Now it’s time to visit this wonderful city!
Yesterday evening, when we arrived, we decided to point out our route, because we had to plan our three days in Paris. The first day, we will start with Avenue des Champs-Élysées. There are some lovely and posh shops, so I think we will spent some time over there. When we walk along this Avenue, we will pass ‘Place de la Concorde’ and ‘Jardin des Tuileries’ to end at ‘Musée Du Louvre’.
I have never visited this big museum before, so I hope my mates will go inside with me, today.

JARDIN DES TUILERIES
The Louvre Museum is one of the world’s largest museums, the most visited art museum in the world and also a historic monument. It is located on the Right Bank of the Seine in the 1 arrondissement. Nearly 35,000 objects from prehistory to the 19th century are exhibited over an area of 60,600 m².
So, this will be the first day. I hope we have enough time! The second day, we will visit the other side of the city, namely Montmartre, the highest point in the city. I would like to see ‘The Moulin Rouge’, because I really like the movie! J We will also pass by ‘Basillique du Sacré Coeur’, that’s a Roman Catholic church and minor basilica, dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The huge basilica is built from 1876 – 1914 and has a height of 83 meters and a width of 85 meters. When you stand in front of the ‘Sacré Coeur’, you have a great view onto the city, you can also see the Eiffel Tower, it’s amazing!
The third and also our last day in Paris, we will visit the Eiffel Tower and ‘La Défense’. The Eiffel Tower is a puddle iron lattice tower of 324 meters, located on the Champ de Mars. The Tower is the tallest building in Paris and the most-visited paid monument in the world. It is built in 1887 – 1889 by Gustave Eiffel and has become a global icon of France.

PARIS WAS AMAZING ! I really recommend you this fantastic city! I wish we could stay here another three days, but we have to move forward with our trip!
Sunny kiss, Charlotte!
