Things to do in Paris, no research required

The problem with Paris was never finding things to do. It’s that every list you open has the same nine landmarks and four hundred comments arguing about them. This map is the shortlist. Musée d’Orsay carries the most weight here, and Pont Alexandre III is the landmark to shoot if you want something that isn’t the Eiffel Tower in every frame. Happy Café has the brunch queue to prove its point, and CopperBay is where to drink well without paying the tourist markup for the privilege. Restaurants, cafes and bars are all mapped deep, so eating well stops being luck and starts being a decision you already made.
