Capital of France — not just a place of entertainment (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

funfair

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'entertainment' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'capital of france not just' is the wordplay.
'capital of' indicates taking the first letters.
'not just' becomes 'unfair' ('unfair' is the opposite to 'just').
The initial letter of 'france' is 'f'.
'f'+'unfair'='FUNFAIR'

'a place of' acts as a link.
This may not be right. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for funfair that I've seen before include "entertainment for the family?" , "Swings and roundabouts" , "place of amusement" , "Amusement park" , "Amusements here" .)
