Grand & Petit Palais
Twin Beaux-Arts palaces raised for the 1900 World's Fair, facing each other across Avenue Winston-Churchill. The Petit Palais (free) holds the City of Paris's fine-arts museum; the Grand Palais, a glass-and-steel cathedral of culture, hosts Paris's most coveted art fairs and Chanel runway shows beneath its soaring Belle Époque dome.
