What places are worth going to see in Paris?

Postby Tarostar » 29 January 2011


I'm going on holiday to Paris for a week later this year and would love to see the sights, but cant think of many places to go! So far I've thought of:
Eiffel Tower
St. Sulpice Church
Arc de Triomphe
Sacré Coeur
An Opera house
The Louvre
Notre Dame

I'd like to go to any of the locations of the Da Vinci Code book, but I cant really remember any of the places other than St. Sulpice.

Hello Friends...

Paris is a wonderful city to have a holiday trip....Especially the destination named as Eiffel Tower,Tomb of Napoleon,St. Sulpice Church,Sewers of Paris etc...These destinations allows you to learn many new things...I will also suggest others to visit these Paris attractions too.. Like by the end of the trip you come to know that the guys here are very fond of sports as well as of nightlife......

Hello! I see that Notre Dame is on many people's lists, but I highly recommend that if you're going to do Notre Dame, you do it at night! The last time I was in Paris I was staying close to the Ile St-Louis and my mother and I were wandering around our first evening and decided to see if it was open--when we got there, they were actually holding mass. I'm not a very religious person, but it was one of the most magical experiences of my life! The whole interior was lit solely by candles and it gave a completely different look than when we went back at a later time, during the day.
