The Eiffel Tower, "Les Invalides" and the Parliament are the majors attracting monuments of this very chic, intellectual area which shelters all the political power of France.
The Eiffel Tower, the hundred-something-steel structure, has lost none of its charm. From its top 899 feet platform the breathtaking view extends forty-two miles. The Eiffel Tower still remains the symbol of Paris.
Nearby, the 7th Arrondissement is home to most French ministries and a good number of embassies. Napoleon's tomb is housed in the Invalides - a former military hospital created by the emperor.
The Rodin Museum , where you can contemplate statues as you relax in the gardens, is only a stone's throw from the golden dome of the Invalides. You'll discover here the very famous statues of Rodin and Camille Claudel such as "the Thinker", "the Danaïde" or "The Hell's doors".
At the end of the afternoon, you'll find in Le Bon Marché department store a convenient and chic shopping venue.
You'll find fashion shops everywhere on the sidewalks. All great designers are located in this area. The shop windows will attract you… It now only depends on your pocketbook!
Located in front of La Concorde Square, on the Seine's left bank, l'Assemblée Nationale (The Parliament) also called Palais Bourbon, dominates the Seine River with majesty.
Very close to Assemblée Nationale, the Orsay Museum gathers the master pieces of the 19th century's art. It's a real pleasure to walk around these beautiful exhibitions.
