Shops and food! A modern mall in a modern station. Catch TGV, metro, RER and bus from the terminal. Try the cafes just outside the station.
One of the oft missed by Paris visitors. However it is a must see. Try arriving via the Montmartre bus and alight at Place du Tertre. Walk through the market before reaching the basilica.
Try and see the church from a distance e.g. From the opposite road, seine cruise, etc. to comprehend its full majesty!
Top 5 must sees, Mona Lisa, Winged victory of Somathrace, Hammurabi Code, Venus de Milo, Michelangelo's Slaves. Further 5, Sphinx, Winged bull, Seated scribe, borghese gladiator, madonna
Reach via Metro 6. First view will be visible when metro passes over the Bir Hakiem bridge. Get down at Bir Hakiem stop. It is best to book your ticket online. Lines at the counters can be humongous.
Value for money. Very near to Metro, Tram and bus stops. Easy to reach Gare de Lyon. Convenient and ok rooms. Wi-fi is not available in rooms. Internet very slow!
Awesome ice-creams. Try the signature "Mona-Lisa" and Tiramisu!!! Also great value for money. One scoop is one euro. Awesome!!!
Tasty pizzas, pide and shawarma (called donër kebap here). Authentic middle eastern cooking. Try baklava when they make it.
Try their daily specials served with salad/soup and dessert. Pizza is quite awesome (I had Thon special).
Try Chiang Mai Noodles. Real spicy and great for Indian taste buds. If you can't stand spicy please avoid it.
Great Indian food! Which is fairly priced. Food is better and cheaper than any Swiss Indian restaurants.
Buy groceries and clothes from here. Cost effective than all Basel stores. Plus get your taxes back.
