What to do in Paris

At times, everywhere a vacationer looks in Paris seems like a cliché: baguette bearers emerging from boulangeries , literary wannabes scribbling in terrace cafés, the Eiffel Tower glowing at night. For centuries, the City of Light (or is it the City of Love? Or both?) has set the standard in culture, couture, and cuisine, evident in its age-old institutions in existence today. The Louvre art museum is still one of the greatest in the world. The famed La Tour d’Argent restaurant still gets top rankings nearly 150 years after opening. And the Bon Marché department store still houses magazine-worthy displays of the latest labels. But tourists will also find electric trams, bike- and car-sharing programs, and new architecture (such as the controversial Cité de la Mode) to challenge those old clichés.

Megan rates Paris
Paris is my personal favorite city. It truely is a romatic city with the lights and river at night. There is so much to do and see here. When you are visiting Paris you must go to a bistro and enjoy a nice long lunch or cafe au lait. The people can be a little unfriendly if you don't approach them with French or at least an attempt at French. Use a trip here as an excuse to learn some basic French.
