Paris Trip Planning
Paris is a legendary city. It has marvelous architecture and a long history. Its spirit is hard to describe, it needs to be felt. I’ve heard controversial feedbacks about this city from different travelers who have visited it. And all of them are based on different reasons and experience.
Although Paris is a pretty typical tourist destination, I have never been obsessed with visiting it and it was not the first on my travel list. Finally, its turn has come! And I must say Paris is great, especially in spring.
Paris is big as well as the number of its sights worth seeing. You will need at least 3-4 days to see most of them. Check my list of things to do and see in Paris.
