Paris is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. A historic place with breathtaking architecture and the iconic Eiffel Tower, symbol of sophistication that harks back to the days of Louis XIV, the Sun King.

The Bois de Boulogne is set along the western edge of the 16th arrondissement of Paris, near the suburb of Boulogne-Billancourt. In the heart of Bois de Boulogne lies Chateau de Bagatelle, built in 1775 by the Comte d’Artois in a wager with his sister-in-law, Marie Antoinette. Bagatelle’s historic park remained separate and outside the Bois de Boulogne until 1905, when it was purchased by the City of Paris and attached to the park. However, polo had made its way to Bagatelle many years before, inciting Polo de Paris, one of the most glamorous polo clubs in the world. The club’s central location is only ten minutes from the center of Paris and the banks of the Seine.

The Molitor is a swimming pool and hotel complex located in the 16th arrondissement of Paris. It is next to the Bois de Boulogne park. The complex was built in 1929 and is known for its Art Dec designs and the popular introduction of the bikini by Louis Réard on 5 July 1946.  

The pool was classified as a French historical monument on 27 March 1990, after having fallen into disuse and closing in 1989. The swimming pool complex was rebuilt from scratch in the style of the previous historic design. The new complex, which opened in 2014, includes two pools and a four star hotel.

Discreetly located on rue de Grenelle, in the 7th arrondissement, La Petite Chaise embodies an entire page of Parisian culinary history.  Opened in 1680, this unique venue proudly claims the title of oldest restaurant in Paris.

Designed from the outset to welcome lovers of good food, with its horse-rods, vaulted rooms and traditional recipes prized by the aristocracy, La Petite Chaise had everything it took to become an unmissable meeting place of the era, a place to eat well and meet important people.

La Petite Chaise is a refuge of long time, a place where you can have lunch in the same room as an 18ᵉ century academician, dine under the stones that Racine knew and leave with the sensation of having walked through the capital's past.
