  • You have probably heard of Arsene Lupin, the most famous french thief ???
    Invented by writer Maurice Leblanc, the "housebreaker-gentleman", described as a handsome and charismatic man who always succeeded in stealing the most outrageously protected diamonds, belongs to the popular imagery of many frenchmen...
    As an example, a really bad movie about him was released a few weeks ago and more than 1 million people have watched it (unbelievable for such a bad movie !!). Arsene Lupin used to love leaving by the roofs after his forfeits.... This picture is dedicated to him...

    Warnings Or Dangers: IIIrd - It's falling apart !!
  • Tip Rating:
  • Contrary to what folk generally believe, Paris has its dark parts. The most famous "old part"of Paris, Le Marais, is not utterly pleasant and attracting. For instance, the owners of this building should think about a restoration...

    Warnings Or Dangers: IVth - I just hope that if you visit this place...
  • Tip Rating:
  • ... it is not due to an infringment of the Law !! The Paris Court of Justice (Palais de Justice) is situated on the island of La Cite, in the heart of the city. You may visit some of its most beautiful rooms : among them, the 1st of the Court of Appeal is wonderful (the photograph was taken there). Don't forget to catch a glimpse of the Sainte Chapelle, one of the most brillant churches of Paris, whose entrance is common to the Court of Justice's.

  • Tip Rating:
  • I've just found a former UFO !!! Situated in the western side of the "jardins du Luxembourg", nobody had noticed it until I realized ET had left his vehicle among the foliage od Paris, and not in the US !!

    Pick-Pockets: VIIIth - You'll never rob what...
  • Tip Rating:
  • ... is protected enough... Even if you may capture the essence of Paris' monuments in your camera, don't even try to rob them !! They are protected !!! Still... well, OK, even if there is a fence surrounding the Obelisque of La Concorde, you may jump over it... Damn, you're right, Paris' splendors are not protected that much !!! ;-D

    Warnings Or Dangers: XIIth - Bercy
  • Tip Rating:
  • Paris - The bridge that leads to Bercy (on the left)

  • So, you probably wonder why I have added Bercy among the "Warning tips" (or you don't care at all, and you don't ask yourself any question, and it's OK with me too...) ...
    Well, it's pretty easy to understand : Bercy, for french people, means the Ministry of Finances... Indeed, the quay of Bercy is the place in Paris where this Ministry is situated. On TV or in any medium, journalists will refer to this place when they mean the ministry that decides what fate has in its tax store for them....

     Interessant de voir Paris a travers les yeux de qqn qui y habite. Surprise d'apprendre l'existence de l'eglise russe Al Nevski, car la plus grande cathedrale dans ma ville natale porte le meme nom. Fatima , et la main de Fatima est tres repandue au Maroc.
