The Louvre, although that will take up at least half your day.

Going up the bell tower in Notre Dame is decent. going to the top of the Eiffel Tower as well obviously. Coer de Lyon (?) is worth visiting as well but it's a bit outside the centre.

or you could just spend the day levelling up your wizard tower and telling her how great #emily is.

Go up the Eiffel Tower.
Come back down the Eiffel Tower.
Go for a boat trip on La Seine when it's dark and the tower's all lit up.
Avoid the dog poo on the pavements.
Visit the Musée d'Orsay.
Drink wine.
Eat cheese.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

EDIT - Notre Damme is well worth a visit too

He is right. It is cold

Took the missus there in Nov and she got sick and bed ridden + was on her rag week so it was a miserable experience all in all and ended up in a hotel room for the whole time looking at her corpse and watching french telly

+1 for d'orsay > louvre

sacre coeur isn't that far & monmartre is pretty.

you'd better get there early for the eiffel tower as you can queue for at least an hour. and the ladies' bogs are shit so tell your girlfriend to go beforehand.

visit the homeless tent city outside the pompidou centre

finally, lol domino

My advice is that if your mrs is going to freak out about heights half way, make her do it in the 2nd queue. Mine did it outside the lifts while 3000 frog bastards got in the queue in front of us.

if your going for just the day id say get a 1 day metro rail day ticket and a map of landmarks and just get off at the landmark stops.. would be the best you could do to squeeze as much as possible into a day.

Paris is shit though

The proper french restaurants are not too hot on vegetarianism as a concept but if you try to speak a little french they will always try to accommodate you. The french stereotype is not my experience at all (only once in a fast food place but i forgot to say s'il vous plait). Plus no one does a tasty salad like the french imo.

Go for the steak regardless!
