Local travel in Paris: Paris, France has always been famous for its romance. It is also a city of love. It has a long and elegant history and can be called a gourmet paradise. From strolling the Champs Elysées, climbing the Eiffel Tower, exploring the catacombs, and indulging in all the delicious cheeses and wines. Here are 10 things that tourists must not miss when coming to Paris: 1 Picnic at the Eiffel Tower The Eiffel Tower is the most iconic landmark in the city of Paris. If you come to Paris without going to the Eiffel Tower, it will definitely be a regret. If you don’t want to pay the euros to climb the tower, you can buy your own delicious cheese, or bring some wine and have a picnic in the park surrounding the tower. 2 Walking Tours in the City The best way to experience Paris is on foot. A walking tour allows you to see a variety of Paris attractions. You can choose a general tour route and see iconic buildings along the way, including the Louvre, Notre Dame, the Arc de Triomphe, the Latin Quarter, the Champs Elysées, and other historical landmarks. If you have interests in a certain field, you can choose a place with concentrated tourism to visit. For example, for graffiti, you can go to Versailles or the Latin Quarter. 3 Visit a Museum All artists love the city of Paris, and there are some amazing museums in Paris. The most famous Louvre Museum is located in this city. You might as well spend a day visiting it here. 4 Catacombs Tour The underground urns of the Paris Catacombs hold the remains of more than six million people. If you are interested in the history and mystery of the Catacombs, you can plan a Catacombs Tour. You can explore underground passages lined with thousands of bones of former Parisians and learn about the history of hypnosis and listening to the maze of horrors. 5 Moulin Rouge Another famous Paris landmark, home of the Moulin Rouge Hotel. Although it is now mostly a tourist attraction, there are still exhibitions and tours, and the original buildings are still preserved inside. Even if you can't make it to the show, it's worth checking out the iconic windmill outside the building. 6 Luxembourg Garden Bordering the Saint-Germain-des-Prés and Latin Quarters, the Luxembourg Garden is loved by all. Lovely gardens, perfect for an impromptu picnic, or just visit the orchard and old apiary, where they teach beekeeping and sell honey. 7 Visit discount stores Paris is a shopping paradise, from high-end fashion stores to classic antique stores. You can see designer shopping in the Louvre and Tuileries districts and on Avenue Montaigne and the Champs Elysées. If you want to shop in department stores, head to Boulevard Haussmann and the Boulevards. If you have limited shopping expenses, you can go to Rivoli Street in Les Halles, where there are large chain stores and fashion boutiques. 8. Enjoy a meal at a sidewalk cafe When walking in Paris, you will notice that there are many cafes on the sidewalks. Or there are delicious bakeries, desserts, cafes, delicatessens, and street snacks. If the weather is nice, there’s nothing like pulling up a chair, drinking a cup of coffee at a sidewalk cafe, ordering your favorite dessert, and enjoying the food while observing the daily life of Parisians.
