From iconic landmarks to charming cobblestone streets, there’s a reason the city of light is considered one of the most romantic cities in the world. In a city with so much to do, it isn’t always easy to decide which sites and attractions are worth seeing and which can be skipped. There are a few essentials, including exploring Paris at night to see the Eiffel Tower light up and seeing the Mona Lisa at the Louv Museum, but it’s equally worth it to venture out to other Irans to experience the full breadth of Parisian culture. Here are the top things to do in Paris when traveling to this enchanting city for the first time. One, visit the Eiffel Tower. The Eiffel Tower is a quintessential stop in Paris, a globally recognized symbol of France. It is one of the most visited paid attractions in Europe. Though the tower can be spotted from around the city, nothing compares to seeing it up close. Each night at dusk, it sparkles for 5 minutes on the hour until 1:00 a.m. Insiders tip. Skip the long lines by purchasing a ticket to climb to the second floor or the summit in advance, or opt for a guided tour. Two, explore the famous Louv. As one of the best museums in Paris, let alone the largest and most visited art museum in the world, the Lou has over 300,000 objects on display, including the famed Mona Lisa. It’s impossible to see everything in one visit, but first time visitors should look out for Liberty Leading the People, Venus de Milo, and the raft of Medusa. Insiders tip. Make the most of your visit with a guided tour. Your guide will help you navigate the vast museum, showing you the major highlights in a few hours. Three. Climb the Arctic to triumph. Commission to honor those who fought for France in the Napoleonic Wars and the French Revolution. The Arct Triumph is a commemorative monument every first time visitor should see. The arch is home to the tomb of the unknown soldier with an eternal flame honoring the fallen soldiers who couldn’t be recognized. Insidider tip: Visiting the arch is free, but you’ll need to buy a ticket to access its rooftop observation deck, which offers one of the best views of Paris. Four, check out the Muse Dorsce. First timers in Paris often wonder whether to visit the Louv or Muse Dorsce. Housed in a former train station, Muse Dorsce boasts the largest collection of impressionist and postimpressionist paintings in Europe. Art lovers can admire works by some of history’s most famous painters, including Claude Monaet, Pierro Gust Renoir, and Vincent Van Gogh. Insiders tip: For a unique photo opportunity, catch the view of Paris through the large glass clock face on the museum’s fifth floor. Five. Stroll around Monm Matra. Located on a hill in the 18th Arandism, Monmatra is one of the most scenic neighborhoods in Paris. Known for artists like Pablo Picasso and Dalida Deas who once called it home, Monmatra retains an artistic bohemian vibe even today. Spend the day exploring quaint streets, famous cafes, and the wall of love, a fresco featuring lava tiles that say I love you in 311 languages. Six. Admire the Sacre Kurr. While in Mon Matra, make a stop at Sacre Kur Basilica, a massive Parisian church and architectural marvel. Admire soaring domes and statues on the outside of the basilica. Inside, witness the largest mosaic in the world, Christ and Majesty, along with orange chapels and grand organs. Insiders tip. Visiting the Basilica is a free activity in Paris, but for a few euros, you can climb to the dome and take in panoramic views of the city. Seven. Day trip to the Palace of Versailles. Take a day trip from Paris to Versailles. The 90-minute train ride is worth it. The Palace of Versailles was the official residence of the French monarch from 1682 to 1789, and visitors can explore the ornate halls, apartments, and gardens.
