In March I left rainy Germany to go to Paris, France, for a couple of days. After a few hours drive form Germany: Bon soir, Paris!! During my stay I climbed up the Eiffel Tower, went shopping on the Champs-Elysses, saw the Mona Lisa picture at the Louvre museum and lot´s more!

| Other recommendations: |
not far away from the sorbonne university in the middle of paris, there´s a beautiful park where little kids had small boats to float on the water and people just came to relax... awesome atmosphere. i think it was not far away from the senate´s building.
thanks to marianne: it was the jardin du luxembourg! it´s so pretty! definetely a nice little place you should see!

Hi jen,
You had some lovely days. Was this your first visit to Paris? You definitely saw all the first class tourist sights. Very brave to walk up the Eiffel Tower. The garden with all the kids and their small boats is jardin du Luxembourg. |
