Paris Breaks to the 1st
The 1st Arrondissment is well known but sometimes overlooked on Paris Breaks. Do you head straight for the Latin Quarter or Montmartre? At some point you’ll be passing through the centre of Paris and this is what you can find there:
Paris 1st Arrondissement - Musée du Louvre, Les Halles
The Louvre was once a royal residence, and is a big attraction in the 1st arrondissement. Next to the Louvre is the Jardin des Tuileries, Paris’s most formal garden park, which was originally laid out by Le Nôtre, gardener to Louis XIV. Place Vendôme, also in the area is the opulent location for the Ritz Hotel. Les Halles and the Forum des Halles is a huge shopping mall, though done with Parisian style.
