Foire du Trone
Paris's massive Foire du Trône at the Pelouse de Reuilly has roots stretching back to the 12th century. Since the 1950s, the event has grown to become Europe's largest temporary fun fair, that attracts around five million visitors every year.
With its flashing lights, rides, live entertainment, freak shows and circus performers, the Foire du Thrône is a world away from the cultural clichés of the French capital, and that is the best thing about it.
