    The Eiffel Tower, an iconic symbol of Paris, stands majestically on the Champ de Mars, attracting millions of visitors with its panoramic views of the city. The wrought iron lady – a tower is feminine in French – is a must-see if you come to Paris. With a height of 1,063 ft, 3 storeys and a 674-step staircase, it certainly can't go unnoticed.

    You'll find a Michelin-starred restaurant and a macaron bar on the second floor, and a champagne bar on the third floor. Its worldwide fame makes the Eiffel Tower a crowded place, and you should be aware of scam artists roaming the area. It’s also a good idea to book a ticket online beforehand if you want to get to the top by lift.

    Arc de Triomphe is undoubtedly one of the most iconic monuments in Paris. Inaugurated in 1836, the mighty structure was originally built to commemorate Napoleon's 1805 victory at Austerlitz, and today stands as a tribute to the French soldiers who lost their lives fighting in World War I, the Napoleonic Wars and the French Revolution.

    The imposing 50-metre structure sits at the western end of the Champs-Élysées in the center of Place Charles de Gaulle. Inscribed on the Arc's walls are the names of all France's wartime victories and its generals, and underneath the structure lies the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. It's possible to climb the Arc's 280 steps for breathtaking views of the Paris skyline.

    Montmartre is one of the most picturesque districts in the city. It’s a quaint neighbourhood that feels almost like a village in a big city, with charming streets and a bohemian atmosphere. Built on a hill, it has the splendid Sacré-Coeur Basilica as its centrepiece, overlooking the city with its stunning Romano-Byzantine architecture.

    Renowned for an artistic scene that attracts myriad painters, musicians and writers, Montmartre is a pretty active area at night. You’ll find nightclubs, live music venues and, down the hill on the southwestern side, the world-famous cabaret show at Moulin Rouge.

    The Seine is the 5th longest river in France and its course through the centre of Paris offers you the opportunity to see many of the most notable monuments of the city from a different angle. Bateaux Mouches (meaning ‘fly boats’), long and thin open excursion boats, take you to view the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Museum, the Town Hall, and many more places of interest on cruises that last slightly more than 1 hour.

    A cruise on the Seine allows you to appreciate the beauty of the Parisian architecture along the riverbanks. If you really want to indulge yourself, a dinner cruise is worth the extra cost as the monuments are even more beautiful when illuminated at night.

    Địa điểm: Port de la Conférence, Port de la Bourdonnais, Quai Branly and Quai de Montebello are a few of the Seine River excursion boats embarking ports in Paris, France

    The Palace of Versailles is not exactly in Paris as it’s about 20 km southwest from the city centre. A symbol of the absolute monarchy that ended with the French Revolution in 1789, the palace is now a museum and one of the most visited historical sites in France. It was entirely restored to the appearance it had during the 17th century, so you really feel like you’ve travelled to the past when walking through the Hall of Mirrors or in the King’s Apartment.

    The gardens that surround Versailles are also an impressive illustration of jardin à la française—French-style gardening. You can lose yourself for the day in Versailles Palace, as a good choice of restaurants and snack bars are available right next to the park.

    Vine-growing and wine-making in Paris dates back to the Roman Empire. Even though it might not be as renowned as the nearby Burgundy and Champagne vineyards, at The Clos Montmartre, you can visit a vineyard and sample a wine produced in Paris itself.

    The Clos Montmartre is a 1,550 square metre vineyard a mere 300 metres from the Sacré-Coeur Basilica. It produces a decent Gamay/Pinot Noir wine. You’ll find a celebration of it at a yearly event in October, the Harvest Festival of Montmartre.
