by Maggie N. Leblanc 

France remains the world’s number one tourist destination and one of the wealthiest nations in Europe despite a global recession. It has been eminent in terms of influence in cultural, political, artistic and social movements for the past 400 years. With its diversity of regional cultures, climates and cultural attractions beyond Paris, it has something to offer to everyone who visits there.
Gastronomic and wine making traditions have been rooted in France’s distant history going back to pre-Roman times. The art of wine making with its versatile grape varietals has had an immeasurable influence on wine making around the globe. The wine industries in California, Australia, South America and South Africa have benefited from the infusion of French grapes varietals such as Chardonnay, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc. French winemakers have developed their expertise of growing grapes in northern regions by taking advantage of microclimates along riverbanks and the positioning of vineyards to maximize sun exposure.
Local and national governments play a significant part in regulating important tourism sectors such as the hotel industry, the restaurant industry and the wine making industry by controlling what is considered a quality product. Various rating and ranking systems help the consumer chose the finest in terms of wine, food and even hotels. For tourists who are interested in athletic or creative pursuits such as golf or painting, France is never a boring experience, offering a wide range of quality activities and sights to see or to paint.
