6. Sewers of Paris (Les Egouts de Paris)

Another of the underground haunts of Paris is the sewer system. Not the first thing tourists expect to visit when in the City of Love, Les Egouts de Paris offers visitors a one-hour tour of quite an educational and enlightening underside of the city. Located near the Eiffel Tower, the sewers are great for getting out of the hot sun and off of the crowded sidewalks.
