Know before you go
About France
April–May and September–October — mild weather, shorter museum queues and shoulder-season pricing; the Riviera stays pleasant nearly year-round, and March means the shortest lines at the Eiffel Tower and Louvre.
Eiffel Tower
Built in 1889 for the Exposition Universelle and now around 330 m tall with its antennas — take the lifts to the summit at sunset for the city turning gold.
The Louvre
The world's most-visited museum, entered through I. M. Pei's 1989 glass pyramid — the Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo top most lists, but the medieval fortress foundations below surprise everyone.
Palace of Versailles
Louis XIV's UNESCO-listed palace 20 km from Paris — its Hall of Mirrors runs 73 m with 357 mirrors, and the gardens' musical fountain shows run in season.
