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 parks
One 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.

Tahnk you for your advise. Spicy was really a great place !
Some great stuff on your pages Dave, good pics and I like the many links. Checked out Anthony's site = brilliant photographer.
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!
Yes, Sacre Cour is not to be missed! Excellent pics --- I did stand in that very alleyway...Norman :)
Your Paris pictures are absolutely gorgeous. I'll be there in December. It will be a dream come true for me! :)
Great pages Dave. I've enjoyed reading through your tips and looking at the pictures. Thanks for sharing. Tom
We go to Paris every two years for a long weekend and we always dine one night at Le Petit Prince. Terrific. Love their photos of their party when the staff all dressed up. Awesome food and ambiance. Formidable
Hi Dave. I have just rated (probably again) your hotels and am sending the page to a friend. We like your restaurant recs too and are going to Le Petit Prince in a couple of weeks. I will get back to you.
Heya Dave. I'm only half through your pages and love them already!..especially the April in Paris music I while reading your Arc tip! Fantastic job matey!! I've saved a few of your tips to use when we eventually get there!! Thanks heaps!! Cheers, Ann :o)
I'm visiting Paris again in a week and I must say your Paris page - especially "where to eat" - feels like it was written for me. Thanks!
