Valentine's Day in Paris?
Paris is one of the most romantic cities in the world. Walks by the Seine, intimate dinners in small bistros, the city even displays messages of love on billboards and signs! Planning to spend Valentines Day in Paris with your loved one? Here is a quick overview about the romantic city:Paris as a whole is divided into 20 municipal sections called arrondissements, each with its own character and attractions. But the thread that connects it all is the Seine, the river that divides the city into the Rive Droite (Right Bank) to the north (with such draws as the Champs-Elysées, the Louvre, Montmartre, and the Marais) and the Rive Gauche (Left Bank) to the south (home to the Latin Quarter and St-Germain, among others). Both sides are connected by some 30 picturesque pedestrian and vehicular bridges, while between the shores are two small isles that double as Paris' heart and historical birthplace – the Ile de la Cité, also the site of the Notre-Dame Cathedral, and the Ile St-Louis, with its romantic, medieval mazelike streets and antiquated mansions.
The best way to discover Paris is à pied (on foot), with a good map in hand – definitely consider investing in a good pocket plan of the city by arrondissement to navigate the city with ease. For longer jaunts, or if you're in a hurry, the Métro is a remarkably efficient and modern subway system; there is additionally a vast network of bus routes, should you prefer to stay aboveground, as well as taxis for hire at designated stands.
