Strolling by Paris

Paris is the more visited city of the world, with certainty this occurs because his monuments are the that more charm the tourists around the globe. In Paris the hours pass very fast and in three or four days is not going to be visited neither half of the immense quantity of appeals offered by the Light City.

If someone dedicated a morning or an afternoon for visit the Louvre Museum, this person did not visit more than 60% of the collection of the most famous museum of the world. I passed an entire day in there, until having lunch in its dependences, and I left with the sensation of not have seen everything, of have forgetful some important work.

Because of this dedicate at least a week for stroll with calms by the most charming streets of the planet, not itself satisfied in barely pass for the Arch of the Triumph or in stroll for its base. A watchtower concealed exists where can be purchase an ingression for visit the terrace in the top of the monument, of where the seen is simply marvelous. But if you have physical limitations or suffers from claustrophobia is better to give up, the spiral staircase is tight and tiring.

Main appeal of the city and his bigger symbol, the Eiffel Tower deserves a delayed visit, that begin in the Palais of Chaillot, equal by the gardens of the Field of Mars, by the marvelous base of the tower and finishes in its observatory, of where has the more stunning seen of the French capital. Do the visit in the afternoon and expect fall the night for see Paris by day, to the sunset with right to see the city with the light of the sun and in the night.

The Palace of Versalhes, located in the parisian suburb of same name, is one of the rich, pretiest and imitated constructions of the world, his visit requer an entire day for that you can know his marvelous interior and his famous parks and gardens. A penalty that his parlors be always filled of tourists, requiring a good dose of patience of the visitors, that are going to face long rows for visit the interior of the palace, but is a walk really unforgettable.

Another unmissable walk is the Hôtel Carnavalet, a palace near to the Plaza of the Bastille where is found installed the Historical Museum of Paris, in less of two hours we do a journey in the time that is initiated in the foundation of the city and passes for all of the important events of its history, as the French revolution. Between the works presented finds-itself one of the stones that were part of the Bastille, fort that was destroyed in the day in that the people destituted the French monarchy.

Many persons go to Paris and do not visit the church of Sacré Coeur in Montmartre that, beyond of be one of the most beautiful cathedrals of the world, still offers a pretty sight of the city and is installed in an of his bucolic and prettier neighborhoods. Montmartre is the neighborhood where does more feel strong the parisian atmosphere, narrow but very charming streets, floods of coffees and restaurants and plazas where painters do portraits of tourists to not always modest prices.

Finally it be not forgot of do at least a walk in one of the bateaux mouches, is incredible as Paris stayed different when sight from the perspective of the Seine River. You can do the walk in the end of the afternoon, like this will be able to see the city during the day in the gone and during the night in the return. But if you likes to take photographs go in the morning, is very difficult to take photographs during the night with the swing of the boat.
