What To Expect
Palais-Royal (Pass By)
Is a former French royal palace located on Rue Saint-Honoré in the 1st arrondissement of Paris. The screened entrance court faces the Place du Palais-Royal, opposite the Louvre.
Louvre Museum (Pass By)
Louvre Museum, is a national art museum in Paris, France. It is located on the Right Bank of the Seine in the city's 1st arrondissement (district or ward) and home to some of the most canonical works of Western art.
Pont Neuf (Pass By)
The Pont Neuf is the oldest standing bridge across the river Seine in Paris, France. It stands by the western (downstream) point of the Île de la Cité, the island in the middle of the river that was, between 250 and 225 BC, the birthplace of Paris, then known as Lutetia and, during the medieval period, the heart of the city.
Place Dauphine (Pass By)
The Place Dauphine is a public square located near the western end of the Île de la Cité in the first arrondissement of Paris.
Notre-Dame (Pass By)
Notre-Dame de Paris meaning ("Our Lady of Paris"), referred to simply as Notre-Dame, is a medieval Catholic cathedral on the Île de la Cité (an island in the Seine River), in the 4th arrondissement of Paris, France. The cathedral, dedicated to the Virgin Mary, is considered one of the finest examples of French Gothic architecture.
Ile de la Cite (Pass By)
Ile de la Cité, once known as Lutetia, is the oldest settlement in Paris, and boasts more than its fair share of Paris sights: the Pont Neuf, the Pont de l’Archevêché and Notre Dame cathedral, to name only three. Its location bang in the middle of Paris, with Châtelet to the north and Saint-Germain-des-Prés to the south, makes it the central crossroads of the city, which grew outwards from here. When you’ve finished visiting all the sights, take one last admiring look at the magnificent facade of Notre Dame, then stroll along the banks of the Seine and stop to watch improvised concerts by wandering musicians, for whom this area is a prime performance venue. Ile de la Cité is also the perfect place for a riverside picnic. At night, the bridges are beautifully lit, and there is a feeling of midsummer magic.
Quartier Latin (Pass By)
No trip to Paris is complete without a visit to the Latin Quarter in the 5th arrondissement, on the Left Bank. The area’s many cafés and restaurants are laid-back and welcoming; they are filled with Parisians, students and tourists. There are several attractions to visit, among them the Pantheon, the Musée National du Moyen-Âge, the Luxembourg gardens and museum and the Arènes de Lutèce. As you stroll through the district you will also come across the Sorbonne, the best known university in Paris; the Collège de France, the Lycée Henri IV, the shopping streets Rue Mouffetard and Rue Monge and the charming Place de la Contrescarpe. The district also has popular show venues like the Paradis Latin, the Théâtre de l’Odéon and the Caveau de la Huchette.
Fontaine Saint-Michel (Pass By)
The Saint Michel Fountain is located between the boulevard Saint-Michel and the Place Saint-André-des-Arts. It depicts the archangel Michael vanquishing the Devil, evoking thoughts of the battle between Good and Evil. It was commissioned by Haussmann, under Napoleon III.
Invalides (Pass By)
The Hôtel des Invalides, commonly called Les Invalides is a complex of buildings in the 7th arrondissement of Paris, France, containing museums and monuments, all relating to the military history of France, as well as a hospital and an Old Soldiers' retirement home, the building's original purpose.
Quais de la Seine (Pass By)
Since the Gaulish Parisii tribe settled here in Roman times, Paris has been built up on either side of the river. The history of the city’s development can be followed along the banks of the Seine, which are a UNESCO World Heritage site. From historic monuments and architectural gems to waterfront developments, this walk – or cycle ride – will take you on a journey back in time.
Eiffel Tower (Pass By)
Eiffel Tower, wrought-iron structure in Paris that is among the most famous landmarks in the world. It is also a technological masterpiece in building-construction history. It was designed and built (1887–89) by Gustave Eiffel and named in his honor.
Arc de Triomphe (Pass By)
The Arc de Triomphe honours those who fought and died for France in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, with the names of all French victories and generals inscribed on its inner and outer surfaces. Beneath its vault lies the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier from World War I
Champs-Elysees (Pass By)
The Champs-Élysées avenue is so beautiful... it's like a postcard! Almost 2 km long, this historic thoroughfare links the Place de la Concorde to the monumental Arc de Triomphe. But before it became the "most beautiful avenue in the world", the Champs-Élysées was a swamp. It was in the 17th century that Le Nôtre, Louis XIV's gardener, laid "the first stones". From then on, the avenue was constantly embellished. A myth was born!
Grand Palais (Pass By)
The Grand Palais des Champs-Élysées, commonly known as the Grand Palais (English: Great Palace), is a historic site, exhibition hall and museum complex located at the Champs-Élysées in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, France. Construction of the Grand Palais began in 1897 following the demolition of the Palais de l'Industrie (Palace of Industry) to prepare for the Universal Exposition of 1900
Place de la Concorde (Pass By)
Place de la Concorde lies at the foot of the Champs-Élysées avenue. Today, it is distinguished by the Luxor Obelisk (3,300 years old with J-C and erected in May 1998), the prestigious hotels that line it and the two monumental fountains (Fontaine des Mers and Fontaine des Fleuves). Created in 1772, the Place de la Concorde was first known as a place of execution during the French Revolution. Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette (among others) were guillotined here. It was between 1836 and 1846 that architect Jacques-Ignace Hittorf shaped the square into what it is today.
Saint-Germain-des-Pres (Pass By)
Until the 17th century the land where the quarter is located was prone to flooding from the Seine, and little building took place there; it was largely open fields, or prés, which gave the quarter its name.
La Comedie Francaise (Pass By)
Established as a French state-controlled entity in 1995, it is the only state theatre in France to have its own permanent troupe of actors.
