Paris
Trains run from Le Havre railway station about every hour to Paris, terminating at Gare St Lazare. However be warned that the journey time from Le Havre to Paris even for the faster services is 2hrs 10mins. There are of course a myriad of fantastic sightseeing opportunities in Paris from which to choose. The Ile De La Cite area is very suitable for a short visit, as it includes favorites like Notre Dame, the Conciergerie, Sainte Chapelle and just across the river the Louvre. (But many will head straight for the Eiffel tower!)
