This video is all about the people of France, from the ancient Franks and Gauls to the present-day population, which currently numbers over sixty-six million inhabitants.

Lionel takes us to the historic part of the city of Metz and to the Galerie Saint-Jacques, where you can browse the shops and go to restaurants. The shopping mall is located on one of the largest squares of the city, the Place Saint-Jacques.

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!

Lionel takes us to Metz, a city that was once part of Germany, being only some sixty kilometers from the German border. In this video you will learn a few facts about this Germanic city, and you will add a lot of useful terms to your going-about-town vocabulary.

Daniel Benchimol stops by the thirteenth arrondissement of Paris and takes us inside Mireille Bailly-Coulange's sculpture studio. You'll see her exquisite art made out of Plexiglas and learn about her fascinating technique. And... don't be alarmed if you hear her dog's loud bark toward the end of the video. He's just sharing his enthusiasm.

In this episode, Pierre Esparre, a fine mosaic artist, explains how he discovered his talent and how he gets his inspiration from everyday life, whether it's a street scene, a YouTube video, or an Internet page. Watch this video to see how Pierre translates his ideas into quirky, humorous, and eye-catching creations.

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.

In this fourth and final episode on the medieval town of Provins, Daniel Benchimol takes us inside the Tour César (Caesar Tower). From this tower, you'll have an amazing view of the whole city and its surroundings. You can also climb up the tower and discover its three-ton bell.

In this last video on the Côte d'Azur, you'll learn the French expressions for all the essential items for a perfect beach day. If you visit the beautiful Côte d'Azur, make sure to bring an extra comfortable towel—its beaches are filled with pebbles instead of sand!

In this third episode on the medieval town of Provins, Daniel Benchimol shows us a monument coming from Brazil, an old synagogue, and a beautiful church where Joan of Arc attended mass with King Charles the Seventh. He also gives us a glimpse into Provins real estate, with a beautiful house that has been estimated at a modest price of six million dollars!

In Part 2 of his tour of Provins, Daniel Benchimol takes us to a unique show called "The Eagles of the Ramparts." In this very exciting show, we can see the different kinds of birds of prey and how they are trained to hunt in flight in the heart of the medieval city of Provins.

Our trusty guide Daniel Benchimol takes us to the outskirts of Paris to the medieval city of Provins. There you can admire its ramparts that are still intact in places, enjoy its equestrian shows, and follow the historic road to Paris on your way back.

In the second installment of this video on the Côte d'Azur, our tour guide shows us around one of the area's beautiful pebble beaches, which are a favorite of the locals but not very well-known to tourists. In addition to providing endless ammunition for skipping stones on the sea, the pebbles also help break up the waves during heavy storms.

Lionel takes us to the small town of Wissembourg (or "Weißenburg," since it's situated in Alsace where German is spoken as well). It boasts a beautiful church and a nice restaurant where Lionel goes to be "crowned." Another one of his signature jokes and puns await you in this video.

Daniel Benchimol takes us to the Bois de Boulogne, a very popular forest park over twice the size of New York's Central Park. There, you will be able to eat at the Grande Cascade [Grand Waterfall] restaurant, named after a nearby waterfall, that is only accessible by boat, or you could go for a stroll and gaze up at a 150-year-old cedar tree.
