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 16th-century cathedral is a mixture of Renaissance, Baroque and Gothic architecture.
Eglise Saint-Etienne-du-Mont de Paris includes a variety of architectural styles, incorporated over its many years of construction. Beautiful artifacts throughout the church that make for a very interesting visit. A typical Paris church that gives one a sense of peace and tranquility. If you love churches, architecture, and history, a must visit.

Famous bookstore located across from Notre Dame features several floors of books and Paris literary history.
In 1951 a small Parisian bookshop opened it was called Shakespeare and Company a magical place where authors of the time could go and share their ideas with any restrictions. Still today in 2018 you can feel the friendly vibe of the place and spend hours inside just looking at all the books from Sylvia Beach’s collection while enjoying the lovely and vintage vibe of the very special place that is Shakespeare and Company.

We visited here a few times during our stay in paris, the first was for the chrissie markets which was bustling, after that, the gardens were a lovely place to have a picnic on a sunny day, just a stones throw from the Seine and the Latin Quarter. The Fontaine de Georges Jeanclos (see review) is the centre piece of the gardens.

Located in the latin quarter stands this very modern looking bronze with famous Romanian Poet, in a lyrical pose, looking to the skies, his cloths look ragged and his feet are bare, the long branches either side of him reflect his connection to nature, through his work. All in all a very eye catching sculpture.

Having read several different authors on the subject of the French Resistance during WWll, I am a huge admirer of Pierre Brossolette. As it happens, I walk past his portrait on the side of the yellow mailbox once per week. As street art, it is beautifully done. It is in front of the Mairie of the 5ème arrondissement, just opposite the Pantheon.
