파리 여행준비..파리지앵처럼 즐기기.

CNN Travel 에서는 값 비싼 파리에서 어떻게 하면 적은 경비로 훌륭한 여행을 할 수 있을까? 답을 제공하고 있다.

PARIS, France (AP) -- Paris may be the most visited city in the world, yet it's also one of the most expensive.

Paris has an extensive system of rental bikes that you can help yourself to for just $1.50 a day all over town.

"This city is worth the price," says veteran tourist Alex Wadkin, 71, a retiree from Dublin, Ireland, sipping a $6 cup of coffee on the Champs-Elysees. "If you avoid expensive neighborhoods -- like this one -- you'll do alright. But the key is to plan ahead."

For travelers on a budget, the choices can be tough: stay in a far-flung suburb and eat a baguette for every meal, or leave happy but broke. Yet for those in the know, there are plenty of cheap -- and even free -- ways to enjoy the city.

Sights ; 괜히 에펠탑 올라가서 19달러나 쓰지 말고 파리지엔트 처럼 저녁에 소풍가는 기분으로 근처 잔디밭에 앉아 불빛나는 아름다운 타워를 즐기자. 그리고 몽마르트 언덕의 샤크레퀘르 성당 계단에 앉아 파리를 감상하자.

The Eiffel Tower may be impossible to miss for any self-respecting tourist, but it costs $19 to reach the top and long lines leave you exhausted by the time you reach the celebrated view.

Instead, do as the Parisians do: come in the evening, pack a picnic, and sit on the sprawling lawns surrounding it to watch the sunset and admire the tower alight at night, sparkling every hour for 10 minutes.

For a great view of Paris, just hike up to the top of Montmartre and sit on the Sacre-Coeur Basilica's steps overlooking the city.

Museums 뮤지움 패스가 그렇게 도움이 되지 않는다. 물론 여러개의 뮤지움에 간다면 사정은 달라지지만, 아래의 홈페이지에서 확인해보자. 매월 첫째 일요일에는 루브르를 비롯한 주요 뮤지움이 무료다.  사진에 관심있다면 룩셈부르크 가든 주변 게이트의 야외 전람회를 구경해 보고 또한 꼭 가든 안에 가서 파리지엔느처럼 한 번 여유있게 선탠도 하고 음악도 들으며 파리를 느껴보자.

Unless you plan on spending most of your time in museums -- which, granted, is possible among the dozens of great museums in Paris -- the museum passes (two, four or six days) may not save you much. Better compare prices first at http://www.parismuseumpass.com

Try to time your visit to include the first Sunday of the month, when the Louvre and all the major museums are free. And students, always have your ID card on you.

Don't discount a couple of smaller free museums. Le Musee Carnavalet has lots to offer: located in the gorgeous Marais neighborhood, it retraces Paris' rich history, from the Revolution to today. Meanwhile the Petit Palais, an architectural beauty in the heart of Paris, shows off collections from Paris in the 1900s all the way back to antiquity.

For photography fans, the gates surrounding the Luxembourg gardens host free open-air exhibits featuring stunning large-scale photography from around the world. And don't forget to go into the park, where Parisians hang out by the fountain, get a tan, and listen to free music on summer weekends.

Sounds 세계적인 오페라하우스에서 음악을 즐겨보자. 좀 일찍 예약하고 조금 불편한 좌석을 감수한다면 11달러에서 16달러 정도면 티켓을 구할 수 있다.

Paris boasts not one, but two, world-class opera houses. Good seating remains prohibitively expensive, but if you reserve early and don't mind craning your neck a bit, there are seats for $11 and $16. For the under-28 crowd, last-minute tickets -- sometimes for coveted seats -- can also reach low prices. These are sold 15 minutes before the start of the show. The Opera Bastille reserves 62 standing-room tickets at $8, on sale as soon as doors open, generally 90 minutes before starting time.

And for a musical Notre Dame, drop in on Sunday afternoon starting at 4:30 p.m., when free organ concerts bring out the cathedral's sacred atmosphere.

Wandering 1년전 파리는 자전거랜탈프로그램을 선 보였는데, 신용카드로만 겨우 1.50 달러에 시내를 돌아볼 수 있다. 다만 헬멧이 없으니까 조심해야 한다. 또는 버스 24번이나 30번을 타면 유명관광지를 경유할 수 있다. 그리고 세느강을 봐야죠? Batobus 는 19달러인데 다른 것과는 달리 hop on and off 버스처럼 하루 종일 이용할 수 있다.

The cheapest and most satisfying way to see the city is on your own. A year ago, Paris debuted an extensive system of rental bikes that you can help yourself to for just $1.50, credit card only, a day at numerous spots all over town.

Velib', as they are called, are a great way to wander around the city independently. However Paris traffic can get pretty hairy, and the bikes don't come with helmets, so stay alert.

If cycling isn't your thing, hop on a bus and see where it goes. Weekly passes, which also work on the metro, are well worth investing in. Some scenic bus lines include numbers 24 (goes by the Seine, the Louvre, Notre Dame, several bridges, the Eiffel Tower, the Champs-Elysees) and 30 (the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, the Champs-Elysees, the Moulin Rouge, Sacre Coeur).

And there is always the Seine River. Try the Batobus -- it's $19, but unlike other flyboats its tickets are good for a whole day, and you can hop on and off with ease at eight top sightseeing spots.

Food 유명관광지를 벗어나면 저렴한 음식을 즐길 수 있다. Avenue de Menilmontant,  Avenue de la Villette 사이에 위치한 Belleville 시장에서 화요일과 금요일에 가면 저렴하게 음식을 즐길 수 있다. 전형적인 프랑스 음식을 찾는다면, 비싼 레스토랑 갈 것도 없다. Le Bouillon Chartier (7 rue du Faubourg Montmartre, metro Grands Boulevards 에 가면 멋진 실내장식과 음식을 저렴한 가격으로 즐길 수 있다.

Food and drink are tricky to budget for in cuisine capital Paris, but if you stray away from touristy streets, there are cheap eats to be had.

For typically French food, no need to go to expensive restaurants, either. Try Le Bouillon Chartier (7 rue du Faubourg Montmartre, metro Grands Boulevards), not just for its stunning art deco interior but for its simple, affordable fare. Or pick up a traditional French picnic at La Cantine de Quentin (52 rue Bichat, metro Goncourt), and walk over to the lovely Saint Martin Canal.

Try street food in the atmospheric Latin Quarter, or fixed-price lunch menus, cheaper than their dinnertime counterparts.

For gourmet ice cream with a view, try Berthillon, at the tip of the Ile Saint Louis, a little island in the middle of the Seine.

Or peruse Paris' traditional outdoor markets. One of the best and least expensive is the Belleville market, between Avenue de Menilmontant and Avenue de la Villette, on Tuesdays and Fridays.

Rooms 한편 파리 전역에 무선인터넷 스팟이 있다. http://www.wifi.paris.fr 에서 체크해 보자. 또한 저렴한 숙소를 원한다면 Craigslist 또는 http://www.bed-and-breakfast-in-paris.com. 를 살펴 보자.

If you're staying for a week or even just a few days, short-term rentals found on Craigslist can be a lot cheaper than hotels. For an intermediary and a bit more peace of mind, the one-woman company Alcove & Agaves will set you up in lovely Parisian homes

If you can afford to, avoid budget hotels or rentals in the suburbs of Paris, as you'll waste too much time on transportation. Lastly, if you find a place so cheap it doesn't come with an Internet connection, take heart: there are free Wi-Fi spots all over Paris, including in many public parks - check out http://www.wifi.paris.fr
