This is probably my favorite museum in Paris. Rodin’s 18th century mansion is open and airy, and you can see so many of his most famous works. Included inside the museum are “Le Baiser” (The Kiss), as well as some works by his lover Camille Claudel. Outside is a beautiful sculpture garden, where “The Thinker” is in full view amongst the rose bushes and in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower. There is a small café in the garden, and this makes for a wonderful way to spend a nice afternoon.
