Prague
Weather... Stoshpilevy city is gradually awakening from hibernation: during the day +8 ... + 10 ° С, at night up to + 4 ° С. Without warm clothes, you will freeze! And also take an umbrella and a waterproof jacket - the weather in Europe in March is changeable.
Things to do. Golden Prague is a long-standing love of travelers from all over the world. In summer, it is bursting with tourists, so the off-season is the best time to get a feel for the city. We were in November - this is the most unpopular month, but even then there were a lot of tourists.
Ride a river tram down the Vltava Walk through the old streets in the early morning, admire the tiled roofs from Prague Castle and enjoy the soft green haze of foliage in the parks. We have a cool Prague itinerary - you won't miss anything important with it!

You will enjoy Paris, if not completely without tourists (this does not happen), then at least not so crowded. We were in Paris in October, and even then there were plenty of tourists. So relax, have a coffee in Montmartre, take a look at the Luxembourg Gardens that breathe in spring, and see the city from the free observation decks. By the way, we know how cheaper it is to climb the Eiffel Tower!
