Paris Part 1

First studio review for Paris is in the morning, so here are some photos of places in Paris I've visited within the last week. Paris is going by really fast (never a good thing) - only a few more days left until I return to America.


I forget the name of this structure, I think it is famous:

From atop Tour Montparnesse which 47 meters shorter than the Eiffel Tower (shown above):

Atop Tour Montparnesse:

Studio Site @ Night - Pompidou Center:

Random guy on the street peeing in a corner while talking on the phone and holding his cane - some sort of magician I guess:

Notre Dame:

St Chappel, just a stones throw from Notre Dame:

Bibliotheque Nationale - National Library for France:

Catacombs under the streets of Paris consisting of REAL skeleton bones:

Paris sewer system (le poo poo):

Le Grande Arche - intersection of 12, yes 12, chaotic streets:

Le Louvre:

La Defense - new urban development on outskirts on Paris to help boost the economy and jobs. This building is a perfect cube with a giant hole punched out of the center:

Pompidou Center:

Parisian Flea Market. It is reportedly the largest flea market in the world (took over 3 hours to walk with only looking at a few booths - it completely takes over all the streets in a whole neighborhood):



More to come soon...
