- Friday afternoon drive into the stunning skyscraper district of Paris! Europe's largest purpose-built business district, La Defense, has 72 glass and steel buildings, 220 stores, 48 restaurants, 25,000 permanent residents, and 45,000 students. A great place to see when you visit Paris just 3 miles or 5 kilometers from the tourist district! Video starts on the Champs-Élysées facing the Arc de Triomphe and continues straight into LA Defense. Hope you enjoy it and have a great weekend!

Tourism recovered in the Paris region in 2021, increasing to 22.6 million visitors, thirty percent more than in 2020, but still well below 2019 levels. The number of visitors from the United States increased by 237 percent over 2020.
Tourism in Paris is a major income source. Paris received 12.6 million visitors in 2020, measured by hotel stays, a drop of 73 percent from 2019.

I never expected to see so much modern architecture in Paris (12:20-16:40), but I have to admit some of the styles were pretty good. But i still like the older buildings better.
There are places in Paris with quite recent architecture but most of the video actually doesn't take place in Paris but in the famous district of La Défense which is in a neighbouring city .
It's a special district, and the only one with skyscrapers. It's not in Paris proper. Central Paris is still very old.
I think it has its own look and is pretty cool
@ His Chicago and New York videos were far more beautiful than this
Yeah looks like Singapore, boring
It also looks very unclean and congested.
You know i am learning to drive and your videos help me a lot and with the stress of driving. Now i am confident in my driving, keep it up!
don't speed and make sure to check your blind spots

We went to Defence few years back when we visited Paris. Such a contrast with the old city. Although, living in Toronto now, I much prefer the old charm and architecture of Paris.
The architecture in Paris is truly incredible! Thanks for sharing!
yes is amazing architecture
But Paris looks very unclean and congested. I am very disappointed.
What you're seeing in this video is not Paris
@@Prince077Aussie I'm french and it's the case
It looks like typical American city, what's soo truly incredible about it?
What i love from Paris is that they still have the classic buildings.
it looks so clean
Beautiful view of skyscrapers as you drive along Downtown Paris. Tnx4sharing full watched.
I had no idea downtown Paris looked like that. It's stunning! Usually, the areas with the older and shorter buildings is all we see in movies and photos and shit. Not that those areas aren't beautiful too, but it's nice to see a different side to downtown Paris than just that. Thanks for taking us around.
This isn't really downtown Paris. It's La Défense a business district outside the city itself. Many cities in Europe do this, London has Canary Wharf, Amsterdam has Amsterdam Zuid, etc.

Downtown is an American word that does not apply to European cities!!
@@dicdicd1767 Whatever. You know what I'm saying.
@@ChrisTheAspergerGuy yes 😉
Paris, the capital city of the whole Europe.
Paris is an incredible place to visit because while driving you observe the nature and the city, but I think that Paris has great streets than other cities from other countries. ❤❤❤🥰💖💙💜
You're wrong, Vienna is more beautiful, cleaner and safer than Paris.
All Australian cities look much cleaner and far superior than Paris.
@@alexandermuller950 Lol Viennes is beautiful but you don't compare it to paris. Paris has a unique architecture and there is no city that has the same. That's why Paris is beautiful. It is useless to compare two totally different cities
@@Prince077Aussie Australian cities are the same cities as in the United States and Canada. A city center with skyscrapers and houses all around, nothing beautiful. Especially since these cities are made for the car which is the opposite of European cities which on the contrary develop on public transport. I don't see what looks cleaner in these cities. There is nothing special and nothing superior.
@@rayan95200 Lol in my opinion Vienna is more beautiful and cleaner than Paris, which is underrated and there are trash and shits all over the streets. It's so touristy, crowded, unsafe and noisy. On the other hand, Vienna is more peaceful, safer and neater than Paris.
And in my perspective, the architectures in the capital of Austria, Wien is more beautiful, properly maintained and well designed than Paris. Afterall it's known as the city of classical music! 🇦🇹❤️
To complete this beautiful video, it's important to specify that what is called "downtown" in this video, is not really located in Paris. This business district called "La Défense" is located in the western outskirts of Paris, mainly in the towns of "Nanterre" and "Puteaux". Like in many European cities, there's a desire to not mix (or as little as possible) historic architecture with modern architecture. However, because European cities are smaller than American ones, it's accepted that these business centers are part of the city they are supposed to serve. So, even in France we speak of the district of "La Défense" as being located in Paris. (It's not like it's located 60 km/40 miles away)
Just to be a little bit more specific, if French cities or communes are indeed smaller than American ones, it is rather untrue on a European level
Anyway very good comment 👍
@@thibault4211 France has 35,000 communes, while countries such as Germany, Italy or Spain only have only 8,000. So yeah, communes are territorially smaller units in France than in the rest of Europe, which doesn't mean that urban areas are smaller. From the commune of Paris to the business district of La Défense, you stay in a very densely built-up area, you don't really leave the "city" in that sense. In the US, a "city" generally refers to everything in the metropolitan area up to 50 km away from the center.
Thank you for bringing us the way you see the world. It's truly amazing. Appreciate it! ❤❤❤
amazing country paris
Wow I didn’t know European cities have skyscrapers lol especially ancient cities like Paris. Beautiful city nonetheless. ❤️
Paris, the "City of Lights" and the "City of Love" always generates some excitement, no matter how many times you've visited.
i must visit paris someday when im rich
@@Fujifansetia well trust me when I tell you that it is not as beautiful as many thinks it is 😂 just trust me tv lies to you about paris it tough out there
Its bloody huge as well. I mean Berlin is a lot bigger city on area but it feels so much smaller.
@shalbec3232 You are so right 😂😂😂I am in Paris now from San Francisco 🇺🇸🇺🇸I am disappointed 🤣😂😂😂
Cidade com arquitetura incrível!
Actually it isn't Paris. There are many cities called like Nanterre, Puteaux, Courbevoie in this area. In addition they are located in another department .
But definitely it is " Must see" because it is financial district. Moreover it is a good driving experience to drive there.👍
the world famous « La Défense » district for the connoisseurs 👍
Спасибо м.р Драйв!!!Париж Очарователен Высотки со Стеклянными Витражами Мосты- Тонельки городские впечатление космическим оттенком!!!

Hello! Thank you for the beautiful tour. 😃 Amazing Paris! Enjoyed watching. Have a nice day 😊
Wow.... amazing driving around in Paris
Paris is simply a work of art.
I would say that the whole Europe is a work of art. Paris is pretty overrated city ngl.
Just some parts of it. Imho beautiful but somewhat overrated city.
@@alexandermuller950 His Chicago and New York videos were far more beautiful than Paris
@@alexandermuller950 Chicao, New York videos are far far morebeautiful than Paris, certainly bette than Berlin
@@darylgrimes2601 paris is more beautiful than New York
Even the new part looks really good. It's generic, but also very imposing and buildings got a nice style to them
It’s so beautiful sharing, thumbs up
I think Paris will be the biggest modern city in the future like nyc
No.to build skyscrapers is not allowed in Paris
The new Paris feels like London and Tokyo combined together. Thanks for sharing.
Is not Paris
Nice ! happy Bastille Day weekend
I am from india and i love the way u make continuous driving videos in 4k…awesome👍🏻💯😁
Same city like this is in india also
This city it is amazing
Many people dont know abt the business district of paris ...many just tend to believe that paris is just historic and modern at same time ..pretty much like london
thank you for making a very beautiful scene of paris city, you made the closest shot and walked around the foot of the EIFFEL tower and your church, I hope the video you edited and made is on the channel, support and love the channel so much, thank you.
What a city Amazingly Beautiful😍
Would love to visit this city once in my life❤️ from🇵🇰💚

thank you for sharing this video
vietnam street thank you for sharing good video. Hope your health is good and successful,
Até que enfim uma Europa com cara de século 21.
A arquitetura antiga, o acervo histórico é muito bonito mas TB nn dá pra viver aprisionado ao passado né.
i had no idea there is skyscraper in paris ! i thought it's all vintage
Wao Beautiful Tour 🥰👍
I love you París 🤗
There is a lot of construction work hope it gets finished fast!
Thanks for excellent filming!👍👍💯💕
Great video
This summer has been so endlessly sunny in Paris that I forgot the sky indeed often looks like this :’)
I love La Defense skyscraper part of Paris.
Wish you good luck to building more skyscrapers there.
Greetings from czech republic. ^w^
I live in Warsaw. It is several times smaller city. I have the impression that its development is heading in this direction. I notice more and more similarities. And that's not good news.
Nice
I adore Paris because it still has its historic buildings.
beautiful city👌👌
big like! subed also. keep the good work up from your friends in Ireland 🇮🇪
nice video, i love paris
Never been to France but one day i'll take a drive :)
Excellent dear friend 😍

Beautiful! Thanks
خليك فاكر وأنت تايه و متلخبط و بتفكر في خطواتك الجاية و الحياة هتمشي إزاى و المستقبل مخبّي إيه .. ادعي ربنا يكون معاك في كل خطوة ويختارلك ما يخيركش و يرزقنا البصيرة و الحكمة و يحقق أمانينا لو فيها الخير و يرضينا بأقداره مهما كانت .. !!
و عزاء الواحد الوحيد في الدنيا دي إن ربك قادر يعدل كل حاجة في لحظة .. قادر يجبر خاطرك .. يرد المظالم .. ينزل لطفه .. قادر يحول كل خوف جواك من المستقبل لأمان في لحظة واحدة .. !!💛
Well done 👍🌹🌹

I want to visit paris , ❤️ from Indonesia
Ở Việt Nam lại được trải nghiệm đường phố Paris 🇻🇳
very nice 👍👍
It's indeed a great City , but I'm very disappointed to see how Graffiti destroys the cities like Paris , its everywhere on almost every wall esp in centre of city , and trash can be seen too in city center , really didn't expect that plus the infrastructure also looks in bad shape.
But Paris is still Paris ❤️🇫🇷
But u r an immigrant tho

Thank you for making this video. I would not visit Paris to see this part of it. It could be anywhere in the world. The buildings are simply big, tall glass boxes devoid of style and charm. I noticed that there are few people walking around in this area, probably because it’s not built at a human scale. This is not the type of architecture that feels inviting. It is meant to impress but nothing more. Not Paris’ finest.
It's just that the pedestrian areas are above and separated from car traffic. You can notice the many footbridges.
The heart of La Defense is big pedestrian squares but you can't see it from a car.
Perché stai sempre sulla corsia di sinistra e non a destra se vai dritto?
I would like a video to bogota.
Greetings from Colombia...
I really wish I had gotten to see more of France than I did. My iPhone got stolen on the second day there, and having to deal with the Paris Apple Store employees just put me off the rest of the trip. They're bad enough in the States; the French ones were enough to drive a person homicidal. Which is a real shame, because I'm really a fan of European architecture, and Paris seems to have the best of it.
Hopefully my next trip there will be better. Quite frankly, it couldn't be worse...
But enough of me nattering on. I think I'll just enjoy the video. Another excellent job.
Amazing 😍😍😍😍💜
Good 👍
What is the name of this state?
big like number 785! subbed also. keep the good work up from your friends in Ireland. we film running videos from Ireland 🇮🇪

Paris as well as France reminds me of L.A..
good video
i was visit marselli in france,but paris not yet,someday i will visit,but i was visiting parisian in macau,u can see in my video,
As a person who lived in Paris, it frustrates me that you call downtown what’s actually La Défense business district located in the SUBURBS of Courbevoie, Nanterre, Puteaux. SUBURBS my man, not downtown. It’s not even in Paris legally speaking. There are no and legally cannot be any skyscrapers in downtown Paris. Skyscrapers are prohibited within city limits of Paris.
Pour n’importe quel étranger c’est Paris. Il est con ton commentaire.
À l’origine Paris c’est l’ile de la cité, puis des communes sont venues s’y ajouter progressivement ( saint germain, montparnasse, monmartre ... ) devenant ainsi "des quartiers ou arrondissements" et aujourd’hui dans la même continuité il y’a une très forte volonté politique d’y incorporer les communes périphériques, d’ou le projet du Grand Paris Express qui est ni plus ni moins que le lien ou raccord physique de ces communes, donc dans cette perspective le quartier de la défense comme tout le monde ou presque le nomme déjà y est totalement integré.
Quel commentaire de parisien, c'est Paris, point barre, l'air urbaine est bien comprise au sein de la ville, comme partout en France, putain de de citadin
Yea how about no
The business district of any city is the downtown. What "downtown" you are referring to is only downtown de jure, what it actually is is the old town.
Greeting from 🇮🇩
Why is nobody talking about this part of paris??
Oh nah, I think I’m just gonna take the metro instead of a rental 😂
That's a much more intelligent choice
Wow, I even like Amsterdams Business District called Zuidas more.
A better view of this district here. La Défense is the largest business district in Europe :
ua-cam.com/video/d761d4nHHAI/v-deo.html
It's like Gurugram
there is one signal in Kandivali, the people living around in that area dump all the garbage on that signal, and animals flock there creating a ruckus and leading a traffic jam every day, it's been going on for 15 years and I can see. Well, the list will go on and on. Yes, there are a few good things, that's why we are living here, and with the hope that one-day things will improve. But calling it DUBAI - not yet. Abhi bahot time baaki hai. For that you need to spend a few months in both cities and cover all parts to make such a statement. Cheers
Thank god the people of Paris forced these mega corporations to put their eyesore and soulless tall buildings far away from their historic and beautiful Paris. We don't need Paris to be turned into another ugly NYC. Anyway, thanks for sharing this part of Paris, J Utah.
I don't find them so ugly. Haha. Also, you'd be surprised to see Europeans going to America or Asia and be fascinated by the tall buildings.
