Whether traditional or contemporary, pop or decorative – France loves art in all its forms, and it embraces music, theatre, dance, literature wherever it’s found. Visit one of the numerous museums, go to the opera or cinema and take in a festival. Admire stained glass art in Troyes and the incomprehensibly vast Bayeux Tapestry – and in Paris, get familiar with the Louvre, the d'Orsay and the Centre Pompidou to name but three.
