Question

I'm going to Paris this summer for the first time. What are the best places to visit while I'm there?

Answer 1

oh I am jealous...

Here's a list of must-sees.

1. La Tour Eiffel - of course. go in the daytime AND at night.

2. Quartier Latin (the Latin Quarter)- great for walking around and absorbing the culture and architecture. Buy a crepe on the street.

3. Place du Concorde, especially the fountain, La Fountaine des Fleuves...so beautiful. At night it is lighted.

4. The Louvre- plan a whole day here.

5. Musee d'Orangerie- where Monet's room sized waterlilies are shown

6. La Pont (bridge) Alexandre- one of the many bridges on the river, if you can take a bateaux (boat) cruise, all the better

7. Notre Dame Cathedral

8. L'arc du Triomphe at the end of the Champs Elysees. I laugh every time at the insane traffic circle that boggles your mind. walk, don't drive here.

9. La Cabaret Moulin Rouge- the windmill- yes, the movie is based on this place. Tres chic.

10. Galleries Lafayette- amazing shopping experience

11. Sacre Couer (Sacred Heart) basilica. Another gorgeous place.

12. A fabulous cafe and patisserie. Have a european coffee on the street and get a true french pastry. Enjoy, bon voyage!
