The exhibition "Golden Thread. The art of dressing from north Africa to the far east", on show at the Musée du Quai Branly - Jacques Chirac until 6 July 2025, focuses on gold in the textile arts from Antiquity to the present day. This plunge into the history of this fascinating and precious metal takes visitors on a journey around the globe, from North Africa to the Middle East, via Japan, China and India. The exhibition also highlights the richness, technicality, inventiveness and expertise of the weavers, embroiderers and craftsmen who have been sublimating fabrics and silks since the dawn of time. This is a unique opportunity to admire a selection of traditional and ceremonial outfits, festive and wedding dresses from North Africa and the Orient, drapes and sparkling costumes from Asia and India, kimonos from the Edo period... and many other textile treasures. Modern creations by Chinese fashion designer Guo Pei are also on show.

Best Things to Do

Amusement parks

M51***54

One day one park ticket, one day to basically have the opportunity to play, each project is good, you can also enter and exit the park, with the ticket to enter the park, you can pack out food. The fireworks at night are very ostentatious, great, not cold weather starts at 7 o&#39;clock, it is worth it

Amazing experience. If you want to enjoy the full museum, I recommend going in the morning early already and booking an audio tour or normal tour. If you know what you want to see, a later time is also okay.

What a magnificent structure. The view of Paris is wonderful. You have the option to take the lift or use the stairs.

Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris

SUNSHINE ONUS

Notre Dame is worth it. It is one of the most famous attractions in Paris and a must visit attraction. It was rainy today and the queue was long. Very crowded. Enter the interior of Notre Dame, deeply attracted by the exquisite religious works of the interior decoration, statues, murals, tapestries and so on. Taking a lot of photos and reading a lot of religious knowledge. Worth a visit.

Palace of Versailles

Visiting the Palace of Versailles was an amazing experience, but there are a few things to keep in mind. The palace is about an hour away from the city by train. The gardens are super vast, so be prepared for a lot of walking (suggest to rent a bicycle, golf car or take the shuttle train🤔). There is no need to add the musical show to your ticket if it&rsquo;s scheduled during your visit&mdash;it was free when I went on april. Also, bring some food with you, as dining options inside can be limited and pricey.Keep in mind that once your ticket is scanned, you can only enter the palace once. Make sure to explore the entire palace before stepping out. I arrived 2&ndash;3 hours later than my booking time but was still able to enter without any issues. Be prepared for long queues, especially during peak hours.Overall, it was worth the visit despite the minor inconveniences!

Musee du Quai Branly

I first met the Musee du quai Branly because of architect Jean Nouvel. I was amazed at the clever use of more than 10 architectural surfaces in one building. When I studied architectural surfaces at Penn, I used this building as my case study. Until I really had the opportunity to stand in front of it, this museum has left an indelible impression in my mind since then. Even though I live in New York and have seen various museums around the world, it is the most amazing one for me! The glass, which imitates nature and is specially abstracted, protects the exhibits, connects the inside and the outside, and blurs the boundaries. Walking indoors, I feel like I am brought into the primitive jungle and grassland. The charm of primitive art from Africa, Asia, Oceania and the Americas is magnified and focused. Masts, columns, and textiles are both abstract and completely different from Eastern and Western cultures. Mysterious and lovely. In the evening, the lights and the garden complement each other, adding a bit of agility to the gorgeous red main building at night in Paris. The Eiffel Tower in Paris can be seen from the roof and the ingenious side windows of the building. The symbol of Paris is integrated into the exhibition and becomes a part of it, as if it symbolizes the fusion and penetration of culture. The exhibition is cleverly integrated and projected. Walking out of the exhibition, it feels like walking in the long river of history and time. Thanks to the curators, museums, and architects for carefully presenting the minority cultures, I have the opportunity to see and understand a world and culture that is completely different from my life and growth background.
