Author: Amanda Sutcliffe

Paris, the capital city of France, is known as the 'City of Light' and 'Fashion Capital of the World'. One of the prominent European cities in terms of fashion, arts, commerce, and science, it always charms its visitors with its architectural wonders and fabulous experiences. During your time spent in the French capital, you'll also come across its world-class museums. According to statistics, over 20 million tourists arrived in Paris during 2017. This makes it one of the world's leading tourist destinations. While getting around in the city you'll have the opportunity to explore the world-renowned attractions in this part of the world.

Your holidays to Paris would be truly pleasant if you visit during its summer season between June and August. This time of the year is characterised by comfortable daytime temperatures, which allows you to enjoy sightseeing and other activities outdoors. However, you'll have to make your hotel reservations or get the holiday packages months in advance, as this is a peak tourist season with a heavy rush of tourists. You'll be able to book your hotel stays at reasonable rates during the autumn months of September and October. The only exception would be the last week of September when the Paris Fashion Week draws a large number of visitors to the city.

If you wish to have cheap holidays to Paris and can withstand a chilly weather, visit during the winter season which begins in the month of November and lasts until February. The month of December also gets a good amount of rainfall. Flights and hotel stays would certainly be a lot cheaper in the winter months, but the airfares and room rates go up considerably when it's time for Paris Fashion Week again in the last week of February. Spring arrives in the month of March and stays until May. This is considered as a shoulder season and can also be a good time to visit owing to average temperatures and rains in the afternoons.

While enjoying your holidays to Paris, you can't afford to miss the Eiffel Tower. This iconic attraction of the French capital is visited by almost all the tourists holidaying in the city. As you explore this tower, you can get to the top level to savour the panoramic views of Paris and its surroundings. Another famous offering in this part of France is the Louvre Museum. The glass pyramid of the museum's building was designed by I.M. Pei, a renowned Chinese American architect.

Another historic structure worth exploring during your time spent in this city is the Notre-Dame Cathedral. It took about 150 years to construct the building, which is located in the heart of Paris. You'll be amazed to see the magnificent sculptures as well as the overall design of Notre-Dame. The Musee d'Orsay or the Orsay Museum would be a great place to browse through a great collection of artworks. It is home to the best pieces of Impressionist art created by master artists, such as Edgar Degas and Edouard Manet. You'll also find a fantastic restaurant and cafes in the Orsay Museum.
