Is the line insane? Cross the Tuileries, go to Musée de l'Orangerie, buy a Paris Museum Pass (and visit their awesome collection) and then come back to the Louvre and skip the line. Genius!
The hype is true. When you see the Eiffel Tower in person it is absolutely breathtaking. Go at night, stand directly below it, and look straight up. True beauty
One of the most beautiful churches I've seen, full of details outside and inside. The view is also amazing. Take the funicular to go up and then go down by foot
One of the oft missed by Paris visitors. However it is a must see. Try arriving via the Montmartre bus and alight at Place du Tertre. Walk through the market before reaching the basilica.
Its worth the 10 euro to climb the stairs to the tower.From the top you can see both the Eiffel tower and Sacre Coeur aka as Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Paris as well as see gargoyles up close.
The entire estate is truly a sight to behold, but I was most impressed with the individual sections of garden, which each have their own theme. Spend some time getting lost out there.
A hidden bar that has it all: low-key lighting, original cocktails (don't miss the Santa Margarita: tequila, agave, hibiscus, vanilla, lime), good music, flea-market-chic décor with a homey feel.
Don't try to actually enter via the little red door. its really little and you'll look pretty funny if you do, The actual (trick) door is to the left in the entryway.
