14 Off-the-Beaten-Path Things to See in Paris (Updated 2025)

"Visiting the Hôtel de Soubise, which was built by order of Napoleon I, I was struck by the late Baroque architecture, long columns, statues and sculptures and immaculate grounds and gardens; inside the National Archives are thousands of historical documents dating back to 625 CE, and the permanent and temporary exhibitions consistently provide nuanced historical detail and context." - Matthew Kepnes
