| The forks
of the Nith and Grand River meet in pretty Paris town where the "fad" architecture
of cobblestone buildings was prominent in the mid 1800's. Just six minutes
northwest of Brantford, Paris offers a picturesque and tranquil valley
setting to enjoy the Springtime in Paris festival or the Paris Fall Fair. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Much of the
town is built on rolling hills and treed slopes, providing perfect settings
for the notable heritage homes that feature cobblestone craftmanship and
Greek Revival architecture. |

|
| Incorporated
in 1850, Paris is now known as "the Prettiest Town in Ontario". A stop
at the scenic lookout on Hwy.2 overlooking the entire town centre with
two rivers flowing by, will show you why. |

| History, heritage
architecture and picturesque views are only part of a visit to Paris. Competitive
shopping can be found along the main street, Grand River St. N. There are
also factory outlets selling a variety of goods. Mid-sized industry, in
a modern park, sets the tone of Paris' development and growth. |
