Sightseeing in Paris is everywhere. Most of the people that stay less than four days usually say that they didn’t have time to see anything! The best Paris shopping districts are the Champs Elysees -which is also where you will find all the huge luxury shops-, the Seine river banks (what about going on one of those famous “bateau mouche”?, the left bank districts, le Marais and of course Montmartre, the city in the city where everything is so francais there.
