In France there is a high speed train called train a grande viteese or in short TGV that runs on five major tracks.

The TVG south east line connects Paris with the south east of France including the main regional cities of Lyon, Dijon, Avignon, Marseille, Nice and Perpignon. This TGV train service also passes through the French Alps and stops at Geneva in Switzerland.

Paris and the west coast are linked by the TGV Atlantic line. Nantes, La Rochelle, Toulouse the Loire Valley, Bordeaux and the French Basque are the stops allotted for this TGV train line.

The high speed TGV northern train line links Paris to Lille and Calais, two of the principal cities in the north of France.

The most famous railway line in France called the Eurostar links Paris and London and it passes through the Channel Tunnel with stops at Lille, Calais and Ashford in Kent.

TGV Thalys is the high speed line which makes it easy for the travellers to move between some principal cities of Europe such as Brussels, Cologne and Amsterdam and France.

Often referred to or known as the Auroras, the Northern Lights present a magnificent display of natural light in the night sky. Because these displays occur predominantly in the Polar Regions, they are even sometimes referred to as Aurora Borealis. The closer you get to the North Pole, the more intense and vivid these wonderful Northern Lights become.

While the northern lights usually appear high overhead when viewed from a location close to the magnetic north pole, as one moves further away from the north pole, this magnificent display of natural light tends to illuminate the horizon from one end to the other in a marvellous greenish glow. Having said that, there are times when the northern lights appear to be more of a red colour rather than green. When one considers the way in which these lights can appear to dance in the night sky is hardly surprising that some people view them as being almost eerie in a way, and this is perhaps why they have been referred to as a “dance of the spirits”.
