30 most Instagrammable Places in Paris

Paris has been at the top of my bucket list for years and I’m so happy I was able to visit this beautiful city this past spring. Paris was bigger than I had imagined. I’m so grateful I had Karya with me to guide me through the whole city! She’s visited Paris multiple times and was recently there for Paris Fashion Week in February 2022 to shoot street style. She created a full agenda for us to explore Paris in the mornings and hit different spots, museums, and food places in the afternoon and evenings.

Here are the 30 Most Instagrammable Places in Paris:
