What to see in Paris

[wendyp]

I'm so excited to be going to Paris with Easter weekend. Just hubby and me and it will be our first time there. We have made a little list of what we want to see in Paris, but was also wondering what you would suggest to visit. We are only staying in the city for 2,5 / 3 days.

Any suggestions?

I am pretty sure that Eiffel Tower is already on your list, but be prepared to queue plenty. Still, the view of the city from the top is quite worth it!

We loved walking around the arrondisement nearby the Eiffel Tower and randomly choose a place to eat. We got lucky at the time and got into a good little restaurant that we ended up loving

I already made you a few suggestions, but I have some more:
- Cimetière du Père-Lachaise. It's a cemetary where a lot of famous people are burried.
- Centre Pompidou is all about modern art
- Sacre Coeur and montmartre with the artists.
- Tour montparnasse (the elevator I told you about)
- La Géode and Parc de la Vilette
- Arc De Triomphe, Grand Arch de la Défense and Arc De La Carrousel (the smallest of the 3 arches)

I'll try to think of more.

Oh and I'm a huuuuge fan of Les Misérables so we visited the house of Victor Hugo. (Also known for The Hunchback of Notre Dame).

le Sacré Coeur is my favorite area.

You have a great vieuw over paris from sacre coeur.
The things that sarah said are must do's.
Off course see the piramide in front of the louvre of if you time visit the louvre.
Walk around the champs elyse

notre dame and louvre are my favorites in paris, in addition to eiffel tower... versailles is also nice, but you need to allocate most of a day. if you are a doctor who fan, orsay museum is a must-visit.
