This cities beautiful architecture and cultured lifestyle is something not to be missed. With a few days you can visit its many popular attractions including the Eiffel Tower and Montmartre, all whilst having time to relax and soak up the refined atmosphere and even see the alternative side to Paris.

If shopping and fashion is your interest, there is no better place for window shopping than along the Avenue des Champs-Elysées, Avenue Montaigne or Faubourg Saint-Honoré. You can see how the other half live but maybe try not to look at the price tags! However, if you’re more enthused by architecture and history, exploring round the stunning Sainte-Chapelle and marvelling at the Avenue de l’Opéra may be more for you. With so much on offer you will struggle not to get swept away in this romantic city!
