Centre Pompidou
A modern exhibition center which initially polarised the locals, the Centre Pompidou is an über modern architectural masterpiece. Its colorful pipes and exposed beams stand out like a sore thumb in the otherwise classical Parisian streets. Inside, the halls house modern art treasures from the likes of Picasso, Dalí, and Matisse, and exciting temporary exhibits are always passing through. We recommend reserving a ticket online ahead of time to avoid waiting in line.
