Its unique location at the confluence of the Seine and the Loing was a source of inspiration for the famous impressionist painter born of British parents, Alfred Sisley.

In this episode, Daniel Benchimol takes us to the Bois de Vincennes, a beautiful green area on the outskirts of Paris. There, we will discover the impressive Vincennes Castle, a tropical agronomy garden, a British-style phone booth, and the highest Buddhist temple in Europe.

Daniel Benchimol takes us to the quiet village of Carrières-sur-Seine, a mere twenty kilometers from Paris. He points out a fun bench called Le banc des menteurs (The Liars' Bench), where one can sit and presumably tell lies until closing time at 7 p.m. Then the liars can take cover in one of the nearby cave dwellings carved straight out of the cliffs.

Daniel Benchimol is in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, where France's King Louis XIV was born. The Parisian suburb is also the site of the summer art exhibition Nouvelles folies à la française (New French Follies). This year's exhibition includes, among other things, a giant four-poster bed floating in the middle of a fountain!

A few kilometers from Paris, on Chatou Island (also known as Impressionists' Island), Daniel Benchimol has a nice surprise for you.... Watch this video to find out what it is!

In this tour of the town of Saint-Germain-en-Laye, you will discover a very old castle built by King Francis the First as well as a quintessentially French marketplace, whose numerous fountains make it the perfect place to cool off in the summer.

In this episode, Daniel Benchimol takes us to the little Gallo-Roman city of Senlis, forty kilometers away from Paris. There, we can discover its fish and vegetable market, its church, and its art and archeology museum.
