Paris Like a Native

This is one of the best parks in Paris. It’s the perfect place to walk your dog, have a picnic or go for jogging. You’ll find a couple of spots to grab drinks and public restrooms conveniently located, making it easy to spend a few hours here without a worry. The pavilion by the lake has the most beautiful views, especially around sunset.

Nice little butterfly zoo focuses on European species. This cute garden has a greenhouse filled with butterflies. Best of all, it’s free to visit! Just be sure to check the opening hours as it tends to close early.

Absolutely beautiful, one of my favorite places in Paris. The garden is beautifully designed and very well maintained. It's a great spot to take pictures. Make sure you check when the fountains are working.

The Louvre is massive and packed with incredible art, from the Mona Lisa to ancient sculptures. It’s a must-see, but definitely plan your visit so you don’t get overwhelmed. The building itself is gorgeous but you’ll have to wait about 20 minutes to get to the Mona Lisa. Also be aware of pickpockets in that area.

For a true Parisian dining experience, Bouillon offers delicious French food in a historic, wood-paneled setting. The classic decor and traditionally dressed waiters create an authentic bistro atmosphere. The best part? It’s very affordable, making it a great place to enjoy French cuisine without spending too much.
