For your Paris vacation reserve a lastminute Paris accommodation in order to spend an unforgettable time in the city of light. During your Paris vacation you should visit the Catacombs and to do it you'll need to visit the Carnevalet Museum that organizes guided tours of underground Paris.
To discover this unique sight a guided tour is especially useful because there are many legends and stories that surround the picturesque catacombs of Paris. Among the most famous of these is the legend that says the catacombs are the home of Cibele, goddess of the earth.
Another curious tale is that of Philibert Aspairt who secretly made his way into the catacombs in order to get into a famous wine cellar. The man in question did not succeed but his body was discovered by some workers eleven years later and was identified by his keys. The unfortunate wine lover wandered the catacombs in vain and died in front of the cellar he was trying to reach.
