“A walk about Paris will provide lessons in history, beauty, and in the point of life.”
Thomas Jefferson
So you’re ready to plan your next adventure. You think, “Mmmm, Paris? I don’t know if it’s right for me.” Well read (and look) on for some of the best reasons why Paris is a yes!
Eiffel Tower – Daytime
Big, beautiful, and hardly needs an introduction. Check it out during the day to see how the sun reflects off its iron body.
Eiffel Tower – Nighttime
Visit her at night and experience something totally different!
Panthéon, Paris
Inside this huge monument you will find decades of art, history, and science including their giant swinging pendulum!
Underneath the building you will find the crypts. Check them out to explore all of he brilliant minds that are buried beneath (like Voltaire!).
Arc de Triomphe
One of the most famous monuments in Paris!
Louvre Museum
Nothing truly compares to this massive collection of art and history.
We were not prepared or expecting just how beautiful the grounds of the Louvre were at sunset and even into the night!
Jardin du Palis Royal
To be honest we somewhat stumbled upon this beautiful garden. But don’t let that fool you! You might recognize this from a scene out of Mission: Impossible 2018!
Shakespeare and Company Café
Personal favorite of mine. Let me be entirely honest, I took one look at this and thought it was going to be nasty. DELICIOUS! Drinks too!
Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris
Although it underwent the tragic fire in 2019 (and as of since the cathedral is closed to the public), there is still something to be experienced even if only to take in this grand cathedral from the street view.
The French Cuisine!
Pasta, pesto, pastries, croissants, wines, MACARONS! OK, now I’m hungry.
I have always loved croissants but nothing compares to being at the Louvre and enjoying a French croissant.
OK now I’m off to Keikos to make some macarons (check ’em out! They’ve got crazy beautiful how-tos on all sorts of pastries)! If you haven’t already been to Paris, now is the time to start planning!
Happy Travels❤
