What to do and see in Palais-Royal, Ile-de-France: The Best Things to do
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.

UNIQUE EXPERIENCE Put on your gloves. The light fades. Music is growing, too. The voice of your coach sounds, you vibrate. You are not in any studio. You do more than just boxing. You are at Punch!

Once a royal palace now the amazing spot to enjoy some relaxing time, since it's much less crowded than places nearby.

The wonderful premises and its three theatres make the Comédie one of the workd’s icons as far as theatre is concernes. A great scenic art school, filled with great masters in the scene, this is an unmissable place. And if you can follow, do not miss one presentation. What a wonder of civilization!
7. Jardin du Palais Royal

A beautiful garden dating back to the French Revolution.
Reviewed By PernilleI - Copenhagen, Denmark
While the summer sees this little park bristling with people, outdoor seating and activity it is no less interesting to visit at colder times of the year. It is of course much more quiet - a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of the Rue de Rivoli and the next door Louvre museum. Accessing from the Rue de Rivoli, you first pass through the courtyard with the back and white columns in different heights installed by the artist Daniel Buren in the 1980's. They give a brilliant new perspective to the square and some excellent photo opportunities of course. Walking further into the real garden of what was the Cardinal Richelieus personal palace, there is a beautiful square garden with galleries on all sides where you can find interesting shops and cafés and restaurants. The garden has chairs available for a sit-down - and you must take some time to read the quotes sculpted through holes in the chairs. They are in French of course; but all very poetic and interesting. A rare oasis of peace in Paris!

Reviewed By JnVSydney - Greater Sydney, Australia
Located at one of the sided entrances (Rue de Rivoli) to the Gardens Tuileries, stands this very graphic, bronze of a Rhinoceros attacked by a Tiger, (created in 1882), the detail and emotions that have been captured by the sculptor (Auguste Nicolas Cain), is amazing. Definitely worth a look when visiting the gardens.
