Millions of visitors are drawn to Paris for the Summer Olympics, but there's more to explore in the City of Light than just the games. While the city offers endless attractions for a three-week stay, many visitors only have three days to experience its charm. Here are some must-see highlights and tips to make the most of your time in Paris, from art and fashion to nightlife and beyond.

You have to go to Paris once in your life, at least. Whether it's for the Olympic Games (July 26 to August 11) or just for a short trip. During this major sporting event the metropolis will be packed, some places will be cordoned off and the scaffolding of temporary venues may block the view. But for many, the Olympics are still an opportunity to finally see Paris. In this quick overview, you will find the most important museums and sights, selected addresses for shopping and eating – and the most beautiful parks for a break in between.
