But in a short visit can not miss us know milestones as: Tower, Eiffel, Trocadero, the banks of the river Seine, Notre Dame, the Bastille area restaurants, bars that exist in all of Paris, the Pompidou Center, museums of the Louvre and d'Orsay, the Bohemian Montmartre and the Basilica of the sacred heart. All the time that passes in Paris, always appear and will be little.
