About Paris

France's capital is dense and walkable, and the metro and RER handle the rest, so days rarely need a taxi. Permanent collections at many city-run museums are free, several national museums are free on set days, and the parks, riverside and church exteriors cost nothing; the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower are ticketed. Spring and autumn are mild, summer is peak, winter is quiet and damp.
