Attractions in Paris:

Eiffel Tower
The top floor of the Eiffel Tower has a sweeping panorama of the city. If you look directly down from the top you can see the intricate ironwork of Gustave Eiffel, who was commissioned to build the tower in 1889, which was the centenary of the French Revolution. The Eiffel Tower has a several restuaruants so you can dine from the skies.

Notre-Dame Cathedral
The Notre-Dame Cathedral is located on the Ile-de-la-Cité. Bishop Maurice de Sully began the construction of the cathedral in 1163, to outshine the new abbey situated at St-Denis and work was completed in 1345. The cathedral is a Gothic masterpiece, with three stunning rose windows. Be prepared for some exercise as you will need to climb 387 spiral steps to reach the top of the 75m north tower, however the views over the River Seine and the city centre are well worth it.

Louvre National Museum
The Louvre first opened to the public during 1793, following the Revolution, as a showcase for the art treasures of the kings of France. The museum is organised into 3 wings on 4 floors.

The huge permanent collection of artwork includes Greek, Etruscan, Roman, Egyptian and East Asian antiquities, French, Spanish, Italian and northern European sculpture. The painting collection is the strongest, with French, Italian, Dutch, German, Flemish and Spanish masterpieces from the mid-13th to the mid-19th centuries. The museum’s greatest treasure, Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, is in a bullet-proof case.

Museum of Orsay
The museum is an impressively converted railway station located by the banks of the Seine. The attraction of this large museum is its collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art. The collection is arranged chronologically, beginning on the ground floor, jumping to the third, then descending to the middle level. Among the most famous works are five of Monet’s paintings of Rouen Cathedral.
