The Best Tourist Destinations in Paris
Author: Guest AuthorWith so many things to do in the most romantic city in the world, how can you pick just one? Here’s a brief list of some of the sites in Paris that are definitely must-see attractions.
The first thing you should probably consider doing is seeing a day tour of the city, since this can give you some more ideas of what would attract you personally. This will also help you get a general idea of the city’s layout, so you won’t be completely lost once you’re out and about the city on your own. Try to select a hotel you can find, preferably one whose name you can say easily. With these things in mind, you should have a great time in Paris!
Of course, any tourist needs to visit the Eiffel Tower. Who wouldn’t love a view of the entire city of Paris?! Make sure you check the hours the tower is open for the season you’re visiting, as they do change slightly based on the season.
The Louvre is another obvious selection on any quick tour of Paris, especially for art lovers. Housing tens of thousands of artworks, the Louvre really does live up to it’s phenomenal reputation.
For those interested in History, the Notre Dame Cathedral is another must-see attraction. Unfortunately, there is limited mobility access in most places. Not only is Notre Dame a great tourist destination, it’s also free of charge.
Luxembourg Gardens is the largest public park in all of France. There are many statues, flowers, and fountains to catch the eye. Don’t worry about the kids, either, as the park also hosts a number of great attractions anyone can enjoy.
Located on the Seine River, Paris Plage is a great beach with many attractions. It is run by the city of Paris and each year new attractions are added. Though the beach itself is free of charge, the various attractions do have individual admission prices.
