Paris - Marvelous City on the Seine River in France

Walking Tour of Paris from Notre Dame to the Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triomphe

From Linda Garrison, About.com

Paris is on everyone's list of favorite cities in the world. It has beautiful architecture, amazing art museums, and fascinating sights around every corner.

If you love cruising and want to see Paris, you have two options. First, Seine River cruises often embark from Paris and sail to the Normandy coast. Another way to include Paris on your European cruise vacation is to plan your flights so that you include a stopover in Paris. Since most flights from Paris to North America leave in the morning or early afternoon, you may have to spend the night, but there's much you can see in Paris in just one day. These pictures of Paris were taken when we missed a connection and had just a few hours to walk around the city. Here's a taste of Paris--I hope it leaves you wanting more!
