Join us for a weekend trip to the biggest Retro Car Show in France on

strain as you enjoy the high spped train journey from London St

2017 Retromobile Paris. Boosted by the successes of previous years,
the 2016 Retromobile will be held in Hall 1, the largest and most
prestigious hall at the Porte de Versailles Exhibition Centre, Paris. This
means more space for exhibitors, more comfort for visitors, more
reasons to buy, to dream, to find out information and to admire new and
old products. There will be more artists, more clubs, more federations,
more spare parts and scale model vendors, more events organisers,
more restorers, coachbuilders and car sellers doing their level best to
satisfy visitors from the four corners of the world. There are even more
surprises that only this show can offer.

Places to Visit
Arc De Triomphe
The most monumental of all triumphal arches was built between 1806
and 1836. Even though there were many modifications from the original
plans, reflecting political changes and power struggles, the Arch still
retains the essence of the original concept which was a powerful,
unified ensemble. It’s located at the western end of the ChampsÉlysées.
La Tour Eiffel
Located on the Champ de Mars in Paris, France, the Eiffel Tower is
one of the most well known structures in the world. The Eiffel Tower
was originally built as the entrance arch for the World's Fair in 1889.
The structure is 320 metres (1050 feet) in height and was the tallest
man made structure in the world for 41 years before being surpassed
by the Chrysler Building in New York. Visitors can climb up stairs to the
first two levels or take a lift.
Seine River
The Seine River flows from Dijon in the Alps, through Paris, joining the
sea at Le Havre on the French coast. Paris lies 277 miles (445 km)
from the river mouth and the slow-moving river is navigable up to 348
miles (560 km) inland from Le Havre, to Paris and beyond. You can
cruise it on either tours boats or the hop on hop off boats, or walk along
either the left or right bank.
Notre Dame De Paris
Not the largest cathedral in the world, the Notre-Dame might be the
most famous of all cathedrals. The site of the Notre dame is the cradle
of Paris and has always been the religious centre of the city. Bishop
Maurice de Sully started the construction in 1163. The Cathedral was to
be built in the new Gothic style and had to reflect Paris's status as the
capital of the Kingdom France.
