See our Paris Map for the location of the top ten sights listed below.

Louvre central plaza, Paris, France

1. Louvre Museum, one of the world's three best museums.

To avoid lining up for ages for almost all Paris attractions, tourists need to do just two things:
a) buy a Museum Pass online, at a tourist office or at some museum that has short lines such as Ste-Chapelle, between the Louvre and Notre Dame.
b) arrive as close as possible to opening time, usually at 9am.

2. Notre Dame Cathedral, magnificent interior sights and exterior views.

Paris weather:
Best: April-July, September, October, with average highs of 15C-25C (59F-77F) and lows of 7C-14C (44F-57F) but rapidly changeable conditions. Christmas is luminous with romance and decorative lights and January hot for bargains in the sales. More.

4. Champs-Elysées and the Arc de Triomphe. Avenue des Champs Elysées is the central boulevard in the photo. Twelve busy roads converge around the Arc without any form of control! It's madness, but it works. Only in France!
