Things to do in Paris
The Louvre is the home of the Mona Lisa and one of the world's largest art galleries. It's a landmark in the city, sitting on the banks of the River Seine, Paris is also where you'll find the iconic Eiffel Tower, built as the entrance arch for the 1889 World Fair. The tower is 324m high and took a little over two years and two months to complete.
Underneath the city, explore the catacombs of Paris. The ancient caverns and tunnels have been partially renovated to make them safe to walk through. Starting just south of the old city gate at Place Denfert-Rochereau, the 18 th -century catacombs are classed as a City of Paris Museum.
Shopping
Paris has a chic atmosphere, and many fashion brands have a store here. The city is also covered in vintage shops, indie stores and alternative fashions. Put your nose in a book at Shakespeare and Company, an independent bookstore where the decor is just as interesting as the literature.
The Avenue des Champs-élysées is possibly the city's most famous shopping boulevard. With everything from clothes and toys to electronics, it's a tourist destination in its own right.
French cuisine
As you stroll around the city, you'll see plenty of street stalls selling hot, fresh crepes. If you're feeling adventurous, find a Paris restaurant with escargot - snails in butter - on the menu. In season, moules and huitres (mussels and oysters) add to the seafood options. Other classic French dishes include coq au vin and beef bourguignon. Vegetarians can enjoy the city's varied selection of cheeses and still-warm baguettes.
Family holidays
Disneyland Paris attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors every year, and it's got everything for families and kids of all ages to enjoy. Have a go on some of the rollercoasters and thrilling rides, take a look around the entertainment complexes, or try a spot of golf.
Taking the family to Paris has never been simpler - in 2014, the city became the first in Europe to offer kids' rental bikes to get around. The cycle hire scheme is open to kids as young as two, so everyone can pedal along and see more of the city together.
