Paris, TN is known for two things that outsiders want to some to visit and see. First, is the replica Eiffel Tower. Second, and has been around longer, is the sign welcoming visitors to town.
Located at the intersection of US79 and US641, all visitors from the south will pass by here. Paris claims to be home every year to the world's largest fish fry. This premier event started in 1953 and 12,500 pounds of catfish get eaten during the weeklong festivities.
