No New Posts Bois de Boulogne - 2 Viewing

The Bois de Boulogne is Paris' best park. Over twice the size of New York's Central Park, the Bois de Boulogne is filled with various attractions including a lake filled with rowboats and waterbirds, a horse-racing track, a small amusement park (complete with a menagerie of exotic animals), and a carousel. Of course, there are also verdant lawns and tree-shaded paths for your recreational pleasure. Just be wary of the park at night...

No New Posts The Catacombs - 1 Viewing

Far below the streets of Paris, there is a whole different world. While the city above is noted for its lights, the catacomb system under Paris is a dark place-- still mysterious. This is the place for all intrepid explorers. But, be careful! It's easy to lose your way.

No New Posts Les Deux Magots Cafe - 1 Viewing

Les Deux Magots Cafe is a mecca for the arty and psuedo-arty types. Once the haunt of greats like Pablo Picasso and Simone de Beauvoir, the cafe embodies Paris' cafe culture. Outside, patrons smoke, drink coffee, and read newspapers or chat with friends. Inside, the cozy atmosphere begs you to stay for a meal.

No New Posts Metro Station - 1 Viewing

"The Metro". "The Subway". "The Tube." No matter what you prefer to call it, it will take you almost anywhere you want to go. It also opens up opportunities to meet people you never thought (or sometimes hoped) you would.

No New Posts Opera Garnier

Welcome to the Opera Garnier, which, despite its name, houses both an opera company and Paris’ premiere ballet troupe. Attached is the Paris Academy of Music. Inside the baroque walls of the Garnier, though, you’ll find more than just singers, dancers and students. The building’s history contains enough ghost stories, war stories, and love stories to be turned into its own production.

No New Posts The Seine River - 1 Viewing

The Seine river is the vein that courses through all of Paris. Big and winding, it's a great resource for cargo ships, but not so much for swimming, for you might catch more than just fish if you do.

No New Posts Tiffany's & Co.

Not everyone can be a Holly Golightly, but anyone can feel like a glamour-queen when they put on jewels from Tiffany's. Whether that little box is gift for a loved one or a gift for yourself, you be certain you are getting quality (albeit expensive) jewelry. The only buyer's remorse you'll have is not buying another gold piece.

No New Posts La Tour D'Argent - 1 Viewing

La Tour D'Argent is one of Paris' finest restaurants. Its owners claim that the restaurant dates back to the time of Henry IV, but the first record of La Tour D'Argent is in 1860. Either way, the restaurant is one of those places in Paris that has always been part of the landscape, nestled happily between the Seine River and the Notre Dame-- both of which can be seen from the dining room. Come to La Tour D'Argent and order from an array of gastronomic goodies-- the roast duck is divine-- and enjoy a night of perfect, Parisian romance.
