Awaken your spirit at Notre Dame, bargain hunt at the Marché aux Puces de Montreuil or for goodies at the Marché Biologique Raspail, then cap it all off with a risqué show at the Moulin Rouge.

The 7th Arrondissement is one of the most interesting and beautiful areas of Paris. We walked quite a lot through this area, mostly visiting various sights. And there is a multitude of amazing sights to visit, such as the Eiffel Tower, the Musee d'Orsay, the Hotel des Invalides, the Musee de l' Armee and Napoleon's Tomb, Musee Rodin and many others. One of the nicest things one can do is also a stroll down the banks of the River Seine, or a cruise if you prefer. Not to be missed.

As regular visitors to Paris over many years, my wife and I always make it a point to visit this icon of Arte Nouveau. It is strikingly beautiful, complex and engaging. Obviously not for everyone . . .

5. Rue Cler

This lively cobblestone street effectively preserves the ambience of Paris of old and is home to countless small shops.
Reviewed By Z3458RZerick - Orlando, United States
Rue Cler is a predominantly local market street, with individual shops for each food item. One shop for cheese. One for meats. One for fruit and veggies. Once for baked goods. Etc. There are also little cafes with street seating to sit and watch the world go round. If you go, be respectful of the locals...this is where they shop. Do yourself a favor...get a little something at several shops, get a bottle of wine, and go find some shade under a tree, or on a bench, at the south end of the Champs de Mars, and have a quiet picnic, and just enjoy being in Paris.
6. Basilique Sainte Clotilde

Reviewed By doctorbobster - Gainesville, United States
If you have any interest in medieval churches and find their interior and architecture to contain a special beauty, you want to stop here...especially during mass. While Notre Dame is tough to beat, Basilique Sainte-Clotilde more than holds its own. As a bonus, even on the Saturday evening mass when we stumbled in, the church was mostly empty. It was easy to relax and take in the Gothic interior. The best part of the experience was the one-woman choir who, accompanied by the organ, displayed the voice of an angel. The BS-C is near Les Invalides. If you are in the area, you should stop by.
7. Quai d'Orsay

Reviewed By B1714D - Belgrade, Serbia
Quai d'Orsay is on Seine's left bank around the famous same name museum. The quai passes Esplanade des Invalides and other prominent sights and is pretty much noisy. Therefore I'd suggest descending down to the river level for a quieter and more enjoyable walk. Across the river you can spot the Grand and Petit Palais just after the Alexander III bridge.
8. Chapelle Notre Dame de la Medaille Miraculeuse

Located close to Bon Marche supermarket which is the best landmark to give a taxi driver, the Chapel of the Miraculous Medal is a beautiful location which is very heavenly. Please check the opening hours to avoid the Church being closed or too busy. Mass times are particularly busy. The body of St Catherine is located at the top of the Church to the right of the main altar, to the right of St Catherine Laboure's tomb is the seat which is cornered off that Our Lady sat upon when St Catherine had her vision. The statue of Saint Vincent De Paul is behind the chair. (Please note the body of St Vincent de Paul is buried within walking distance from Rue de Bac). Mass is lovely but I also loved to sit in the Church and pray. There are some locals though who seems to sit in the Church all day. There is a gift shop on the way into the Church and this has lots of lovely souvenirs which you can purchase. Also to mention the body of St Louise de Marillac who is the co-founder of the Daughters of Charity is buried to the left of the Altar. I found this Church to be beautiful, heavenly and I will definitely return to see St Catherine Laboure. Please visit this beautiful location

We attended a concert by Philip Glenister, tenor and Laurana Mitchelmore, piano. The acoustics were excellent. I suggest you wear a warm coat. There will be 4 more recitals weekly on Sunday evenings 11/04-11/25 at 5:00 pm. Don’t miss them.
