Parisians are divided by an eternal debate. No, not the one about chocolate/chocolate bread, a more territorial subject: which bank of Paris is better? Left or right bank? North or South? It's a question that keeps Parisians talking, but doesn't necessarily have a definitive answer.
Each side of the Seine has its own treasures, history, advantages and good addresses. The Left Bank is home to the historic Latin Quarter, with the Panthéon, the Sorbonne and the Palais du Luxembourg, as well as the French National Library, the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, the Jardin des Plantes and Les Invalides... Not forgetting the one and only Eiffel Tower, the absolute icon of Paris. With so much to offer, the Left Bank seems to be the best side of the capital.
And the local museums are no exception. In addition to these numerous monuments, the south of Paris is also home to several of the City of Light's major museums and art galleries. Places of culture that frequently organize new exhibitions, to be visited without moderation.
Planning a trip to the Left Bank soon? Take a look at the exhibition program for the next few days.
