Question

If you went to France for a week, 7 days, what wold you see?? Why?

Answer 1

Eiffel Tower, looks very romantic.

Answer 2

The Eiffel Tower and the Lourve (or however it's spelled I can't remember).  As far as everything else, just site seeing.  Why, because those are the only national landmarks of France I know of.

Answer 3

The Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, Notre Dam etc

Answer 4

Day one - Getting Oriented - The origins

Go to the Parc de Vert Galant on the westernmost tip of Ile de la Cite and take a boat ride up and down the Seine. The river, Notre Dame  and the Eiffel tower will be your points of reference in the next week. The river divides the city into Left(south) and Right (north) Banks. The Tower is in the west of the city and Notre Dame is in the center.

After your boat ride explore the Ile de la Cite. This little island in the river is where Paris began.

On it you will find Notre Dame and in front of the church the zero mile marker from which all distances in France are measured. The Conciergerie, a medieval castle was turned ito a prison during the revoultion and you can see where Marie Antoinette was held prisoner before her execution. Sainte Chapelle was built by King Louis IX in the 13th century to house the Crown of Thorns and other relics. The Pont Neuf (the "new" bridge) is actually the oldest bridge in Paris.

Day Two - The Latin Quarter. Wander thru the maze of little streets that were characteristic of the earliest days of Paris when this area got its name from the presence of so many students at the new University. Latin was language of the church and of scholars. See the Sorbonne, the Pantheon, the Cluny Museum, and the Luxembourg Gardens build for Marie de Medici.

Day Three - Paris Triumphant Start at the Arc de Triomphe built to celebrate the victories of the Emperor Napoleon I. Take the elevator to the top for the best view of the transformation of Paris done by Baron Hausman, city planner for Napoleon III. he created the Grand Boulevards, many of which radiate from this point. Walk to the Palais de Chaillot in the Trocadero across the river from the Eiffel Tower then cross, on foot to see it. Afterwards, walk to the Invalides, where Napoleon I and his son, the King of Rome are entombed.

Day Four The Louvre needs no explanation It is one of great museums of art. It deserves at least a day. If "great art" becomes a bit tiring, find your way to the Museum of Decorative Arts (in the same complex) and view the hisotry of fashion and its magnificent collect of designer originals.

Day Five Montmartre After seeing great art head to the north end of the city to see Sacre Coeur, the white confection of a cathedral built at the turn of the century. Wander thru the streets where Picasso used to hang out. In the Place de teatre you'll see his (considerably less talented) successors selling the worst art ever seen to gullible tourists. Wander down the hill to the Place Pigalle and to the Moulon Rouge, its the same place Toulouse Lautrec painted (but not the same quality of show that he saw..don't waste your money on the evening shows there).

Day Six head out of Paris to Versailles

Day Seven More great art. See the Musee D'Orsay in a converted train station and its fabulous collection of impressionaists. Head to the Right bank to see the Centre Pompidu whioch houses the museum of modern art.
