Short Stay In Paris

December, 2023 · JOYEUSES FÊTES.

In short, winter is really not the best choice to visit. :)

EIFFEL TOWER IS EVERYWHERE

The lighting condition changes dramatically within an hour. Winter is really not the best choice to visit!
The New Year is just around the corner, and tower elements are everywhere.

Landmark

Tuileries Garden · I was really amazed by the nice cut of the trees. Even they are literally bare in winter.
Arc de Triomphe and Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris.

Art

Louvre and Water Lilies (Monet) at Musée de l'Orangerie.
(Left) Winged Victory of Samothrace · It is displayed in a majestic manner, positioned on a platform with numerous steps and facing towards me as I turn right. This is my favorite one.
(Mid) Mona Lisa · It looked much smaller than I had thought. Maybe it was because the hall was too big and too crowded.
(Right) Venus de Milo · Didn't have much time to appericate it closely.
