If you enjoy history, tou must visit Museum Carnavalet-Histoire. Spending some time here gives you a chance for insight into Paris's past, which comes alive in details like the chessmen Louis XVI used to distract himself while waiting to go to the guillotine. The comprehensive and lifelike exhibits are great for kids.

Exhibits continue at the Hotel le Pelletier de St-Fargeau, across the courtyard. On display is furniture from the Louis XIV period to the early 20th century, including a replica of Marcel Proust's cork-lined bedroom with his actual furniture, including his brass bed. This section also exhibits artifacts from the museum's archaeological collection, including some Neolithic pirogues, shallow oak boats used for fishing and transport from about 4400 to 2200 B.C.

Paris is filled with beautiful gardens, and all make an unbelievably romantic setting. Luxembourg Gardens, in particular, is a great spot for couples, and is adjacent to the breathtaking Luxembourg Castle. You've seen the scene in almost every romance set in Paris: a couple embraces for a deep kiss on a bridge overlooking the Seine River. There's a reason filmmakers use this image. It's wonderfully romantic. Take your honey to the nearest bridge, walk to the center and get smooching.

One of Paris's most famous parks, Luxembourg was originally established in the 1600s. Not until the 19th century, however, were its grounds opened to the public. The park is known for its two elaborate fountains and for its manicured design.

While many folks come simply to enjoy its beauty, the park also invites folks to play a game of tennis or chess or sail a model boat across the water. Kids love Luxembourg's puppet shows, and everyone enjoys just sitting back and relaxing. 

It might seem strange for your late dinner to be interrupted by your waiter singing Neil Diamond to you at your table, but it's an experience that you definitely won't forget, and will likely enjoy. While the menu, all French, changes throughout the year. It`s good to stop here if your evening just starts and all long night is on our way.

The founders of La Samaritaine department store, Ernest Cognacq and his wife, Louise Jay, were fabled for their exquisite taste.

To see what they accumulated from around the world, head for this museum in the 16th-century Hôtel Denon, with its Louis XV and Louis XVI paneled rooms. Some of the 18th century's most valuable decorative works are exhibited, ranging from ceramics and porcelain to delicate cabinets and paintings ( e.g. Canaletto, Fragonard, Greuze, Chardin, Boucher, Watteau, and Tiepolo).

French-speaking interactive and animated "internet art" gets its very own festival, celebrated at Paris' Centre Pompidou.

This event is organised around the themes of creation and artistic diffusion of animated content (Shockwave Flash™) on the worldwide web. During the day, there are conferences and debates plus the chance to see the latest animation. In the evening, prizes are awarded to the best French-language internet sites.

Like its celebrated rival Les Deux Magots, Café de Flore can claim to have been the heart of the Existentialist Movement during the early part of this century with Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Camus and others regularly meeting here. 

The funky and hip Centre Pompidou features a wonderful collection of modern art within its creatively designed building.

It also features a cinema, concerts and children's activities. The Centre attracts 5.5 million visitors annually.

Sunny, lazy morning!

I love spring in Paris:) People have more time for outside activities. It`s time for chill out, babecues, parties with friends on the fresh air;)

Sacre Coeur is located on the top of Montmartre. It`s the highest hill in Paris. Wandering  through the historic cobbled streets you can watch the artists at work in place du Tertre.

Montmartre and Sacre Coeur can be found in the north of Paris in sector 18.
