A weekend in Paris

I joined my colleagues who were going to Paris on the first weekend of September.We were a group of five.We took the bus at 12:30 AM early in the morning on Saturday.It was nice to see that that there were a lot of Indians in the bus apart from us.We reached Paris at about 8 'o' Clock in the morning.

On that morning, we took a quick tour around the heart of the city. Later we had the opportunity to have an aerial view of Paris from Montparnasse. It is a building well over 200 meters in height, supposed to be the second tallest structure in Paris.The view from up there was spectacular.

Later we moved in to our hotel rooms. The hotel was in Clichy, which is at a fair distance from the centre of the city.In the evening, we went to the Eiffel tower.This is definitely the best place to visit in Paris.Any tourist who visits Paris will surely not miss the Eiffel tower .I seized the opportunity to take some good pics. We took a boat ride on the river Siene.We passed by the Notre Dame church and various historical buildings along the river and as the sun went down the red sky the Eiffel tower was dazzling with colourful lights.

It was a day full of travel and by the end of it I was dead tired .All I needed was a good nights sleep to recharge me.The next morning, we went to the Louvre museum.I must say that this is the biggest and the most splendid museum I have ever been to. Everything ranging from rare coins,replicas of tombs,tools used by the various civilizations to paintings were on display. The biggest attraction being the painting of Monalisa by Leanardo Da Vinci.But frankly speaking, I saw many other paintings which were far better than the Monalisa.Maybe I am wrong, I dont know.We had a problem coming out of the museum 'cos the theft alarm had been raised. So all of us were thoroughly checked before coming out.By then, it was time and we had to rush to our bus to get back.The experience of being in Paris was great and even though it was a short trip, it was a memorable one.
