Explore The Unknown Places In Paris

By: michael hood

There are some places that people forget all about when they visit Paris. The island Ile St Louis, which is found directly behind Notre Dame, is full of little shops and plenty of places to sit and have a snack. It is a place that is always overlooked. If you are looking for books to collect, you will find the Shakespeare and Company is a fascinating place to shop for some old books. Then there is the St Severin Church where you can see the ceiling of palm trees in the nave. Then see the St Michel Fountain for its beauty.

In Montmartre, you can see the wall of love by the garden behind Abesses Metro. Montmartre is a beautiful old community of Paris and is filled with gardens and street artists selling their paintings. Shopping on Rue Lepic is ideal. Another great place that people forget to see is a show at the Moulin Rouge. Before leaving Montmartre, you should stop and see the Montmartre Cemetery where Degas is buried. Once you have seen all the popular attractions as well as the forgotten attraction in Montmartre, you should move on to the Left Bank.

The Left Bank has some unique places to visit such as the Cluny Museum. The Unicorn and Maiden tapestries on the upper level are just beautiful to see. The pedestrian bridge Pont des Arts is another place to see. There always seems to be some activities going on in the area. Then visit the oldest church in the area called the St German des Pres Church. The architecture is unbelievable and remarkably well detailed. Your cheap holidays to Paris will delight you when you take the time to see all the little things that everyone always misses because they do not know about them.

In the Luxembourg area, you can see the beautiful gardens and the Medici Fountain by the Statue of Liberty. There is a pond in the area where children have fun sailing boats around. You can visit the Pantheon by Rue Soufflot to see the beautifully designed interior. However, do not forget about Rue Mouffetard, which is a great street filled with shopping and some nice little cafes to sit and relax. This is an area that you could spend the entire day looking around so you do not miss anything.

One day, you should spend the day walking in the area of the Marais. This is considered one of the most beautiful areas of Paris. If you are looking for antiques, you will find the Village St Paul has some incredible pieces while the other shops on Rue St Paul have some fancy shopping. If you want to see the history of Paris, visit the Carnavalet Museum and do not forget to spend some time in the gardens. As you can see, there are many things to see in Paris when you are enjoying your holiday in Paris. You just need to concentrate on the things that everyone forgets about and avoid the crowds.
