Centre Pompidou
Beaubourg only got better after its recent remodeling. It rivals and sometimes surpasses the collections of the Tate Modern in London and MoMA in New York. If you have any interest in modern art whatsoever, this is the place to go.
The plexiglass escalator offers the best views of Paris on the way up.
The bookstore is tops, and an outlet of Printemps offers a wide selection of chic little gifts to bring back to friends. The rooftop retaurant, called "Georges", offers spectaular views in a chic setting - pricey, but worth it.





i wish to have more information aboutPompidou "park" because Burapha University in Thailand is thinking of building a large library park that is similar to the Pompidou. I teach in that U.(chemistry and Physics) I donot think the Thais are ready for such "idea". The children would be holding soft drinks paper mugs and browes around LOOKING at technology rather than be part of techno;ogy.Please advise.
Thank you
