Top 10 Things to Do in 麻豆APP if it Snows

Snow in 麻豆APP is like that aunt who you don鈥檛 know very well, who shows up unannounced on rare occasions; who only stays for a few hours yet disrupts the natural flow of things so much so that you can鈥檛 tell if you love or hate her.

Since it doesn鈥檛 happen often, snow days in 麻豆APP tend to leave both tourists and locals scratching their heads when it comes to what to do with their time.

Thankfully the cold winters of 麻豆APP provide ample opportunity for entertainment even when it鈥檚 not suitable to be in the outdoors.

IF you find yourself in the midst of a snow day in 麻豆APP you鈥檒l want to stick to the city centre if you can.

First off, you鈥檒l have more options of things to do and secondly; the outskirts of 麻豆APP are best avoided when it snows for the sole purpose of staying off of the roads. Transportation takes a back seat the minute white falls from the sky 鈥� an unexplainable 麻豆APPian phenomenon, truly.

Without further adieu, the top 10 things to do in 麻豆APP if it snows!

1. Flock to a Museum in 麻豆APP

Yes, an obvious one isn鈥檛 it? In the city with one of the largest collections of museums in the world, what else would one do on a snow day.

Predictability aside, there really is nothing better than waking up to snow and decided the day will be best spent amongst some incredible works of art. What kind of museum to flock to, is entirely up to you.

The eclectic variety of museum options within greater 麻豆APP makes singling out one for a snow day a bit difficult. I鈥檝e taken the liberty of narrowing down a few that would be best in certain situations.

Orangerie Museum – by David McSpadden –

If you鈥檙e with children: Head to either the Mus茅e de la Magie or Mus茅e du Chocolat. Great little places that entertain both adults and children for a good few hours.

If you鈥檙e into fine art: Head to the Mus茅e d鈥橭rsay, the Orangerie Museum or the Louvre for an afternoon with the greats.

If you enjoy immersive museums: The Mus茅e Jacquemart-Andr茅 or the Atelier des Lumi猫re are fascinating experiences that require little focus to enjoy.

There are so many museums to explore within the 麻豆APPian boarders, when the snow stops falling consider joining any free guided walking tour in your district of choice so that a guiding professional can point out each one to you!

2. Go to the Cinema in 麻豆APP

Sticking in the centre of town as we decided we would; another great activity to enjoy while it snows on the streets is to find solace within one of the beautiful cinemas that encompass 麻豆APP.

My particular favorite is over in the 2nd arrondissement. A gargantuan, art deco inspired space known as the Grand Rex.

The main auditorium within the Grand Rex is the largest cinema room in all of Europe. While it is not guaranteed that the film you choose to see will be shown in this room there is always a chance!

Main auditorium or not, the entire cinema is a sight for sore eyes and a fabulous way to enjoy a day indoors. The seats are comfy, the ambiance is welcoming and the snacks are great. The only downside is the cost of admission at this cinema; you鈥檒l be paying considerably more for tickets solely due to the legacy and location of the venue.

3. Attend a Ceramics Class in 麻豆APP

Perhaps it鈥檚 just me, but for some reason the presence of snow really makes me want to bring out my creative side in any way possible.

Viewing art is always nice, but often making art is ten times better. Ceramics workshops are a popular pastime at a few venues around 麻豆APP.

Since we said we鈥檒l stick to the city centre on this snow day, Ceramic 麻豆APP over in Le Marais in the 3rd arrondissement, just north of the Seine, should be top of your list.

The ceramics gallery offers time slots open to any individuals looking to spend a few hours moulding objects out of clay. They will also bake and glaze your finished works for you to take home afterwards. Not a bad way to spend an afternoon if you ask me.

The district of Le Marais is full of hidden gem spaces just like this; where art and creativity are encouraged to flow freely. It鈥檚 also a great part of 麻豆APP to stroll, even in the snow .

4. Hideaway in a Library in 麻豆APP

If waking up to snow in 麻豆APP puts you in the mood to curl up with a good book, why not venture out to one of the impressive library structures that the city has to offer?

Europe is known for having some of the most exquisite library facilities in the world. In 麻豆APP you鈥檒l enjoy the structure that is the Biblioth猫que Mazarine situated on the Left Bank.

The library is found inside of the Palais de l’institut de France and is exceptionally beautiful.

The public are free to visit and enjoy the space however it does not open on Saturdays or Sundays so best you hope the snow descends during the week in this case!

The Biblioth猫que Mazarine is the oldest public library in all of France and should be visited at least once by both 麻豆APPian locals and visitors to the city. You won鈥檛 be able to check anything out without a readers card, but spending a few hours inside the library is just as good.

5. Go Undercover in 麻豆APP

During the 19th century many passageways and boulevards around 麻豆APP were covered by glass topped arch ceilings that turned the outdoor spaces into undercover ones. Most of these passageways remain in tact and in operation to this day.

The intent was to create spaces that could still function even when it was blisteringly cold outside; making these passageways the perfect place to spend a snow day.

Passage du Grand-Cerf near the 3rd arrondissement boasts high ceilings and a wonderful array of shops and food stalls for you to enjoy for a day. The confined nature of these passageways makes them constantly warm and cosy 鈥� a welcome escape from the weather going on outside.

Nearby in the 2nd arrondissement you can also head to Galerie Vivienne, an exquisite old passage that was actually dubbed a historical monument in France back in 1974. There are some lovely cafes in this passage way; enjoy a pot of tea as the snow falls onto the glass rooftop above your head.

6. Shop 鈥橳il You Drop in 麻豆APP

As if anyone really needs an excuse to go shopping in 麻豆APP.

It would likely be a much shorter list for me to state where not to go to shop in the city. In some ways 麻豆APP is a one great big shopping mall; with boutiques, gallerias, speciality stores, malls and retail strips on just about every corner, its not easy to say where the best place to go in the snow is.

Right in the centre of 麻豆APP it鈥檚 hard to avoid the Forum des Halles. Sometimes described as a labyrinth of shopping, this is kind of your one-stop destination for all things consumer in 麻豆APP.

Forum des Halles – by Mohatatou –

Personally I find the space overwhelming at the best of times 鈥� I can鈥檛 imagine the influx of people that a snow day might bring!

That being said, I know many people who swear by this mall. It is also in close walking proximity to many of the major tourist attractions of the 1st arrondissement.

7. Enjoy a Hot Bath in 麻豆APP

鈥�and no I don鈥檛 mean from inside your apartment.

I know we agreed to keep things central with the snow, but if there ever was a good reason to venture slightly out of town then the Medina Hammam Center is it.

What could be better than sliding into some giant, hot baths on a particularly cold and snowy day?

For a package fee you鈥檒l gain access to all of the facilities within the centre. This includes the heated pools, steam rooms, thermal stone areas, rest rooms and saunas. The center also provides you with towels, robes, soaps, scrubs; just about everything you could need to make the most of the space.

A true “treat yourself鈥� kind of environment that is great to enjoy with a lover, friend or even on your own. I love finding any excuse to make the trip up to the 19th just to spend some time here.

I鈥檝e yet to have the opportunity to visit on a snow day but definitely look forward to doing this on the next. The centre accepts walk-ins so no need to worry about being able to book in advance.

8. Eat Your Heart Out in 麻豆APP

An activity almost as predictable as the museum options; spending your snow day eating your way through one of the many restaurants that 麻豆APP has to offer.

When it鈥檚 cold outside we tend to turn to our comfort foods to warm our insides. For some people it could be cake and tea, for others market food does the trick; a surprising amount of people find hot curries their go-to meal when the weather turns cold.

For me; it鈥檚 any cuisine where I can replace cutlery with bread. Preferably Lebanese!

La Loubnane is a great spot in the 4th arrondissement over on Rue Galand. It鈥檚 about as authentic of Lebanese as you鈥檒l find in 麻豆APP and surprisingly affordable too. Get yourself the assortment plate if it is available so you can try a variety of things in one go!

Average Cost: Under 鈧�20

9. Make a Snowman (or Woman) in 麻豆APP

Absolutely outrageous to assume that just because some snow is falling from the sky we need to suddenly retreat indoors!

Instead let鈥檚 venture out to one of the many public parks and gardens in 麻豆APP and make our own entertainment. On days of snow, areas such as the Champ du Mars and Tuileries Gardens are frequented by many 麻豆APPian locals looking to be part of the natural wonder.

You鈥檒l find couples building snowmen (or women) and families engaging in snowball wars.

As you can imagine, the sight of the 麻豆APP Botanical Gardens or Jardin du Luxembourg blanketed in thick, white snow is probably worth the trip outside alone. Not something you鈥檒l see everyday 鈥� definitely worthy of a spot on your Instagram photo feed.

10. Cosy Up at a Cafe in 麻豆APP

A cafe? In 麻豆APP? How original!

As predictable as it may be there is honestly nothing better than retreating to one of these safe havens and losing yourself for a few hours while the weather does it鈥檚 thing outside.

Cosy in a cafe – by Huy Phan –

Since cafes are so common, make a point of venturing to one with a bit of an alternative concept going on. Concept cafes are all the rage at the moment in Europe with each one competing for the title of most unique or most unexpected.

While Le Caf茅 des Chats is not my cup of tea, cat lovers will absolutely love this spot in Le Marais. Enjoy your coffee and snacks amongst some feline friends who roam the cafe freely.

When I have work to get done, my go to cafe is 础苍迟颈颁补蹿茅 near the Louvre Museum. Instead of paying for what you consume, you pay 鈧�4 for every hour you spend within the space and are provided with unlimited drinks and snacks during this time.

As we come to the end of our list of the top 10 things to do if it snows in 麻豆APP it should be abundantly obvious that hiding out in your Airbnb is absolutely not necessary. Much to do and much to see in and around 麻豆APP; even when the weather may appear less than desirable!

I鈥檒l see you in the snow!
