Those planning on taking a break abroad and checking out the youth hostels in Paris could be spoilt for choice over what to see and do in the capital of romance.
From world-famous shopping, to great museums and tourist hot spots, the city is perfect for any type of traveller and holiday - and with so much cheap accommodation on offer, visitors will find they have plenty of cash left over to spend on sightseeing and exploring the French capital.
As well as attracting people with its classy and elegant style, varied culture and chic appearance, Paris is also a good spot to head for those who enjoy sport, as throughout the year it hosts a number of well-known sporting events.
Visitors feeling sporty and fit should definitely head to the world-famous Eiffel Tower, an impressive iron structure built back in the 19th century. Energetic tourists can climb to the top but those feeling like relaxing on their French break can take the lift.
As well as the tower, Paris visitors should take time out of their trip to spend at least a day wandering around the incredible Louvre museum - check out the Mona Lisa, the Venus de Milo statue and a brilliant collection of Egyptian artifacts, including a huge array of real-life mummies.
A visit to the Notre Dame cathedral to gaze up at its famous stained glass windows should also be high on the list for any Paris visitor. The cathedral is right on the river and after spending an hour or two walking around its impressive interior, Paris visitors can check out the many bridges which cross the River Seine, some of which are decadently painted and attractions in themselves.
For the sports fans, a trip to stay in a youth hostel in Paris could be best taken in May or June, as it is at this time of year that the city hosts the French Open. The 2010 event is due to begin on May 24th and will run all through June.
Spectators at the open may be able to catch a glimpse of top-class players including Andy Murray, Rafael Nadal and defending champion Roger Federer.
