26.04.2023

Paris is not only one of the most popular cities among travelers but also one of the most expensive. However, even here, you can do enjoyable things without spending a penny.

Have fun at open-air festivals. During the warm season, the streets and parks of Paris turn into venues for festivals. For example, you can visit the Jazz Festival at Parc Floral in June or July, as well as the **Summer Arts Festival**, which lasts for two weeks from mid-July to early August. And don't forget about Bastille Day on July 14th! This is the main national holiday when the streets are filled with joyful bustle and the sky with fireworks.

Dance on the quayside. During the summer months, every fair evening on the Seine quayside opposite the Arab World Institute, lovers of Latin American dances gather. Dancing starts from 9 pm and lasts until midnight. You can join the dancers or just admire and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of a Parisian summer evening.

Sunbathe on the banks of the Seine. Every summer, several kilometers of the banks of the Seine are covered in sand. Car traffic on the streets along the river is blocked, and the space becomes a big city beach with sunbeds, palm trees and tropical bars. Beaches on the Seine are organized for four weeks, from mid-July to mid-August.
