- Summary:
- Description:France prepares for significant step towards easing coronavirus restrictions after Pentecost weekend As of Tuesday, the French regain their freedom of travel, many sights and museums are allowed to open again, and above all the gastronomy industry will be able to restart after more than 11 weeks of lockdown. In Paris, restaurants and bistros are only allowed to open their terraces to guests, because the coronavirus threat still exists. For two and a half months, the parks and green spaces were restricted areas. The rush is correspondingly large now. It's a slow, cautious return to normal, after all, France was particularly hard hit by the coronavirus.
