French coffee culture

The French do not seem to pay attention to the taste, but the environment and atmosphere. Most of them do not want to drink alone behind closed doors, but join in the fun outside, even if the price of a small cup is enough to make a pot at home.

French people drink coffee slowly, taste it carefully, read books and newspapers, talk about it, and "soak" for most of the day. Because of this traditional and unique coffee culture, French coffee resting places can be found all over the streets, under the shade of trees, by the side of the road, by the square, on the riverbank, on cruise ships, on street balconies, and even on the Eiffel Tower. And the form, style, size are not limited to one style, there are coffee shops, restaurants, halls, rooms.

The most popular and romantic ones are those open-air cafes, which are almost a portrayal of French life. Many open-air cafes occupy many public places, such as a corner of the square and sidewalks on the streets, even on the bustling Champs-Elysees, where colorful umbrellas have become a unique street view of Paris. The chairs of the cafe are almost all facing the road, sitting in this intentionally set auditorium, the road in front of which is the big stage where the script will never be repeated.

In addition to those open-air cafes that look up to the sky, there is no shortage of magnificent or simple and elegant cafes in about 170000 cafes in France. Especially in Paris, some cafes are themselves legendary places of interest. In the old dynasty of the Middle Ages, the focus of French cultural life was on the court. In the age of enlightenment in the 18th century, the focus of culture began to shift to various salons, clubs and cafes. The LeProcoPe Cafe in Latin, for example, is associated with the French Revolution that influenced the world more than 200 years ago. Voltaire, Rousseau and Diderot, the thinkers of the 18th century European Enlightenment, as well as Robespierre, Danton and Mara, the three heroes of the Great Revolution, were all regulars here. Several works by Voltaire and Diderot's world's first encyclopedia were written here, as well as the red, white and blue tricolor hats that symbolized the Revolution for the first time.
