Paris in $540s-$560s RT

Paris might just be my favorite city in the world (syndrome be damned), so here are my top tips to make the most of your time there...

• The Pompidou is my favorite museum in the city—not just for the art, but for the stunning vistas of the entire city, Eiffel Tower included.
• You're going to Versailles and for good reason. But after exploring the palace and the popular parts of the gardens, go to Bosquet de L'Etoile. This calm lea in the middle of these bustling, touristy gardens is the dream if you're looking to lay in some grass for a bit.
• If you're looking for green space in the city itself, add Jardin du Luxembourg to your list. It's a bit less touristy (which means fewer vendors hawking keychains) than the Champ de Mars or the Tuileries Gardens, but still close enough to the center of the city where you don't have to go too far.

And, as always, a little bit of Chambord can't hurt either :-)
