Weird & Wonderful Paris

Paris is one of those cities that’s brimming with classic tourist sights and activities - from the Eiffel Tower to the Cathedral of Notre Dame, from a Seine boat tour to a walking tour of the Montparnasse neighborhood. But when you’ve checked off your must-see attractions from your list, you may find yourself feeling unfulfilled. After all, every other visitor in Paris has the same to-do list, so your vacation photos will risk looking like everyone else’s vacation in Paris - unless you take measures to keep that from happening. What can you do? Well, for starters, you can check out one or more of these stops on a tour of weird and wonderful Paris!

Paris Dog Cemetery - Just outside Paris, this is believed to be the world’s first pet cemetery & is home to more than 40,000 pet graves.
