    Do you want general Paris recommendations or only ones related to Christmas?

    I think you want to do all of the great things you can do in Paris at any time of the year!

    But, given that it will be cold, there is also plenty of time steal away for some sweets indoors... I would recommend doing tea at Mariage Freres in the Marais (rue du bourg-tibourg), coffee and macarons at Laduree on the Champs Elysees, and a trip to Angelina on rue de rivoli for their delectable chocolat chaud. But maybe not all in the same day!

    There's also great shopping at Le Bon Marche on the left bank, and Galeries Lafayette and Printemps on the right bank.

    Finally, if you like to ice skate, there's seasonal skating at the Hotel de Ville.

    I spent my Christmas last year in Belgium, Paris and Amsterdam. Had a fabulous time. If you get time, I'd take a train into Belgium and spend some time there. It is awesome there.

    I dined in the Eiffel Tower restaurant

    I walked the Champs d Elysees from start to finish and ended at the Arc de Triomphe

    The Basilique du Sacré Coeur was beautiful

    The Louvre

    Have a wonderful time.

    It'll be cold! What are you into? Paris is a huge city - what things are you interested in?
