Paris, the eternal city of love. There’s a lot going on in the Ville Lumiére all year long. Sure, we’re all hyped for the Maison et Objet 2018, but, like it or not, we’ll all have some extra few hours beyond the event. And what’s a better way to spend that time than strolling around the European cultural hotspot? Bearing such perspective in mind, Daily Design News will give you 10 reasons to love Paris besides the Maison et Objet. Pack your bags, it’s time to become culturally enriched.

As once said the 3rd American president, Thomas Jefferson, “A walk about Paris will provide lessons in history, beauty, and in the point of Life.” And he couldn’t be more on point. The French city ravishes us without a warning, overwhelming us with a sense of beauty, culture and philosophy like no other. The Eiffel tower is mandatory, but that’s not Paris in a nutshell. It would be wrong for us to presume it. There’s the food, the theatre, the art. Well, there’s Paris. It is actually very hard for us to plan a visit to Paris with such a short time-window in perspective, that perhaps we should stay a bit longer.

Whether you’re strolling up and down in the Champs Elysées, waiting in line for tickets at Moulin Rouge or sitting at a Michelin-starred restaurant, you have to savour every moment like there’s no other. The architecture, heavily influenced by Europe’s most important movements, such as the baroque, the gothic and the illuminism, is every architecture geek’s heaven. It is, after all, the hometown of some of the best creative geniuses in history, such as Voltaire, Honoré du Balzac, Victor Hugo, Jules Verne and Dumas. But, at the same time, it is also the resting point of several other important figures in history, such as Oscar Wilde, Edith Piáf, Jim Morrison and Chopin. It might seem a bit morbid, but if you have the chance, you must visit the Pére Lachaise Cemetery and pay homage to some of the world’s greatest geniuses.
