La Défense

Going on a short trip to the city of love? I’ve got you 🫶🏻 I have put way more places and addresses in this guide than it is possible to do over the course of 3 days, so that depending on your taste and travel style, you can choose across a wide variety of things to do and see. The places tagged (82) have, for nearly all of them, links attached to them for further history context or link to website for restaurants. Enjoy your stay in Paris 🇫🇷

Paris, the city of light, where history is intertwined with modernity. From the Eiffel Tower to the cafes in Montmartre, the French capital full of culture, gastronomy and artistic treasures. It is the destination where art, fashion and elegance intertwine.
