Back
 Paris is not just any city, it’s a mosaic of villages and neighbourhoods, each one with its own special identity, quite different from the others. You’ll soon fall under the spell of the contours, features and particular character of each one. Depending on your mood and taste, choose the Paris that appeals to you using our presentation of the principal Parisian districts. You’ll find details of the places mentioned in our information pages and a full description of everything each of these neighbourhoods has to offer in the guidebook Paris for you, published annually in French and in English by the Paris Convention and Visitors Bureau. It is distributed free of charge in all our welcome centres.
Monumental Paris
 Tour Eiffel, Pont Alexandre III, Invalides, Palais de Tokyo
This is the Paris of wide-open spaces. On each side of the Seine, at the foot of the Eiffel Tower: stately and majestically proportioned palaces, stunning views and ministries tucked away in very special mansion houses…
Upon leaving the streets of the old part of town, you are immediately caught by the fresh air and buffeted by the wind. Stand in awe beneath the dome of the Invalides, then come back to earth to discover the charming Musée Rodin and its gardens. On the other   side of the esplanade des Invalides, there is only the splendid Alexandre III Bridge between you and the buzz of the Champs-Elysées. What a place! Everywhere you look, the horizon seems remote, and the perspective is only broken by the imposing horizontal lines of huge buildings dominated by the famous Tower. You can climb its three floors to admire the view, then stretch out on the lawns of the Champ-de-Mars. Opposite, you can see Trocadéro with its museums and, down below, the Palais de Tokyo.
