Who goes to Paris for 24 hours? Me.

 

 

 

 

As you probably know, there are a million and one things to do and see in Paris so it was a difficult task narrowing down the to-do list. I was traveling on a serious budget so i decided to hit some of the free sites. Below is a list of the top free sites in Paris. FREE PEOPLE!! There are a ton not listed but keep in mind i tried to hit as many as possible in 24 hours.

  1. Eiffel Tower – need I say more??
  2. Cathédrale Notre Dame de Paris – pictured above
  3. Marché aux Puces de St-Ouen – this is a big flea market that was founded in the 19th century. They have clothes, furniture and all kinds of things. check it out.

  4. Parc du Champ de Mars – everyone wants to go to the top of the Eiffel Tower but it will cost you a pretty penny. Parc du Champ de Mars is an area of lawns and flowerbeds that provide a stunning view of the Eiffel Tower.

  5. Cimitière du Père Lachaise – for those who love the dark side of a beautiful city as i do this cemetery is filled with literary geniuses. This includes Proust and Balzac, and more modern icons like Oscar Wilde and Edith Piaf.

  6. Walk along the Seine River. there are a ton of little crepe stands and coffee shops. Awesome macaroons along the way as well because… its Paris.
  7. Take some pictures outside the Louvre. Although you cant see the Mona Lisa, its overrated anyway. take a few pictures outside the world famous museum and move on with your day.
