Paris, France
Paris! The ideal place in the world for honeymoon and romance. But equally a favorite city for tourists, art lovers, historians, food connaiseurs, and many more.
I have been fortunate to visit Paris many times. On the pages I have carefully selected some of my photos of the more well-known sights of the city. I hope you will enjoy them.
Let's start with a boat tour on River Seine and marvel at the extravagantly decorated Pont Alexandre III, Pont Neuf, Pont des Invalides, Pont Sully, Pont au Change and more
No feature on Paris would be complete without images of the Eiffel Tower, built in 1889 by the French engineer Gustave Eiffel for the 1889 Universal Exposition in Paris
Champs-Élysé is well known to most people, but have you ever seen badminton matches, ordinary bicycle races and sail boat competitions at and on this avenue?
Sacré-Cœur Basilica and Montmartre are the essence of life for local contemporary painters, who will pitch their wares and skills on Place de Tertre
Notre-Dame Cathedral on the eastern half of Île de la Cité was immortalized by the novel of "The Hunchback of Notre Dame", but you can still see bells, gargoyles and gruesome chimeras
Last, but not least, a visit to the old Palace de Louvre is simply a must. Here are images of some of the great artworks, for instance the famous painting of Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci
