Paris 2021

Paris

Paris ‘the city of love’ a mesmerizing city you’ll definitely fall in love with. Whitestone townhouses ooze luxury, the smell of freshly baked croissants drifts through the air, and flowers hang at the sides of cobbled streets.

The Eiffel Tower is one of the most iconic monuments globally, up there with the likes of the Statue of Liberty, the Taj Mahal, or the Leaning Tower of Pisa. It is an icon of Paris, towering above the city by day and lighting it up at night. If you want to enjoy the view over the iconic skyline of Paris you’d have to visit Montmarte.

Montmarte is the prettiest area in all of Paris. What was once a tiny village on the hill, separated from the city, now forms the 18th district of Paris. You will find there a lot of phenomenal bars and restaurants. The Basilica Sacre-Coeur is the icon of Montmartre, a stunning white church that sits on the very top of the hill looking over Paris. You can access the central dome by climbing 300 steps to the top, where you’ll find even greater panoramic views of Paris.

Spend the rest of your day in the trendy neighborhood of Le Marais. You can find everything you could possibly need in this beautiful little medieval neighborhood, whether it’s trendy vintage shops and restaurants, luxurious squares, or ancient, narrow medieval streets that could be straight from a novel. Enjoy a walk around the Marché des Enfants Rouges and stay at one of the restaurants for a small meal.

If you walk along the Seine there’s a lot of vendors besides the street like on the picture below on the Quai Saint-Michel. Visiting the Pont Neuf, the Notre Dame cathedral and the various parisien parks and gardens just brightens your day. It’s the french lifestyle that makes you feel happy.

Surrounded by nice people, good food and wine you will have a perfect time. I’ve been visiting Paris in the autumn and it’s a perfect time. During these months, enjoy mild weather, days of sunshine, and slightly quieter streets. And there’s still a lot more to see – to much for just a few days of travel.

The Louvre Museum is one of the most famous in the entire world. It’s known for housing the Mona Lisa and its unique triangular shape. Featuring the French monarch’s art collection and the result of the pillaging which was carried out during Napoleon’s Empire, the Louvre Museum opened in 1793.

The Sorbonne University and cafés popular with students are located in the picturesque Latin Quarter, the 5th arrondissement of Paris. The district is also known for its bookshops whose are also worth a visit.

Enjoy the french way of life whilst you’re travelling to Paris. I can highly recommend a short trip to this marvellous city in the heart of Europe.
