Parc des Buttes-Chaumont
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.

Bouillon Chartier Grands Boulevards
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.

Jardin Des Papillons - Parc Floral de Paris
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.
Parks & …
Louvre Museum
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.

Av. des Champs-Élysées
This avenue is one of the most iconic streets in Paris, and also one of the longest you’ll ever see. Filled with high end shopping, you can take a walk at night and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Arc de Triomphe.

This cute little side street is filled with colorful houses painted in pastel pinks, blues, greens, and yellows, making it a good spot for a picture. There are 'no photography' signs and people live here, so always be mindful.

Albert-Kahn Garden
This garden is a hidden gem for nature and photography lovers and it features a unique mix of styles: a Japanese garden with authentic lodges straight from Japan, a classic French formal garden, and an elegant English garden. What makes it special is the way color plays a key role. At night, the garden transforms into a magical space, with 450 spotlights illuminating the paths.

L'Eclair de Génie Café
If you love éclairs, this is the spot. Éclair de Génie takes this classic French pastry to a whole new level with stunning designs and unique flavors. The passion fruit éclair is out of this world, with a perfect balance of sweetness and flavor. The shop is small but beautifully arranged, and each éclair looks like a piece of art. A bit pricey, but absolutely worth it.

Eiffel Tower
You can’t come to Paris without seeing the Eiffel Tower. Whether you go all the way to the top or just admire it from below, it’s absolutely magical. The best time to visit is at night when it lights up and sparkles every hour. I recommend purchasing tickets ahead of time, especially if you want to go up to the summit.

Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris
Despite the fire, Notre-Dame remains a symbol of Paris. Cathedral is temporarily closed but even if you can’t go inside, the exterior and the surrounding area are worth a visit. If you take a walk around it you can take some photos of the stunning architecture.

Galeries Lafayette Haussmann
This century-old department store has a steel-frame art nouveau glass dome ringed by loggias. You’ll find top fashion labels, perfumes, and even a huge gourmet food section. Even if you’re not into shopping, the rooftop terrace has one of the best free views of Paris, perfect for a photo with the Eiffel Tower in the background.

Melt
Great Texan Barbecue restaurant offers meat cooked at low temperature for several hours. The meat is tasty, tender and succulent, a little piece of Texas in Paris. It seems that everything is homemade. Food is outstanding, particularly the brisket.

Musée d'Orsay
This museum is absolutely beautiful. It’s inside a historic train station, which gives it such a unique charm. Honestly, I love it even more than the Louvre. The collection is incredible, with masterpieces from Van Gogh, Monet, and so many more. And the iconic clock inside? So stunning. You don’t even need to book tickets in advance because the line isn’t too bad.
