Strasbourg is a must. It might be a little too far for a day trip by car, but you can also hop on board a fast train from Paris that will get you there in under 2 hours. Take our word for it, it\u2019s worth the journey!<br><br>Known as \u201cThe Capital of Christmas,\u201d Strasbourg is the kind of cute and charming town you\u2019d expect a handsome prince to gallop through on a white horse. It\u2019s chock-full of half-timber houses with pitched roofs and plenty of cosy restaurants for lunch and a glass of French wine.<br><br>There\u2019s even a picturesque river you can float down on a boat to take a look at the striking Strasbourg Cathedral. Don\u2019t miss the daily shows from its astronomical clock, and a photo of the Rhine River from its towering spire.<br><br><strong>Distance from Paris<\/strong><br><em>Car: 4 hours by car<\/em>&nbsp;<br><em>Train: 1 hour 45 minutes<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"10-st-malo\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. <strong>St. Malo<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B_hxewqHb2z\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Last but not least, the beach. Contrary to popular belief, a beach trip is perfectly doable from Paris. The historic walled port city of St. Malo in Brittany was propelled to fame following the success of the WWII historical fiction book <em>All the Light We Cannot See<\/em>. Visit this city near Paris after reading the novel for an even more magical experience in this pretty town.<br><br>As a popular holiday spot for families, St. Malo offers sandy beaches, great hotels and restaurants, and lots to engage the little kids. While it makes for a great day trip from Paris by train, you could drive there and stay even longer.
