It’s amazing how cool it is to see icon buildings in person. Or see things up close and personal that you’ve only seen in movies, pictures, etc. That was the case as we visited and walked around Paris. Being that it’s a bigger city, we only scratched the surface while we were there. But we manged to see all the main things there in the city.
The Eiffel Tower both during the day to climb the stairs and then take the elevator to the top. And in the evening when it sparkles in the night. It only does the light shows at 10pm and 11pm. However, it’s still a little light out at 10pm, so we chose to go see it at 11pm when it was dark. Totally worth it both times.
The Louvre with the glass pyramid in the middle surrounded by old art. And of course, seeing the famous Mona Lisa. It’s smaller than you think it might be but big enough to see from a little farther away. It was very crowded in this room. And not too many people moved out of the way so you could get close.
The “lock bridge” was neat to see. It’s been featured in movies and such. So we walked across the bridge to view all the locks.
The Arc de Triumph. A building in which drivers, circle around to get into the city. We chose not to go up into it. But instead, take pictures and move on.
Montamarte area where you pass by shops then head uphill toward the church to view Paris from a different point of view. We encountered beer salesman and musicans while on the trek.
Paris is definitely a city worth seeing. But know that it is expensive so save up before coming here. 🙂
