The French capital is home to arguably most famous painting in the world and, with so many cheap flights to Paris available from Jet2.com, there’s no better time to see the Mona Lisa by Leonardo Da Vinci at the Louvre in the New Year. There is also a major exhibition of the painter Raphael until January 14th.
Moving into February, Paris is a city for lovers and a memorable Valentine’s Day can be spent strolling along the Seine and dining in many of the city’s gourmet restaurants. It’s very common to see Parisian couples smiling like the Mona Lisa and whispering ‘Je t’aime’!
For the fashion conscious, some en vogue trends for 2013 are pencil skirts, leggings and colour clashing but, to see the most elegant and latest fashion, the Paris fashion shows are unbeatable. Cheap flights to Paris with Jet2.com allow trendsetters to visit the city not once but several times this spring and summer, to see the latest clothes designed by the likes of Stella McCartney, Karl Lagerfeld, Chloe and Kenzo.
Of course, some of the most amazing experiences in Paris are available all year round. Many people like to visit the Sacred Heart Basilica of Montmartre, from which they get great views of the city and view impressionist paintings on the left bank in the Musee d’Orsay. To truly enjoy the architecture of Paris, visitors ought to take a boat trip down the Seine and perhaps visit the Eiffel Tower in the evening. It is also easy to find wine-tasting events for tourists and a fine wine can always be enjoyed at a reasonable price before the flight home.
