After all the "hassle and buzzle" of activities, I left for Paris, a place where time stood still with a certain charm. I would like to be back and stay for a month or so....something about its charm...something about Paris.
"Paris, Je t'amie .....Every morning you step out
the door into the greatest standing set in the world. It's not just the
places all of us tourists know — the Tuileries, the Eiffel Tower, the
Latin Quarter —
it's the anonymous streets where the food in the
humblest bistro makes your mouth water, where the women are always pert and
smartly dressed, the men rueful and wise. Even a stranger would come up to me and freely compliment and asked for my hand in marriage with such settings....
Everything and everyone
merely awaits further transformation by the cinematographer's
glamorizing light. Even a sad story does not seem quite so doleful in
this context." someone quoted about Paris on a love story movie shot in Paris....
It must be the air or water running through the city, a place which captivates...
hearts, film makers, artists, fashion shows, models, lovers and even food enthusiasts.
You couldn't possibly visit Paris without
seeing the Eiffel Tower. It was strategically placed that you could see its top from all angles in Paris no matter where you are....
It rises 300 meters tall (984 ft) and was twice as high as the
Washington
Monument, at that time the tallest structure in the
world. The Eiffel Tower was built for the World Exhibition
in 1889, held in celebration of the French Revolution
in 1789

Yes, something about Paris...the charms of many centuries were engraved and sculptured on walls, ceilings with gold trimmings, paintings...... and from all these but you must take a peep at the painting of Mona Lisa.
The buildings, arts and sculptures revealed the heavenly hosts crafted by the hands that were convicted with passion still lingered through centuries leaving a nostalgia feeling of someone's sacrificial love that worth keeping and embracing......
It must be the air that intoxicated with the emotions of love and passion that created an exuberant city like Paris....yes, there is something about Paris...
till these days, this place is filled with angelic voices and the old pipe organ...
even captive spirits are set free with such awesome sights.......The only single word I may use will be "charming", charming indeed. I felt that I found my "prince" in this city...
A city with character, passion, style and charm....
Will be back...in God's timing..."Paris, Je t'amie" I love Paris !!
