It may seem that I have written quite extensively about Parisian tourist attractions, but the fact is, there are many I have missed. It may shock some travellers who are familiar with Paris that I left hot spots like the Palais de Versailles and Musée Picasso off my must-see lists.
I could have written about every single tourist attraction in Paris. But I chose not to. (The list would have become impossibly long, anyway.) The sites I wrote about are the ones I that I found to be awe-inspiring on my own visits. And the few that left me bitterly disappointed. I have mixed feelings about certain attractions, and chose to leave those out to avoid confusion. I don't necessarily recommend the Palais de Versailles as a tourist attraction, but I know that many people love it. Similarly, I am not a big fan of Picasso, so an entire museum devoted to his work was a bit much for me. But just because I don't love something doesn't mean others won't.
Paris is full of amazing things that are just waiting to be discovered. As a traveller, it's up to you to find things that you will love. I just hope that I've nudged some of you in the right directions.
