  • Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Compared to other places in Europe buried in snow in this period of the year, we've been lucky during our stay in Paris.

    The weather was quite ok, the temperature was around 5-6 degrees above 0 and we had a light rain in two days, but nothing that could stopped us walking all day long.

    As I said before, Paris is not a small town and for sure the pair of comfortable shoes was my best friend.
    I haven't got a hat but when I climbed Tour Eiffel was windy and it would have been great having one.

    For a perfect journey in Paris in this period of the year it's mandatory to have: a pair of comfortable shoes, hat, umbrella, warm clothes, a small bag (for not having problems with the pickpockets in the metro or in other crowdy places), but also an elegant outfit for a nice night out.

     I have heard about the Hotel des Sens, and was wondering if it is necessary to pay any admission of any sort to visit the gardens, as I have heard they are lovely. Thanks for your help!

     Hi Diana! Your page is very interesting and the photos are excellent. Is a great performance to be on the fifth place, but your Paris page is a very good work. Gabriela
