Toulouse

Toulouse (; locally: ; (オック語:Tolosa) (:tuˈluzɔ), (ラテン語:Tolosa)) is the capital city of the southwestern French department of Haute-Garonne, as well as of the Midi-Pyrénées region. It lies on the banks of the River Garonne, from the Mediterranean Sea, from the Atlantic Ocean, and from Paris. With 1,250,251 inhabitants at the January 2011 census,〔 the Toulouse metropolitan area is the fourth-largest in France, after Paris (12.3 million), Lyon (2.2 million), and Marseille (1.7 million).
Toulouse is the centre of the European aerospace industry, with the headquarters of Airbus, the Galileo positioning system, the SPOT satellite system, the Airbus Group (former EADS), ATR and the Aerospace Valley.
The city also hosts the European headquarters of Intel and CNES's Toulouse Space Centre (CST), the largest space centre in Europe. Thales Alenia Space, and Astrium Satellites, Airbus Group's satellite system subsidiary, also have a significant presence in Toulouse. Its world-renowned university is one of the oldest in Europe (founded in 1229) and, with more than 103,000 students, is the fourth-largest university campus of France after Paris, Lyon and Lille.〔http://cache.media.enseignementsup-recherche.gouv.fr/file/Atlas_2012-2013/24/0/Midi-Pyrenees_316240.pdf〕
The air route between Toulouse Blagnac and Paris Orly is the busiest in Europe, transporting 2.4 million passengers in 2014.〔(Infographic / Air transport in Europe ) ''Aertec'', ''Eurostat''〕 According to the rankings of ''L'Express'' and ''Challenges'', Toulouse is the most dynamic French city.〔(Palmarès des villes les plus dynamiques : la revanche de la province ) ''L'Express''〕〔(Les villes les plus dynamiques de France ) ''Challenges''〕〔(Toulouse, métropole la plus dynamique ) ''La Dépêche du Midi''〕
The city was the capital of the Visigothic Kingdom in the 5th century and the capital of the province of Languedoc in the late Middle Ages and early modern period (provinces were abolished during the French Revolution), making it the unofficial capital of the cultural region of Occitania (Southern France). It is now the capital of the Midi-Pyrénées region, the largest region in metropolitan France.
A city with unique architecture made of pinkish terracotta bricks, which earned it the nickname ''la Ville Rose'' ("the Pink City"), Toulouse counts two UNESCO World Heritage sites, the Canal du Midi (designated in 1996 and shared with other cities), and the Basilica of St. Sernin, the largest remaining Romanesque building in Europe,〔(Toulouse’s Saint Sernin, Largest Romanesque Church in Europe ) ''Europe Close''〕 designated in 1998 because of its significance to the Santiago de Compostela pilgrimage route.
