If
you are planning a trip to Paris let me tell you, you have chosen one
of the most endearing cities of the world, with which you would
instantly fall in love with. This city cannot be completely explored
in a single trip; rather you might need to extend your trip to
apprehend the Parisian streets and its entourage. This is one of the
most developed cosmopolitans in the world; hence it’s quite obvious
to see excellent transport system. But I would suggest you to go for
a car rental to brace yourself in this French city.
My
suggestion is to visit the main tourist office located near the
Champs-Élysées. As from here, you can obtain route maps, relevant
information on tours, leaflets for events etc. You can also go for a
Carte-Musée-Monument Pass, which is valid from 1-5 days and gives
you unlimited access to over 70 museums and landmarks including
Eiffel Tower, Palais Royal, Louvre, Musée d'Orsay etc. You should go
for a guided city tour, which can be a convenient way to fetch your
bearings. Your visit to Paris would be indeed incomplete without
visiting the world famous Eiffel Tower. This superb piece of
architecture was built by Gustave Eiffel in 1889. It became a huge
success soon after its completion and today it has become the
embodiment of this city. The Champs-Elysees is another prominent
sight-seeing spot of the city. This splendid monument is also known
as the ‘Heavenly Fields’ and it stretches from the de la Concorde
to the Arc de Triomphe, the Rond-Point being the halfway mark. One
half of its boulevard is adorned by chestnut trees, thereby rendering
you a delightful evening walk experience. The major highlights of
this landmark include the Grand and Petit Palais, which are strictly
devoted towards the Parisian arts.
You
can also drive in your car hire to the Louvre, which is considered
among the world's grandest art museums. It exhibits the world's most
famous painting Leonardo's 'Mona Lisa.' This world-famous gallery is
comprised of 7 different zones, featuring the Greek and Roman art
pieces, the Egyptian Antiques, Oriental and Islamic Antiquities etc.
