It was a perfect day for me to look around Paris.
My first stop is visiting the Lourve Museum starting from the inside which is looking at the wonderful arts and sculptures including Mona Lisa and The Last Supper.
Then, heading out and walking around near the Lourve Museum.
As usual, there are lot of tourists visiting this place. If you are a fan of art and history, then you should definitely visit this place when you are in Paris.
I mostly use the Metro to travel within Paris to see the places that I want to visit.
I've seen the Opera House where the story of Phantom of the Opera came from.
The St. Margaret Church which, to me, looks like a Pantheon.
Galerie Lafayette which sadly close on Sundays. Wanted to go to a cafe which serves delicious macaroons. Not only this shopping centre was closed but same goes with other shops on Sundays. T T
That's the Metro line which me and my friends travel from one place to another in Paris.
Visited the Notre Dame. Sadly, I couldn't get in because many people were waiting in the long queue to go in the Notre Dame. But, it's really nice on the outside. I wonder what it looks like inside there. Probably the inside is very eye-catching.
Took these while heading to our next destination. Autumn is coming.
We just keep walking and walking until we see something worth taking photos.
I can see Arc de Triomphe way over there.
Yes, just slowly walking and taking pictures at the same time.
Had lunch at the nearby cafe and we rush to the Eiffel Tower because we were suppose to go for the bicycle tour. Unfortunately, we change metros and even if we were late about 5 - 10 minutes, the bicycle tour group was gone. Aish. There goes my 25 Euros down the drain. T T
On the bright side, I get to climb up to the Eiffel Tower. I climb to the very top of the Eiffel Tower to see the whole view of Paris. Although it is tiring, but it is worth seeing the city.
One thing that I can't miss trying out in Paris is the macaroons. Found the macaroon shop which serves the most delicious macaroons ever.
These macaroons are heavenly. Was jumping for joy after every single bites of these. If I remember correctly, I had Rose, Coffee, Pistachio, Jasmine, Passion Fruit with Chocolate, and the two other flavours which I forget. Overall, these are the best macaroons which I ever had.
After dinner near the Eiffel Tower, took a few more photos with the Eiffel Tower again.
I end my night in Paris by taking the canal cruise along the River Seine. Even though that night was raining and strong wind came by, but I stood there and manage to get good photos including the Eiffel Tower.
I said good night to Paris. I still haven't seen some places yet in Paris like the Catacombs, Napoleon's Tomb, inside Notre Dame and Opera House. I would love to visit Paris again. I want to explore more.
Goodbye Paris, I will come and visit again soon.
Next stop, Switzerland.
