"Five Things You Must See in Paris" by Kelley

There are so many things and sites to see when you are in Paris, but so little time to see them all. The Eiffel Tower, The Louvre, Notre Dame, and the Seine River are just a few of the most popular places for tourists to visit while in Paris. 

      #1 The Eiffel Tower is huge and it is 1,063 feet tall. There are usually huge lines to go up to the top of the tower. You also have to pay to go up the tower. IT costs even more money to go to the very top of the tower, but it is worth it. 


#2 The Louvre is a giant museum with many paintings and sculptures. Probably the most famous is The Mona Lisa. There is a completely different room where they have the Mona Lisa hung up a wall behind glass. There are security guards that try to push you away after you have taken your picture to let others take their pictures. The room is insanely packed with people and it’s hard to get a good picture.



           #3  Notre Dame is a huge church and is really pretty. It has beautiful architecture on the inside and outside. You can also climb up to the very top and look out off the roof.



          #4  The Seine River is a huge river and it flows right between the Eiffel Tower and The Louvre museum. You can also take boat tours throughout the day. It is a lot of fun.



             #5  The Palace of Versailles is a beautiful palace, but you have to travel outside the city to see it. It has a gold iron gate and the Hall of Mirrors is absolutely beautiful.
