Hubby and I will be in Paris for 4 days, what are the MUST SEE?

what are the main tourist spots in paris (aside from eiffel) and how far are they from each other? our hotel is located in a suburb called Asnières-sur-Seine so how far is that from disneyland and versailles? what are the trains to take?

we will be in disneyland paris for the 3rd day and versailles on the 4th day so we will basically spend only 2 days in the main city. we love museums, cathedrals and historical places so any suggestions?
thanks and 10 points to the best answer.






Answer :
I found the trains very confusing they have two systems that meet at various points. One is for inside the city the other goes outside the city so if you get on the wrong train you wont know until it is to late. I used the buses much easier. I would recommend checking out a pass like this one http://www.parispass.com/ it gives you access into major attractions without waiting in line. I believe there is a Shuttle that goes out to disneyland your hotel can let you know for sure.

Most of the major tourist attractions are within walking distance of each other, Notre Dame, Louvre, ect. the eiffel tower is on the other side of town. I would recommend the Pantheon it is where Marie Skłodowska-Curie is buried.

I'm not familiar with where your hotel is but I hope the other information is helpful.

*They use the Euro everywhere in Paris*






Answer :
The Louvre and Notre Dame are definitely must sees, and so is Napoleon's tomb. I wish I could tell you exactly where to find these places, but I had no trouble walking on foot to all three in one day, as well as hitting the subway to see the eiffel tower. They are all pretty close in that regards. I found I had the most fun just walking around on foot and admiring everything that caught my eye. I hope you guys have as much fun there as I did. Good luck.






Answer :
It's a good idea to have the Euro on hand for when you get there. Notre Dame Cathedral was amazing! We had Mass there on Sunday morning (and on nice days they say you can climb the steps to the tower).
The Louvre is supposed to be awesome, but the lines were insanely long. I recommend buying tickets in advance if you decide to go to the Louvre or Eiffel Tower. You can do so online. Also, not sure if you're aware, but admittance into Versaille is free on Sundays through March.
I'm not sure how far apart everything is, but we found it easy and inexpensive enough to use the Metro. You can also purchase Metro tickets in advance online.
Enjoy!!!






Answer :
On the list of things to do in order:

1. Boat ride right before sunset.
This has got to be my favorite thing that I did when I last was in Paris. If you go along the river, you'll see boats that take you along to see the bridges. If you go during the daytime it is terrible! You need to get to the Eiffel Tower, and right about 30 minutes before sundown, you go to the river next to the tower and purchase a ticket for the next boat out. When you leave, you'll see the Eiffel Tower light up at night, and get to see all the famous bridges of Paris lit up.
I promise you that it will be your favorite thing, by far. Really scenic, very romantic.

2. The Louvre
If you love history or art at all you should visit the Louvre. They have some of the world's most famous sculptures and paintings there. The famous statue of Athena and the Mona Lisa are there, not to mention some of Michelangelo's works. Very big place. You can't really see all of it, it's just too much! The area is very close to everything else in Paris, so I suggest you take a walk around. It's pretty.

3. Go to the Cathedral Notre Dame.
This place is HUGE!!! I'm not even religious and I was just moved by the vastness of the main hall. I mean, they built it for the purpose of wow-ing peasants but I mean WOW! That place was cool.

4. Go shopping in Galeries Lafayette!
Biggest mall I've ever been to! I bought all the gifts for my friends and relatives there. The place is gigantic, and it'll even have some brands that you are familiar with. Plus plenty of stylish ones that you are not. It's not your typical mall :)

I didn't put the tower on here because obviously, you can't visit Paris without going to the Eiffel tower.

I also suggest that you guys do a lot of walking around the area. The buildings in some areas are very old and historic, and the streets are quaint. Visit the pubs!

I was only in Paris for two days sadly, but the one thing that I liked the most was the boat ride.
Make sure you go right before sunset!!!! If you go during the daytime it's just not the same. Not even close.

If you're wondering where everything is, simply Google them before you go. Google maps will have the subway stations and addresses. If you know how to get to Yahoo answers I assume you know how to use Google maps. Have a fun and safe trip!

I'm going back to France as soon as I get the chance. Probably this summer along with Barcelona.
