At least thousands of tourists who come here every year think so and for good reason. Cozy cobbled streets along the Seine, cafes filled with aromas of crispy bread and buns and of course the famous Louvre and the Eiffel Tower. Going to France, leave the stereotyped tourist routes, and then this city will really become the most romantic, understandable and cozy for you. In the meantime, I suggest you read some interesting facts about France!
In this article, you will learn about the interesting unknown facts about the France. It’s been six months since I visited France, and I haven’t written about it until now. Let me fix it. Following are the 7 interesting facts I would like to share with you:
Shortly before the liberation of Paris in August 1944, Hitler gave the order to blow up all the major infrastructure of the city and attractions, including the Eiffel Tower. General Dietrich von Choltitz, appointed shortly before the military governor of Paris, refused to carry out the order and surrendered to the French Liberation Army.
The French people call cotton candy "daddy's beard." In Greece, the name is "grandmother's hair". In Africa, this sweetness is called "Ghost Breath."
The Mississippi company, which was engaged in the development of the territories of modern Louisiana, took the extravagant step of inviting prison inmates to go to America and become free, but on the condition that they marry prostitutes. In total, three ships of such newlyweds were sent.
The British and French have long had a rule that oysters are suitable for consumption only in those months in the name of which there is the letter "r". Exceptions in both languages are the same hot months - May, June, July and August - in which shellfish are more likely to be infected with pathogenic bacteria.
In combat aviation, not only bombs and missiles were used against ground targets. During the First World War, metal darts, were widely used. Sharpened arrows the size of a pencil, being thrown out of special cassettes, when approaching the ground, developed destructive speed and strength and effectively hit clusters of infantry or cavalry, and the whistle accompanying them was a kind of psychic attack on people and horses. Flashhets were invented by the French and were also adopted by the German and Russian armies.
ASince 2012, around 100 French train stations have been equipped with pianos that anyone can play. During this time, according to the service company, not a single tool was damaged by vandals.
The Statue of Liberty was conceived as a gift to France for the centenary of the US Declaration of Independence, with the French pledging to build and erect the statue, and the Americans - the pedestal. By 1876, neither one nor the other had time to do, and fundraising, especially in the United States, progressed slowly. However, in France, a hand with a torch was already ready, and it was brought to the World's Fair in Philadelphia to advertise the project, and after the exhibition it was transported to New York. Visitors for a fee could climb the torch balcony. Only ten years later, the pedestal was built, and the Statue of Liberty took its current place.
