Travel destinations: Paris!!!!?

im a student, and for my french class i need to make a travel plan ofr a make believe trip to paris. we're not allowed to use "touristy" places, ei the Effiel tower. can anyone help me?

So you're looking for places that aren't that well known right?

How about these:

1. Many people miss the Cluny Museum. Its rather small and housed in the former home of an Abbot. It contains the famous Lady and the Unicorn Tapestries and a small collection of various objects from the very early history of Paris thru the medieval era. Beneath the museum they discoverd an old Roman bath which has been excavated and may be visited. The museum is at 6 place Paul Painlevé in the 5th arr.just a minutes walk from the Seine south on the Blvd. St. Michel.

2. After you've been there walk south on the blvd. St. Michel. A part of the foundation of the wall that enclosed the Roman forum may be seen in the stairway of the underground parking lot at number 61 Boulevard Saint-Michel.

3. Then walk east along the rue Souflott to the rue St. Jacques. Its just an ordinary Parisian street these days but its interesting to note that when Paris was the Roman city of Lutetia this was the cardo maximus (the main north-south road).

4. At the Place de la Sorbonne excavations revealed several Roman occupation layers. A Gallo-Roman well that is thought to be a vestige of one or more early Roman houses has been preserved in the centre of the square.

5. Finally, there is the Cimetiere de Picpus. This is the burial place of the Marquis de Lafayette which can be found at 35, rue de Picpus. The only way into the cemetary is through an unmarked door in a larger, perpetually-closed gateway. You have to ring the doorbell and turn to the right after you pass through the door and find the entry 'official' who takes your entry fee.

An American flag flies over his grave and did so even during the Nazi occupation of Paris.

hmmm does a cemetary count?? La pere lechaise is great and has many famous people buried there eg Edith Piaf, Oscar Wilde, Chopin, Jim Morrison ( the Doors). The rest of it is amamzing to see the most elaborate statues, stained glass in hmmm trying to think of what to call them, not tombs, but they are all above ground....its pretty large too.

Montmartre area has on of the original windmills on a back street behind sacre Coeur you should be able to find some info on it ...
In St Denis which is out of Paris centre the Basilique St-Denis is the royal mausoleum... it is the birth place of Gothic architecture. It is also the resting place for most the French kings. Not many tourist know of this place... you can take the bus from the Grand Arch which is another interesting area..
My sister teaches a french class in Iowa... and is doing a similiar project is that where you are??? it would be weird if you were in her class...lol

Hi, I agree with the answers above,
My question : Why to ask a lot of questions, you are waiting for "answers" which can be found in a touristic guide, it is the start of the travel, to prepare, there are a lot of questions with to much improvisation. Paris is a very touristic City, with many attractions, everybody can find what he wants, out the touristy places, my advice : read a very documented book, its most right, Welcome !
