  • The best part of walking the street's of Paris, besides the sights of course, are all the street musicians whose music adds to the artistic nature of Paris. What many people don't know is that these musicians aren't just some hacks who showed up with their instrument. The city of Paris actually holds auditions for the right to play ones' music on the streets of Paris. So the musicians you see and hear on the streets have earned the right to play based on talent, so take the time to appreciate their music and throw a couple of euro's their way!
