A weekend in Paris

Paris, France

Three days, Friday to Sunday. Open to every standing.

Three days across the Left Bank and the Tuileries: slow mornings in Saint-Germain, the Louvre’s Denon wing on its Friday late opening, a concert at the Philharmonie on Saturday and a long lunch on Sunday.

While Notturno is by invitation, a code from the house is asked for when you confirm. No invitation yet? Request one.

Why it is rare

After the crowds

Nothing on this weekend asks for a queue.

The Louvre after the day crowds have gone, the Orsay’s fifth floor before they arrive, and a Sunday with nothing planned but lunch.
