Visit out-of-the-way museums, especially the Gobelins tapestry factory (gorgeous works of art, antique and modern). Also: the Musee Marmottan (though I got the iciest stare there, I don't know why), the Musee Cluny (for the Unicorn Tapestries), the Musee Carnavalet (for the wit & wisdom of Mme de Sevigne), the Rodin Museum, the moving Holocaust memorial behind Notre Dame. See the old Paris: the Arenes de Lutece. See the new Paris: la Mosquee. See a bit of America, thanks to Bartholdi: the smaller Statue of Liberty visible from the bateau mouche. Also, though it is very much on the beaten path, take a side trip to Versailles. Every American I ever met in Europe compared their favorite palace (Schonbrunn, Nymphenburg) and said theirs was 'better than Versailles.' That's because Versailles was first! Don't be fooled by imitators--see where the decadence got started...

Arrondissement 7 - Palais-Bourbon
This upscale arrondissement has major landmarks.
The most famous of these landmarks is the Eiffel Tower.
Other important tourist draws are the Invalides - with its museums and Napoleon's tomb - and two more museums: the Musee d'Orsay and the Rodin Museum. The Palais Bourbon (National Assembly), Ecole Militaire (Military School) and the UNESCO headquarters can also be found in the 7th arrondissement.

If you love art, Paris must be like heaven for you. Le Louvre, Centre Pompidou, Musee D'Orsay, Musée Rodin and so much more... i guess besides New York City here are the best, most extensive art exhibitions and museums in the world. This pic I took from the top of the Centre Pompidou.
Fontaine des Innocents
by penumbra
Always a busy little area, this fountain just south from the entrance to Forum des Halles is a great place to take a break and do some people watching or to setup a meeting location. The fountain was created in 1549 and moved to its current location in 1788. All four sides have different sculpture.
