A few more ideas for spending your time in my favorite city in the world:

Paris Opera House - It's absolutely gorgeous inside, well worth a visit (and, I think, included in the Museum Pass if you get that pass).

Pompidou Museum - Unless you really love modern art, it is not worth the bother to go to this museum. The building itself is hideous - it looks like an oil refinery. The layout of the collection is very confusing. (You might have guessed that although I love modern art, I hate the Pompidou.)

If you like Rodin sculpture ("The Thinker", etc.), a visit to the Rodin Museum, which is housed in a lovely old villa called Maison Biron (or something like that) is fun. Rodin's sculpture is quite sensual and wonderfully displayed at this museum.

The Tomb of Napoleon in the Museum de l'Armee at Hotel des Invalides is worth a visit. You will also note that for some of his generals, their bodies will be in one museum or church and their hearts will be in another!! Creepy, no???

When you are on the Left Bank, you will be close to my two favorite markets in Paris, which are very different from each other:

First, the street market in Rue de Buci is a classic local French market, with a number of wonderful shops, selling everything from fish to cheese to bread. It's at the intersection of Rue de Buci and Rue de Seine (as I recall). You'll find Rue de Buci just a block or two before Blvd. St.-Germain when going from the Seine towards Blvd. St.-Germain.

My other favorite food market in Paris is the incredible food hall of the Bon Marche - La Grande Epicerie de Paris, 38, rue de Sèvres. It's a wonderful adventure in French food. It's also the best place I can think of to get some goodies for a picnic, either in a park or in your hotel room. I can’t find an English website; but here is the French one:

The store is located just south of the intersection of rue de Sevres and Blvd. Raspail, a block or two from the Metro station "Sevres-Babylone". If you simply google, La Grand Epicerie, you'll get a map and loads of comments about the fantastic store, which some people consider to be better than the glorious Food Halls at Harrod's in London. (I have to disagree with that sentiment; but I remain convinced that La Grand Epicerie is a worthy stop on a visit to Paris.)

The food halls at Lafayette Gourmet in the Galleries Lafayette at 48 Blvd. Haussman are also quite good, although not nearly as vast as those at La Grande Epicerie. Have fun. Yumm, yumm!!

A bientot for now. Cheers, Fred
