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.

This beautiful museum, once a railroad station, now houses a staggering collection of Impressionist art, as well as other items created between 1848 and 1914. In 2011, the museum is running a renovation of the top floor (impressionist gallery). Only ground and medium floor are accessible. The top floor will re-open on the 20th of October. Meanwhile, some impressionist masterpieces are not visible.
Excellent museum, incredible use of old train station space, loads and loads of lovely and important French art, easy to walk, large open spaces, good cafes, perfect light. We walked right in in June, no waiting, arrived at opening. Highly recommend.

Welcome Le Bon Marche Rive Gauche, the oldest department store and the only one of the Rive Gauche. A space for living and shopping, Le Bon Marche serves as a creative breeding ground designed along resolutely contemporary lines. Its spaces express the way it interprets trends and define a unique art de vivre.
Think top end department store then add a fantastic food store (with small eating “pop up” stalls for tapas / pintxo / jambon / seafood - couldn’t resist sitting down for a glass of wine and treats) next door amazing wine cave

Located close to Bon Marche supermarket which is the best landmark to give a taxi driver, the Chapel of the Miraculous Medal is a beautiful location which is very heavenly. Please check the opening hours to avoid the Church being closed or too busy. Mass times are particularly busy. The body of St Catherine is located at the top of the Church to the right of the main altar, to the right of St Catherine Laboure's tomb is the seat which is cornered off that Our Lady sat upon when St Catherine had her vision. The statue of Saint Vincent De Paul is behind the chair. (Please note the body of St Vincent de Paul is buried within walking distance from Rue de Bac). Mass is lovely but I also loved to sit in the Church and pray. There are some locals though who seems to sit in the Church all day. There is a gift shop on the way into the Church and this has lots of lovely souvenirs which you can purchase. Also to mention the body of St Louise de Marillac who is the co-founder of the Daughters of Charity is buried to the left of the Altar. I found this Church to be beautiful, heavenly and I will definitely return to see St Catherine Laboure. Please visit this beautiful location

The naive painters exhibition in the Maillol museum is a hidden gem. This relatively small museum is a very pleasant background for the collection of works that leave you smiling and happy to enjoy them.
