The Journey
Le Marais
Explore Le Marais, a trendsetting district nestled in the 3rd and 4th arrondissements of Paris. Known for its blend of medieval streets, charming boutiques, and vibrant art scene, Le Marais offers a unique atmosphere. Discover hidden courtyards, admire the architecture of its small mansions (hôtels particuliers), and browse the vintage stores that give this area its distinctive character. Once the aristocratic heart of Paris, now a vibrant hub of culture and style.
The Louvre Museum (Exterior)
Behold the Louvre Museum, a world-renowned art museum and former royal palace. While we won't be entering, immerse yourself in the grandeur of its architecture and rich history. Appreciate its iconic façade, and learn about its transformation from a fortress to a royal residence, eventually becoming one of the world's most celebrated museums, housing masterpieces like the Mona Lisa. The Courtyard itself is a testament to French architectural prowess across centuries.
Tuileries Garden
Stroll through the Tuileries Garden, the largest and oldest garden in Paris, dating back to the 17th century. Originally designed by André Le Nôtre, the same landscape architect behind the gardens of Versailles, the Tuileries offer a serene escape with meticulously manicured lawns, vibrant flowerbeds, and elegant statues. Breathe in the fragrant air and admire the sculptures that adorn this historic garden, connecting the Louvre to the Place de la Concorde. It is a perfect place for a leisurely walk or a moment of peaceful contemplation amidst the bustling city.
Place de la Concorde
Discover the Place de la Concorde, a historic square steeped in French history. This landmark is home to the Marine Museum, the luxurious Hotel Le Crillon, and the ancient Obelisk of Luxor, a gift from Egypt. Learn about the significant historical events that unfolded here, from the French Revolution to its current role as a central Parisian hub. Admire the grand fountains and the panoramic views of the Champs-Élysées and the Tuileries Garden. This is where French history was made.
Pont Alexandre III
Admire the Pont Alexandre III, widely regarded as the most beautiful bridge in Paris. Spanning the Seine River, this ornate bridge symbolizes the friendship between France and Russia, dating back to the alliance between the French government and the Russian Empire under Tsar Alexander III. Marvel at its gilded statues, intricate detailing, and the stunning views it offers of the Eiffel Tower and Les Invalides. This bridge is more than just a crossing; it's a testament to artistry and international diplomacy.
Les Invalides
During your picnic, enjoy the view of Les Invalides, a grand military hospital dating back to the 17th century. Commissioned by Louis XIV, this complex houses the tomb of the famous Emperor Napoléon Bonaparte. Observe the iconic golden dome of the Église du Dôme, which marks Napoléon's final resting place. This site offers a glimpse into France's military history and the enduring legacy of one of its most significant leaders.
Eiffel Tower (Exterior)
Stand at the foot of the iconic and impressive Eiffel Tower, a symbol of Paris and France. While we won't be ascending the tower, learn about its fascinating history and construction. Built for the 1889 World's Fair, the Eiffel Tower was initially met with controversy but soon became a beloved landmark. Capture unforgettable photos and appreciate the engineering marvel that defines the Parisian skyline.
Luxembourg Garden
Wander through the delightful Luxembourg Garden, a serene oasis in the Latin Quarter. This garden is home to the French Senate, housed in the magnificent Luxembourg Palace. Enjoy the formal gardens, picturesque fountains, and tree-lined promenades. You'll find children sailing model boats on the central pond, sculptures scattered throughout, and locals relaxing in the iconic green chairs. The Luxembourg Garden offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and tranquil beauty.
Notre Dame Cathedral (Exterior)
Witness the resilience of Notre Dame Cathedral, a symbol of Paris and French Gothic architecture. While we won't enter, learn about its rich history, admire its iconic facade, and observe the impressive gargoyles that adorn its exterior.

Reflect on the cathedral's role in French history and its enduring spiritual importance.
