Pere Lachaise Cemetery
cool and free

If you go to Paris stop by Pere Lachaise cemetery and say hi to Oscar Wilde, Bizet, Honoré de Balzac, Champollion, Maria Callas, Edith Piaff or Jim Morrison among other past personalities.

Beautiful Pere Lachaise cemetery is maybe one of the most remarcable and important cemeteries in the whole world with distinguised celebrities as residents.

Ask for a map at the cemetery entrance and reserve time for a long and pleasant stroll among decaying graves,monuments and vegetation.

Paris Catacombles
cool and fair

Arrete c'est ici le empire de la mort.

Paris's larger churches used to have their own cemeteries. City growth and generations of dead began to overwhelm them causing several diseases among the population.

In XVIII, improper burials and decomposing organic material made the authorities move all the remains to a section of Paris's subterranean quarries. Miles of deep and dark galeries under the city.

A labyrinth in Paris undergrounds piled with human bones. Not for the faint of heart.

Do you love steampunk? If your answer is yes, you should visit this peculiar subway station on Line 11, close to the Arts-et-Métiers Museum.

in 1994, this subway station was redesigned by Belgian comics artist François Schuiten inspired on the science fiction works of Jules Verne. When you're in the station, you'll feel like being inside the stomach of a giant mechanic whale... or the Nautilus.

Sleeping

Hotel Beaumarchais
cool and cheap

Nice hotel in Marais area. Small but cool rooms. Special internet booking rates.

Hotel Palmon Opera
cool and fair

I stayed in this hotel for 5 days in 2007 and it's ok. Nothing really fancy, but rather clean. It's expensive, but everything in Paris is, so that's why i tag it "fair".

Location is really, really handy. Within walking distance from Gare du Nord, Montmartre and Place de l'Opera. Bus number 46 passes by the same street and you appreciate that A LOT after a whole day walking.

They speak at least Spanish and English (besides French, of course).
