The Parisian art scene is impossible to resist, so head to the Louvre (+01.40.20.53.17, www.louvre.fr), the world’s largest museum and home to the famous Mona Lisa. For a taste of expressionism, impressionism, and Modern Art, visit the renowned collection at the gracious Musée D’Orsay (+01.40.49.48.14, www.musee-orsay.fr). And no tour of Paris would be complete without a stop at the Musée Rodin (77 Rue de Varenne, +01.44.18.61.10, www.musee-rodin.fr), where you can pose for photos before such famous Auguste Rodin sculptures as The Kiss and The Thinker.
But of course, there’s a reason that Paris is called the City of Light. At night, the town is illuminated by the dancing reflections that emanate from Paris’ street lamps, monuments, and architectural wonders. Cruise down the Seine or pick a perch on one of the river’s 31 bridges. For something a bit more dramatic, check out the extravagant and sexy cabaret at Lido de Paris (Champs-Elysées, +01.40.76.56.10, www.lido.fr) for a different kind of light show.
But it is in the sidewalk cafés, restaurants, and bars that true eloquence of involvement is found in Paris. Even a simple picnic of fromage et baguette (with accompanying vin rouge, naturally) at the Place des Vosges rivals the most sumptuous dining at any five-star New York restaurant. It is in such elemental pleasures that you’ll truly discover your version of Paris and have a lifetime’s trove of memories from which to dip.
