Episode overview
Paris, its secrets and wonders. The bridges of Paris and the Seine have been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Alberto Angela, aboard a vintage boat, travels the Seine, using the river as a journey through time. Explore Paris in various stops: from the top of the Arc de Triomphe, to the Eiffel Tower, to the towers of the spectacular Notre Dame Cathedral. A must-see is the Eiffel Tower, described in detail by Alberto Angela, and the surprising transformations of Paris at the end of the 19th century: from the birth of the department stores to the many attractions of Montmartre, to the cafés of the Latin Quarter. And then the changes that took place in the 20th century: from Beaubourg to La Défense.
