A week in Paris is an opportunity to discover every corner of the capital. With or without a guide, let yourself be charmed by the cobblestone streets and the magic that emanates from the City of Light.
\nIn the heart of Paris, via the Ch\u00e2teau de Versailles or Disneyland, you won’t fail to enjoy this thousand-faced city.<\/em><\/p>\n

Here is an example of the kind of tour you might want to take during your week in the capital.<\/em><\/p>\n

DAY ONE :<\/h2>\n

In the heart of the city’s major arteries<\/h4>\n

Time you should spend in the Marais:<\/strong> 3 hours<\/p>\n

We recommend you to start with the district of the Marais<\/strong>. Located in the 3rd and 4th district, it offers a number of monuments that make the rich heritage of the city.\u00a0By the Town Hall<\/strong> and in the surrounding area, you can sunbathe by the fountains during summer, and skate on the ice during winter.<\/p>\n

This area<\/strong> reflects the soul of Paris as it is one of its oldest<\/strong>. The vestiges of its past, such as the Louvre Museum<\/strong>, the Hotel Carnavalet<\/strong> (also a museum which recounts the history of the capital), the Place des Vosges<\/strong> or the Hotel Sully<\/strong> reflect its historical force in the capital.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Then, we propose to picnic on the Place des Vosges<\/strong>, which offers a stunning setting with its arcades art and fine shops that surround this small peaceful garden gallery.<\/p>\n
