Paris

Sitting at the confluence of the Nith and Grand rivers in Ontario's Brant County, this pocket-sized Canadian town has a walkable central core with cafés, restaurants, and an unusual concentration of historic churches for its size. Established in 1850, Paris served as a separate incorporated municipality for nearly 150 years before amalgamating into Brant County in 1999, and remains the county's largest community.
