PARIS, FRANCE, December 22, 2010 (Press-News.org) Paris's Palais de la Decouverte is showcasing an unusual exhibition entitled Get Tactile, which allows visitors to explore their sense of touch.
Travellers with Paris hotel bookings can check out the installation until March 13th 2011 at the venue and attendees are encouraged to interact with everything in the collection.
According to the organisers, the show is family-friendly and allows people to look at the way their senses work.
"The exhibition is full of fun and, with a wealth of sensations, offers a great opportunity for children in particular to enjoy the freedom to explore," they added.
Attendees from nearby accommodation such as Hotel Des Arts Paris will find they not only investigate the physical sense of being touched, but also the concept of being emotionally affected.
Unusually, visitors will be asked to take their shoes off before entering the display area, as this will allow them to take in all of the sense-exploration on offer.
Admission to the exhibition costs EUR7 (GBP5.95), but there are concessions available.
Opening hours at the centre are from Tuesdays to Saturdays between 09:30 and 18:00 local time and 10:00 to 19:00 on Sundays and public holidays. The complex is shut on Mondays.
Anyone getting to the Palais de la Decouverte by January 25th could also check out the Marine Alliances show.
For more information on this event, visit the Grand Palais website or contact the venue on +33 1 5643 2020.
Hotels-Paris.co.uk offers a wide range of accommodation in Paris, such as the Kyriad Brancion Hotel Paris.

To be doing exactly what you wish to do in life, expressing your sexual power to fuel all aspects of your life--to be a sex kitten or tiger--none of this is bound by age. On November 30, 2010, the Wall Street Journal published a peer-reviewed, breakthrough study reported from the journal Nature, showing the "astounding discovery" that eighty year old rats can be turned into fertile youngsters with age-related diseases reversed.
This is a clue as to what's now happening in science. Studies that are done on rats most often translate to the same results in humans. The ...

Look, this message of vanity and fun comes at a time when we are facing serious issues in our country. In the prevention of preventable diseases in the world, we rank LAST, behind every other developed country. In the care of children, we hold this same humiliating and unforgivable position. And yet we spend twice as much on healthcare per capita than any of the other wealthy countries. We have slipped below 47th place in longevity behind countries we haughtily consider to be undeveloped.
Most of our governing representatives, from the very top down, are in bed with ...
