Musée des arts et Métiers invited our class to visit their building in the north where they store and repair their collection of fascinating things. We took a tour of the warehouse, and I was amazed by the endless rows of shelves packed with unique objects.

The museum itself is just as interesting, but it was great to see behind the scenes. As a product designer this visit was a dream.

Grande Halle De La Vilette  had a great installation by artist Ryoji Ikeda and William Forsythe. Ikeda's was an immersive installation of sound and light projected onto a platform. Watching people move through it was just as interesting as being in the middle of it. La Vilette in general is a nice park that holds a variety of events. A lot of good stuff to see here in general.
Notre-Dame de Paris The famed cathedral in the center of the city. I passed by it fairly often but never went inside until my parents came to visit. Even more beautiful from the inside!
Cimetière du Père Lachaise  A huge cemetery where you can see the graves of notable figures including Jim Morrison. I spent a pleasant afternoon exploring with friends. The trees and foliage make parts of the cemetery feel like an escape from the city.
