And also the entrance to the Louvre through the glass Pyramid, or looking at the front of the Opera, and going to the next block to visit the incredible Galeries Lafayette. Also not to be missed is walking (shopping if one is rich) along the rue Faubourg St.Honore, where most of the designers are located. Then there is the beautiful Jardin de Luxembourg park, and the happenings and art at the Centre Pompidou, and the cafes of the Left Bank, and strolling along the Seine to see the Bouquinistes (book and print stalls), not to mention Notre Dame and the jewel Sainte Chapelle, or Monmartre. You'll also HAVE to see the Eiffel Tower from up close as photos don't do it credit. But there's more! Which you will discover on your own.
