Things to do in Paris, Ile-de-France: The Best Points of Interest & Landmarks

January 23, 2022 Sheron Bogner

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.

Luxembourg Palace

This beautiful neo-classical building serves as a meeting place for the country's politicians, while its beautiful gardens are enjoyed by all.

Luxembourg Palace was built in the first half of the 17th century as a royal residence. It has had some really interesting and intriguing history. Today it is the place where the Senate, part of the French Parliament meets. It is quite a luxurious building, and you would expect nothing less!

Maison d'Auguste Comte

The Maison d’Auguste Comte is the appartment where the French philosopher Auguste Comte (1798-1857) lived. Located in the Rue Monsieur-le-Prince, 10, it’s the last place he occupied, from 1841 to 1857, the last 16 years of his life. Afterwards his disciples took care of the apartment where his philosophy was born, observing the last will of their master. The apartment has become a museum open to visitors and is now the property of an international Association dedicated to Auguste Comte. After crossing the doorstep, the visitor can see the Comtes home as he knew it, with the original furnitures and his own personal objects. The thematic tour recently established gives the visitor informations about Comte’s philosophy while preserving the appartments authenticity.
