J'adore Paris

What was it about Paris that drove so many people there...

Beats me...i don't know the answer to that question...but one thing for sure...Paris was indeed in my list...went there during the interchange between Spring to Summer 2009...Paris was indeed a lovely city...the pictures all came out lovely...

We all stay at this budget hotel...Etap Hotel in Jean Marre area...its near to the subway...or tube...or whatever they called it in europe...so it was quite easy to get around as Paris has an extensive tube network...segregated by zones...we bought the all day pass for zone 1...which covers almost everything needs to be seen in Paris...

Paris is incomplete without visiting its unbelievably popular landmark...EIFFEL TOWER...seriously...if you had been to Paris but failed to go to Eiffel Tower...its unthinkable...its like walking without shoes in the middle of winter...okay...that doesn't come off right...but you sure get my point...it was a long queue to buy the ticket...and have to wait for the elevator...but it was worth waiting...the picturesque view from up there was breathtaking...

The trip will also be incomplete without going to the world's famous Louvre that housed Mona Lisa...the most popular painting in the whole wide world...taking a river cruise along the river seine...went to another must go landmark of Paris which is Notre Dame...walk along Champs De Elysee up to Arc De Triomphe...of course paid a visit to the world's famous club made even more popular by the movie of the same name Moulin Rouge...paid a visit to Gallerias La Fayette...Hard Rock Cafe Paris...and some others...

There are some other monuments and landmark that we went but i can't really recall it...but it was a fantastic experience...at least...the experience with the city...i can't really say that same about some of really awful experience along the way...which i think was not worth mentioning as travelling supposed to be a recount of every single great moments...so i'll just focus on that...hehehe...

Overall...i think that Paris is one of those ultimate city that you have to go at least once in your lifetime...and of coz...some people choose to return to the city for the second time...as for me...i'll go to other places in my list first...
