10 Things to do Good for Couples in Paris That You Shouldn't Miss

January 25, 2022 Mikaela Didonna

Lingering over pain au chocolat in a sidewalk café, relaxing after a day of strolling along the Seine and marveling at icons like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe… the perfect Paris experience combines leisure and liveliness with enough time to savor both an exquisite meal and exhibits at the Louvre. Awaken your spirit at Notre Dame, bargain hunt at the Marché aux Puces de Montreuil or for goodies at the Marché Biologique Raspail, then cap it all off with a risqué show at the Moulin Rouge.

A must visit landmark Cathedral in Paris, I turned up at 7:45 AM.. early and entered inide at 8 : 00 AM, the exterior architecture is amazing magnificent , the cathedral is stunning with ornate and intricate statues and two bell tower , he facade of the Cathedral is well designed in Gothic architectural style, the interiors of the cathedral is impressive with high column and glass works ,as i walked inside the cathedral i was just lost in the era of the Gothic Period. This is one of the best cathedral that i ve ever visited in my life. You can capture some of the stunning views of the cathedral . My suggestion to visit the cathedral is enter the cathedral in the morning early hours , when the crowd is less, the entry is free, but you have to stand in line to enter and security check is there. the touristic crowd and group tour pours in so visit at early is always the best to enjoy your visit to this marvelous masterpiece.. At evening hour the views of the cathedral is also stunning...there is a huge open space in front of the cathedral for capturing beautiful views.

My visit was exponentially valuable thanks to Rick Steves audio guide (download available free online, do a search), which was an hour guided walk describing the history and directing us to the best known graves, like Oscar Wilde, Gertrude Stein, Edith Piaf, Chopin, Colette and of course Jim Morrison; as well as memorials to deaths in war, Nazi victims and plane crashes. Definitely I recommend doing this guided walk!

This was a cool way to explore French history with Napoleon's tomb and the Army Museum, the top floor of which has weapons from all eras (my 10 year old nephew LOVED it!). It's a lot of walking so bring water but the grounds are lovely and you can take your time seeing everything. The cafe is a nice respite too and the food is good. All in all, a great way to spend an afternoon in Paris!
