The Luxembourg palace was constructed by Maria Medici after death of her husband Henry the Fourth. She could not get used to an atmosphere of the Louvre and replaced it with an atmosphere of native Florence which she recreated in a palace and in a garden.

Frenchmen as usually surprise all the world with the original understanding of architectural decisions. First all the world was surprised with singularity of Tour d'Eiffel, including its ugly impregnation in a landscape of Paris. Later the world was surprised with ugliness of the center of Pompidou. Precisely also it seems surprisingly inharmonious the decision of construction of area Defans with its skyscrapers. Perhaps, after a while we shall get used and we shall admire with its beauty?

Pere la Chaise cemetery is well-known for a burial place of communars. We came in a memory of fighters for social justice. The cemetries of Paris absorbed all they could. The victims, placed side by side, without any other covering than their clothes, filled enormous ditches at the Pere la Chaise, Montmartre, Mont-Parnasse, where the people in pious rememberance will annually come as pilgrims.

It is considered that each Russian tourist should visit this Russian cemetery. Therefore we should execute this rule. It makes an impression of a big site with burial places of officeres of generals Kornilov and Vrangel, and other officers of White Army.

There is an orthodox church with habitual domes-bulbs at the territory of the cemetery. After the Bruxelles and Parisian gothic style the orthodox church looked rather unusually. Among tombs of emigrants Ivan Bunin and Andrey Tarkovsky's tombs are considered as the most significant.

Square du Vert Galant is on the western cape of Site island. This square is one of the most beautiful in Paris. Its name is translated as "the true lover". Henry IV has such a name, because he was known with his love affairs. His statue is beside the square.
