Europe

Paris – France | Part 2

Well, third day in the French capital was busy. As soon as we managed to get out of the hotel, yes, because baby Alice likes to sleep late and okay, we don’t complain, we went to the Louvre Museum. After a quick breakfast, we enter this which is one of the most famous museums in the world.

A lot of people had the same idea as us. Louvre was full (but someday it’s not also right?!)
What??
We quickly passed the museum – it’s too big!
The famous and disputed Mona Lisa, among other paintings…

After the Louvre, we went to the Centre Pompidou, which houses a public library, the Museum of Modern Art (the largest in Europe) and the IRCAM (centre of music and acoustic research).

Then time to visit churches. First the Sainte-Chapelle and then the Notre-Dame de Paris. Fantastic!

And finally, we finished the day at the Eifell Tower.

Picnic in front of the tower… recommended.
