| infintity's Full Review: Paris |
Paris is an elegant and beautiful city, capital of france, this city is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Having lived there for more than 2 years, I can say that there is more in the city than one can explore in one vacation trip.
The major attractions of paris are, of course the eiffle tower, notre dame, sacracoure, arc the trio, grand arch, champs elysees, louvre, invalides and the versailles palace just outside the city.
Eiffle was built for a convention in paris and has become syonymous with the name of the city itself. A tour of the top of the tower costs about 12 euros and can take upto 4 hours on weekends. but it is well worth to take it. the view of the city from the top if magnificient. It is better to go to the top in the morning and if you happen to visit the eiffle in the evening, it is better to see the lighted tower itself. there are lot of people enjoying close to the base of the tower and the best thing is to join them. you can also enjoy boating in the seine in the night.
Notre dame is a church built in the 13th centurt. it is arguably the most meautiful structure in paris. it is possible to climb the top of the cathedral. I have not done that but I am sure the view will be awesome. close to the church is a bookstore called shakespeare book store. it is the only english language bookstore in the city. the church is built on a small island on the seine river.
