One of my favourite views of Notre Dame is from the rear so you can see all the flying buttresses.

Walking around the streets is one of the best things to do on Paris breaks, and you never know what you might find.

This picture shows a typical old building with a narrow end where two roads intersect sharply. That because Paris isn't built on a boring square grid system like some other cities I won't mention. Let's just say that Paris breaks beat transatlantic flights any day.
