75019 Paris, France"It’s filled with dramatic flourishes, like a replica of a Roman temple and waterfalls in underground caves. There are also impressive daily Tai Chi sessions. I’ve no idea how you join in — whether you just walk up and start imitating them or you need a kind of letter of recommendation or something."

Jardin des Tuileries, 75001 Paris, France"There are certain galleries, where, no matter how much I like the work they show, I feel desperate to leave, the moment I go in. That’s the opposite of the case in Jeu de Paume, near the river in the Tuileries, where I could just browse the photography and media stuff they curate all day, every day."
