    All it’s cracked up to be and more, truly great piece of architecture, great views from the top and watching the traffic going around is an attraction in itself, a must see

    A beautiful bridge, rain or shine. On overcast days the gold stands out even more. Ample photo opportunities. If you’re only going to visit one bridge, make this that one

    It’s very busy, even in the middle of winter. Some exteriors, such as LV, are very impressive. Not necessarily a good place to shop for the “average” person, but worth a look.

    Beautiful museum and testament to a families rich history. Be sure to watch the video on the top floor before beginning your tour.

    We have visited often. We did not know there were galleries under the main floor. We would not have known but for going to the current special exhibit about etching. Super. So too the collections we had missed on all our previous visits. Shame on us. We stayed for a light lunch. Very efficient service and good pasta. To be in such a venue is a special honor.

    I really enjoyed my visit! It is a house tour that is a little off the beaten path of the Paris museums. Not far from Arc de Triomphe. Interesting architectural details and a perhaps slightly oddball but interesting collection of pieces.

    La Madeleine ( Church Of Sainte Marie Madeleine ) is a great looking Roman Catholic Church located on Place De La Madeleine that's always a joy to visit on any holiday I take to this most vibrant and beautiful of city's.
    Constructed between 1807-1828 ,the work of architect Pierre Alexandre Vignon ,it's in my opinion the best example of Neo Classical style architecture in the city of light,it's designated Monument Historique meaning it's one of the great buildings of the city .
    I love the look of the building ,the impressive columns ,the wonderful reliefs ,the general look of the building,it's just an amazing church building to view ,it's easy to locate on Place De La Madeleine and well worth checking out if you're in the area.

    Hold on to your head here as this was the place the big guillotine was set up for the temporary end of the nobility. No more blood in the streets, but now a huge traffic circle, a bit chaotic, with very grand buildings and sculpture all around. Near the Louvre.

    Working with Easy Go was so easy and efficient! I was able to quickly connect with my driver via WhatsApp and he waited and stayed in touch when going through immigration took long (2.5 hours!)

    I’m so glad I used Easy Go for a transfer, made the journey more relaxing and easy. Would definitely use them again the next time I’m in Paris!

    This piece of Egyptian history originally was built during the reign of Pharoah Ramesses II to be one of a set of two obelisks to be at either side of the portal for the Luxor Temple. Both obelisks were gifted to France in 1830. The costs associated with moving the first obelisk negated any thought of bringing the second one to France. Today it stands in the center of Place de la Concorde. A gold leaf pyramidion was added to the top in 1998.

    This huge expo palace has been the site of many extraordinary shows, but now is closed for extensive renovations. You can get a good sense of its beauty and size by walking around, but it's a shame I could not go inside.

    This was once the seat of the high fashion houses, where women would go to view live models showing the latest and be fitted for their own gowns. While there is still some high end shopping here, much of that has moved on and been replaced by offices. There are a couple of grand hotels and the lovely Champs Elysee Theater. A very upper class part of town.

    Right next to Parc Monceau. In a pagoda style building with Asian art going back thousands of years.

    Stretching out to the west, this was once the route that carts took to bring food to Les Halles for sale. Now it is a fairly narrow traffic street with some luxury shopping and a few churches. Good for window shopping.
