What to do in Paris – Gare Montparnasse

Built in 1840, Gare de Montparnasse survived to many a war and has been the scenario of important historical moments. Now, however, it has been thoroughly renovated and has become one of the most important gateways of the Parisian transportation system (it is also the end of the TGV Atlantique line). The station is somehow hidden within a modern and complex facility which also includes the Montparnasse tower. And it is exactly here that we suggest going as you leave the station. The Tour Montparnasse is a 210­meter­tall skyscraper and it hosts, among the many shops, the legendary Lafayette shops. There is also a restaurant at the fifty­sixth floor with a spectacular view over the city, quite the gourmet place for gazing at the Eiffel Tower while eating some exquisite French delicacies. In addition, with your hire car it will be quite easy to reach the typical quarters of Belleville and Montmartre. You will feel like you are the actor of a movie in Paris!
