A must go place if you are in Marseille.The place is lovely with lots to see.The view of Marseille from the Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde is wonderful.The best way is a local tourist train that looks like a little steam train from the old port.It is quite steep if you want to walk.

In the old hangars of the boatyards of the city of Nantes, the art company Royal Deluxe has installed its gallery and building site where it builds beautiful machines in the shape of animals, piloted by people. This is a mix between simple attractions for all ages, and art.
A mix between wood, m...

What do you see when you look up to the top of the great cathedral of Notre Dame? You see monsters, half-man and half-beast. These demon looking creatures carved out of stone are called gargoyles. They are one of the many eerie stone figures that adorn the gutters of the Cathedral of Notre Dame in P...

Many people come to Sacré-Coeur to admire the superlative view from the top of the 271-foot-high dome, the second highest point in Paris after the Eiffel Tower. If you opt to skip the climb up the spiral staircase, the view from the front steps is well worth the trip.
But don't miss spending som...

Versailles was initially constructed as a hunting lodge for the royal family. Although it was once located in the countryside, however the constant growth of the city of love has caused the château to now be in a suburb of Paris. Louis XIII commissioned the construction of the lodge in 1624. It ...

Most tourists visit the Eiffel Tower in daylight. That's reason enough to delay your climb until the late evening, when smaller crowds and shorter lines make an ascent more pleasant. But an even better reason is to enjoy the tower's nighttime ambience. There is something magical about visiting the E...

Definitely a must see for any visitor to Paris. From the imposing gothic facade to the cavernous interior, everything about this place is architecturally striking and impressive. Be sure not to miss the creepy looking gargoyle buttresses on the sides of the cathedral and the small park to the ba...

”To bring two cultures together, one has to build a bridge between them”, is a popular saying. Another saying goes: a relationship is like a garden, when well nurtured and maintained, it blooms in abundance. With these sayings in mind, Strasbourg and Kehl, both cities on either side of the Rhine...

The Provence is well known for its picturesque villages, scenic landscape and lavender (smell). Surprisingly some tourists do not know that close to the small city of Castellane you can find a spectacular natural wonder: the "Gorges du Verdon". This was the same with me by the way...

Pointe du Raz is perhaps the most famous headland in Brittany. It is well known for strong winds and huge waves. The cape is 72 meters high.
Until 1996 all parts of the area were accessible. Since then environmental protection measures have been taken to protect the local flora and recover the do...

If you ever make it to Paris go to the catacombs!!!! Visually it is amazing, and I didn't spend hardly enough time there. I was there about an hour before closing time and was run out because I was doing photography, time exposures since you can't use a flash down there. Also it was a rainy cold ...

H and I were hungry and tired as we strolled down the Champs Elysees one night. We agreed we needed to sit down and eat but we were so easily distracted. When we got to the Arc de Triomphe I was surprised to find out we could go to the top. Where did we get the energy to climb all those stairs? ...
