Is the Hunchback of Notre-Dame a good book?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I suppose that there could be an Irish student suffering from kyphosis, but if you mean was Quasimodo a real person, no, he was a character in a novel. The "Notre Dame" of his story is a real cathedral in Paris, not a university in Indiana.

How do you define Prix fixe menu?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Un menu à prix fixe is the set meal provided by a restaurant, as opposed to the menu à la carte. With the former, a limited choice of 2 or 3 courses is offered at a set price, in the latter each dish on a much longer list has its own price, and you compose your own meal. This is invariably more expensive.

How much does bread cost in Paris France?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Think carefully about that question. How much does food cost where you live? Can't answer it, can you?

Restaurant meals in Paris tend to be more expensive than in provincial France, but with care you can still dine cheaply there. Supermarket food has a pretty standard price across the country, but in central Paris you won't find large supermarkets and small shops are, as everywhere, dearer.

What lands were traveled in Gulliver's Travels?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In Gulliver's Travels, the main character, Lemuel Gulliver is initially sailing to the South Seas. However, a storm blows him off course and he lands on the island of Lilliput, a land inhabited by people 6 inches tall. He briefly returns home to England, then heads out on another journey and is blown off course again. This time he lands in Brobdingnag, where people are all 60 feet tall. After another pit stop in England, Gulliver ends up marooned on an island near Vietnam, then gets picked up by the floating island of Laputa. People on Laputa are normal sized but entirely impractical. Then Gulliver travels to Glubbdubdrib, an island where he meets ghosts, and Luggnagg, the home of immortals. Gulliver ends up in Japan, sails home to England, then leaves again, this time as the captain of a ship. However, he doesn't prove popular as a captain and his crew maroons him on an island inhabited by intelligent, noble horses called Houyhnhnms. Finally, he returns home to England and his family, much changed by all his travels.

So in brief he travels to:

England

Lilliput

Brobdingnag

small island near Vietnam

Laputa

Glubbdubdrib

Luggnagg

Japan

Houyhnhnm Land

Why is it so cold in Paris?

Asked by Wiki User

It can get cold there. Due to the Gulf Stream, much of the west of Europe has milder winter weather than other parts of the world on the same latitude. So Paris would be milder than other parts of the world, but it still can be cold there.

How long before departure should you be at the train station?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Times vary from airport to airport, from air carrier to air carrier and even from day to day. A general guideline is 1 1/2 hours before departure for US domestic travel when checking bags. 2 hours before departure for International departures. For major holiday travel, add another 30 minutes, just to be sure. If you have no bags to check-in, most carriers now have some form of online check-in or airport based kiosk (self service) check-in that might allow you shave some time off your check-in.

How is the Eiffel Tower maintained?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

SETE - Société d'Exploitation de la Tour Eiffel. This is a limited public-private company which holds the franchise until 2015. The City of Paris owns 59.9 percent, and various finance houses the rest (except for 0.01 percent belonging to the Paris Tourism and Congress Office). Separate companies run the souvenir stalls, the restaurants and biffets, the telescopes, the ATMs and the guided tours. Profits are about 4 million euros a year (less tax), resulting from a revenue of 66 million, of which 24 go to personnel, 9 to the City of Paris in royalties, 14 to paying of debts. These are th#e figures I can find; the rest, presumably, goes on maintenance and refitting, of which there is a lot.
