Today’s New York Times ran a great article about the “other” museums.  Other than the Louvre, the Musee d’Orsay, the Picasso and the Rodin.  Some of the greatest cultural experiences in Paris can be found at the smaller museums.  Here is a list of some of their recommendations, which I agree with wholeheartedly.
