Time for Paris!

Next trip was to Paris. With my best friend Anna, we've been thinking a lot about going there. And the properly time came... We took a plane from Poznan to Beauvais. When we arrived, we had to take bus to get to Paris (it's about 80 km). Searching for Tour Eiffel was first thing we did through the window from the bus. It was there, but not that beautiful as during the night. We spent six days there, plenty of seesighting and walking down the breath-taking streets, discovering amazing nooks of nature or small cafés.

Moreover, we tried many typical french meals like ratatouille or snacks like macarons - tasty french cookies

Each day was planed carefully, but we had also many surprising adventures. First evening, we were exhausted 'cause of travel, so we stayed home. Next morning, the fun has begun. Jardin du Luxembourg, Panthéon, Sorbonne, Notre Dame, Ile de Saint Louis, Bastille, the market, Place de Voges, Hôtel de Ville, Centre Pompidou, Opéra, Madeleine, Place Vendôme...

That was amazing day! So many places we've been to... It was incredible to go down the little streets in Paris, watching people drinking coffee and eating croissants!

On Monday, we visited Montparnasse (especially the graveyard), Champs de Mars, we walked down the Tour Eiffel to Palais de Chaillot, then we went to Arc de Triomphe and down the Champs Elysées. Place de la Concorde was our next stop, afterwards Jardin des Tuileries. Also, we walked near Seine. The night was approaching so there was a possibility to see Paris during evening. It was unbelievable! For me, Paris is so much better during night.

Those two days were quite hard. Not only were we so motivated to see many places, we also wanted to get to now the quotidian life of Parisians. Anyway, last two days were plenty of visiting, but some free time as well.

On Tuesday, we went to graveyard Père Lachaise, next we've been chilling in café Arsenal. It was really good day, even there was sunny! And believe me, sunny days aren't so frequent in Paris. At the evening, using subway, we got to Montmare: Moulin Rouge, graveyard Montmare and the church Sacre Coeur were our following points. We had great night, there were some parties we joined and had fun over there.

Wednesday brought us plenty of attractions, too. We almost reached the summit of Tour Eiffel, after we arrived to Versailles to visit the marvelous castle of Louis XIV. I'll never forget the night: we lent bikes and rode 5th, 6th and 7th districts on! It was wonderful riding down the streets in almost asleep Paris! ^^

Last day, we made some shopping at the market near Bastille, then we were chilling in a café...

Later, after packing our luggage we took a flight to another trip destination...

Voilà! Paris gave us many lovable memories and amazing friends, can't wait to get back to this charming city! :)
