Study in France

1

Cultural Dynamism

Food, wine, art, fashion, history, literature, and a work-life balance are all important parts of French culture. While many people identify French culture with the country's capital city of Paris, there is lots to see and do around the country! Exhibitions, concerts, the theatre, and the darkened room at the movie are all popular pastimes among the French. French culture has plenty to offer with the advent of summer. Films, plays, paintings, and other works of art created in France are also a glimpse into the country's well-known art of living.
