48 hours in Paris

Paris is the dream of any traveler, a tourist and cultural


center of world importance. A city where the air really
smells of romance. A city where hundreds of artists
created a miracle, writers - a holiday, and history -
unsurpassed masterpieces of art.
Montparnasse is a mecca for Parisian artists and
intellectuals. It was the students who gave this area its
name, they turned this part of Paris into an intelligent and
cultural hangout. It was here that Modigliani and Picasso
once hung out, Fitzgerald and Apollinaire were inspired
by bohemian Paris, and the great Hemingway wrote notes
in his diary, which later turned into "A holiday that is
always with you".
Montmartre, on the one hand, is called the most
dangerous, on the other hand, the most romantic area of
Paris. This is a meeting place of various companies of
informals. But how can you not fall in love with these
small streets, cobblestones and wooden windows with red
vases.
Head to the famous Basilica of Sacre Coeur, and on the
way buy groceries for dinner. From the Cathedral of
Notre-Dame de Paris, you need to go along the rue
Monmartre, then along the Rochechouart to the Anvers
metro station, then to the Louise Michel square and up the
stairs to the Sacre Coeur Basilica itself. Near Sacre Coeur,
have a romantic dinner on the lawn with amazing views
of Paris at night.
The Georges Pompidou National Center for Arts and
Culture, or, as it is simply called, the Center Pompidou.
From the Musée d'Orsay, you need to go back to the
François Mitterrand embankment and go to Place
Châtelet, then exit to rue Renard (Rue Beaubourg), here at
number 19 is the Center Pompidou. The exposition of the
center is different directions of art of the 20th century:
starting from painting and ending with music. The
Pompidou Center is the third most visited attraction in
Paris after the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre. The
Pompidou Center is open every day, except Tuesday and
May 1, from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Tickets cost €14.
Just a 10 minute walk from the Center Pompidou at 28
Vieille du Temple is a great place to eat and drink. Les
Philosophes is a trendy bistro that is always crowded. It
has beautiful interiors and delicious and varied cuisine.
The menu is in French, but friendly waiters will advise
which dish to choose.
The business card of Paris, the dream of every traveler, a
building without which tourists and Parisians themselves
cannot even imagine Paris. A hundred years ago, Gustave
Eiffel did not think that soon his creation would become
famous all over the world, and thousands of tourists
would come to see Paris every year from the height of the
iron beauty. It is better to postpone climbing the Eiffel
Tower until the end of the day, in this way you will have
the opportunity to see both daytime landscapes and an
amazing view of Paris in the evening. Tickets for adults
cost €25.
