▲ A pure white Roman-Byzantine style building, one of the symbols of Paris. Ascend to the top for a panoramic city view, while the interior's magnificent mosaic mural "Christ Pantocrator" dazzles with splendor. This area was once home to countless artists including Picasso and Van Gogh. Place du Tertre gathers painters, while street performers and cafés abound, exuding bohemian charm.

▲ Built for the 1900 World's Fair, this masterpiece of Belle Époque architecture features an exquisite indoor garden courtyard. Art Collection: Permanent exhibitions are free. The collection spans from ancient Greek and Roman artifacts to 19th-century French paintings, showcasing works by masters such as Rembrandt, Courbet, Monet, and Renoir, with a clear historical progression.

▲ Treasures of the Museum: Foucault Pendulum: Physicist Léon Foucault first publicly demonstrated the original pendulum here to prove Earth's rotation. Pascal's calculator, Lavoisier's laboratory instruments, early aircraft (such as Blériot's plane that crossed the English Channel), and automobile prototypes. Unique Experience: The museum is housed in the historic Saint-Martin-des-Champs Priory, where classical architecture creates a fascinating contrast with precision machinery. The Arts et Métiers subway station on Line 3 features an interior designed in steampunk submarine style, serving as an extension of the museum.

▲ The Musee d'Orsay, magnificently transformed from a railway station, is located along the Seine River. It houses over 5,000 modern and contemporary art treasures, including paintings, sculptures, and more. Masterpieces like Van Gogh's "Starry Night" and Monet's "Water Lilies" radiate unique charm under the natural light streaming through its glass dome.
