Slowly Paris is beginning to reopen and one more wonderful step to get to back to the Paris we love is the openings of the museums and monuments. Many of the fantastic temporary exhibits have been extended into the winter and even start of 2021. So if you are like me and were dying to see the Christian Louboutin at the Palais de la Porte Dorée you are in luck!
