    Default Paris

    So I'll be visiting Paris the first week of February. I promised it to my girl and we'll be there for three days. Now the thing is I've been in Paris for like 4 or 5 times and I've seen all the usual things already. Of course I'll be doing some of those again as my girl hasn't been to Paris yet. But spending three days seeing things I've already seen is a bit much too. So does anyone know lesser known things to visit or do while in Paris that isn't too expensive (as we're both just students).

    Just enjoy the city itself, no Eifel tower beats listening to the traffic from your cheap hotel-room. Planning anything always sucks the life out of everything, it's fun enough to just be there

    I was too young to remember anything from when I went, so I can't make a suggestion. Although I do agree with Frags, a place like Paris has enough going on for it to be nice to just go for a walk and discover something unexpected.

    And hold that everything depends upon having the “right” religion.

    Oh I forgot, do visit the Musee de Quai Branly, a few minutes from that ugly WAY too high Eifeltower. The building itself is worth it, but they also have a spectacular collection of primitive arts, you have to beat me out with a stick before closing time.

    Just don’t get mugged!
