    One of the things that I liked the most in Paris is the fact that you can admire wonderful views of the town from different high points (Tour Eiffel, Tour Montparnasse, Notre-Dame's towers or Sacre-Coeur).

    Here is one from the 5th floor of Centre Georges Pompidou, from the entrance to the exhibition.

    Well, this is not a true 'off the beaten path' tip, because the Stravinsky Fountain is found just beside one of the more famous sights in Paris...Centre Pompidou. But this fountain is worth a look and wirth a few photos! It's a nice place to sit down and relax after having walked around in the crowded streets, and a nice place to enjoy the view of the controverisal Pompidou-building.

    Georges Pompidou Center. This extravagant-looking center is an interesting sight for itself, since it has all the pipes & installations & infrastructure mounted on the outside of the building, painted in different colors for the ease of maintnance and of course to catch your eye. Besides being fun to watch, Pompidou Center is also a major cultural center in Paris and is usually ful of artists, who give it Montmartre-like atmosphere. When we were there, the center was closed down for renovation, however, so nothing much was happening. What a pitty.

    Centre Georges Pompidou: The Magic Clock

    Le Defenseur du Temps
    by Alexandra33
    It is curious because if you ask someone whre you can find the "Le Defenseur du Temps" clock, be prepared to people get suspicious and make a surprise expression :)
    Worst was, that when got there (by ourselves map orientation), the clock was disable so it wasn't possible to watch the battle between the men and the dragoon, the crab and the cock. Wich simbolises the battle with air, sea and earth ...

    Centre Georges Pompidou: watching interesting performances

    In front of the Georges Pompidou library, you can look the performances that different people make. We saw three or four, with several quality degrees, but almost always friendly.
    Al davant de la llibreria Georges Pompidou, podeu mirar les diferents actuacions que els artistes fan. Nosaltres en vam veure tres o quatre, amb iferents graus de qualitat, però gairebé sempre simpàtiques.

    This time I was really disapointed when visited again the Stravinsky fountain (near Pompidou). There was no water in the "lake" and the fountains were also dry. It simple lost the enchantment and Parisiens should ask what that "commune mayor" has been doing there.
