TimTravels - La Ville Lumière: Paris - Part 1

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

Bienvenue mes amis Steemians, bienvenue sur mon nouvel article TimTravels

I actually have no idea if this is correctly written but I gave it a try. Sorry to all French speaking Steemians out there. Speaking of French, in todays TimTravels edition I will take you on a journey through one of the worlds most buzzing metropolis, the City of Light, Paris!

Ever since I got my new Camera I decided to pursuit my passions more actively. I used to love photography und I enjoyed traveling, both however played only a small part in my life. Now, with Steemit some things have changes. I think its time emphasize the importance of what is given here to us.

Before getting to philosophical it's time to show you some of my latest shots! As some of you might have read in yesterday's post @vladikras and I went to Paris. It's was my first time and won't be the last time, that's for sure! Although I come from a big city I was overwhelmed by the fact how busy the streets of Paris are!

We wanted to take an Uber to our hotel but saw pretty quickly that it's pure nonsense and a waste of time being stuck in the traffic. Neither was the metro an alternative option as you can see.



We decided to walk to our Hotel which was located near the Arc de Triomphe de l’Étoile. We were lucky with the weather as you can see.







What you can see in the pictures above is the Flamme du Souvenir under the arc. It is a symbol for all the fallen people of the first world war that never could have been identified.

Our hotel was only 10 minutes away from the Arc and was quite a nice stay. If you need a good stay near the city center I can recommend you the Hôtel Champerret Elysées.






Let's go out to see more of Paris! Are you ready?







After our first stop at la Tour Eiffel we needed some refreshment. Hands down, who loves ice cream? Probably everyone of us. But did you see this kind of ice cream? Mind = blown!





Tomorrow you will see part 2 of my Paris journey, don't miss it! For all of you Paris lover there is a little quest I prepared. The first who guesses the correct building of which we take a picture in the photograph below will win 5 SBD. Write in the comment what building it is! Good luck

I am very much impressed with your post :) :) If I say -- what a great post!! -- then this compliment wouldn't be great, I can say amazed, If I would be an English poem writer like William Shakespeare then I will write a poem and believe that poem will be famous :) :) ..... lots of love from my side.

Thanks for the kind words! Just trying my best
