Main Attractions in Paris
The Greater Paris area is full of attractions for all ages. Classic “musts” include the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and the Arc de Triomphe, yet those delights are only a start for exploring the City of Light. Adding to the luster are vibrant street scenes with ample shopping and people-watching, especially from the vantage point of sidewalk cafes. Public transportation, especially the underground Paris Metro, makes it easy to get around to many attractions and neighborhoods. Another 'must' is Musee du Louvre, where the world's most famous works of art live, including the Mona Lisa, the statute of Venus de Milo, the ancient Winged Victory, and thousands of other priceless works many of which originally were collected privately by French royalty throughout history and donated to the museum.
