it's all true.
Beautiful "city of light"
Outstanding food; stylish Parisians; history; art; energy, architecture; the full musical spectrum from jazz to salsa; a flaneur's paradise; the Paris "vibe" - and cafe society at its best.
Paris has style.....
- Just a personal suggestion: ..... if possible when you go to Paris for the first time, learn enough polite French to get around, and .....
go by yourself
Apologies (for gushing) to anyone who actually lives within the Paris Peripherique and wakes up with her daily, warts & all...

All the great parksOne of my favorite things about Paris is it seems like everywhere you turn there is a beautiful park. Here's an article by Alan Riding about some of the Secret Gardens of Paris. "Make a wrong turn in Paris and something good is bound to come of it. "
For Paris photograph lovers: Anthonys Home Page I share a couple of Anthony's photos with his permission, as I enjoy them and I think you will also. Please pay a visit to his excellent web site if you find time. |  | |

yeoldbean Fri Jun 19, 2009 09:19 UTC The service was absolutely wonderful. The food was of great quality with the service & ambience even better. The crème Brule was so completely smooth, light, exquisitely flavoured with hints of vanilla and caramel.” Five stars from me! | jumpingnorman Tue Jan 27, 2009 06:18 UTC Yes, Sacre Cour is not to be missed!
