Symbol of the French victory in the 1998 World Cup, this stadium has become as famous as the other great Parisian monuments. Any tourist will be stunned by the beauty of this 80,000-seat stadium, which is home not only to football matches but also to other sporting events and, thanks to its fantastic acoustics, many concerts. Traffic can be horrendous when an event is on; the RER is definitely a better choice. Guided tours can be arranged.
