    Hi,

    Paris is a beautiful place and it is best enjoyed by foot. The local train service is excellent and you can go to almost any place using it . All you need to do is have a plan.

    This website gives all the information you need to visit Paris:
    Paris Places of Interest and Tourist Information

    Some of the must see places are Notre Dame, Triomphe De Arc, Eiffel Tower, Louvre museum - before going to Louvre, either read up Da Vinci code or buy the museum information book inside the museum an then go around looking, it will throw a lot of light and you will enjoy. I spent almost a ay in Louvre - if you are an art buff and if you have time, don't miss Versailles. Here you get to visit the palace of Louis XVI and Mary Antinnotte (Paris Places of Interest and Tourist Information). French revolution i very intereting and you get see the actual rooms where it all happened. If you are interested, Normandy is another place to visit (Battle of Normandy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).

    It is very easy to travel by train and the only trouble we had was sometimes with food (esp if you are vegetarian) and water - it is quite expensive. We just carried water around along with a some snacks and fruits. That said, we travelled with a one year old and had a fantastic time.

    My sincere advise, look up the places, see the distances and plan your trip. Everything else is easy. Hope it helps.

    All of you out there going on a holiday to Paris, have a great time.
