An astonishing spot that seemed quite devoid of other tourists considering how much there is to see! This reserve is a UNESCO site and contains all sorts of fascinating architecture, little museums and great places to go for a stroll to work off that lunch!

A great collection spread over a couple of locations, we did them all on one day which was a bit hectic to be honest, but the cheapest way to do it. Gallery of European and American Art of the 19th and 20th Centuries was the highlight as I loved the impressionists.

With the Pergamon Museum, Altes Museum, Alte Nationalgalerie, the Neues Museum and the Bode Museum you'll be spoilt for choice so I recommend you spend a couple of days here seeing the sights!

Looking suspiciously like a red Eiffel Tower (in fact they put a spike on top to make it taller than its cousin) the views from here are pretty ace. And whilst you're there you can also hit the Wax Museum and the Optical Illusion place, which are fun.

I was only in Paris for a fleeting visit so I went to hang around the Louvre but was too late to really get any use out of going in, and explored the gardens instead. What a lovely place to spend a couple of hours!
