I have been there 4 times and studied abroad there for a semester, and I love Shakespeare & Company, Angelina's (for hot chocolate), the Centre Pompidou, L'Orangerie Museum, and the Montmartre cemetery.
I definitely plan to live there someday and want to marry a French guy (and this is coming from someone who generally does not want to get married).
I just cannot rave about the city enough; for me, the charm lies basically all in its literary and artistic history. Not that it isn't absolutely charming now, but I have to admit I did not interact with many "real" Parisians; only the young, hip ones in bars and such lol. I wasn't very interested in that whole scene, so I spent most of my time wandering around the city by myself and watching old American movies.

Hi, I have been to Paris one time in June 2007. I like this city very much, simply because it's just beautiful. the artistic old buildings, the big museums, the churches, the Eiffel tower, the palaces, etc.
But my favorite place is Chateau de Versailles, which is around 1 hour by train outside of Paris. this chateau is very elegant and luxurious. i like to imagine how Kings of France spent their time and activities in this majestic complex of palaces. Marie Antoinette had her own smaller palace inside the same complex. there is temple d'amour and l'orangerie, but i did not have time to visit those buildings. we can travel around this palace complex by taking a small golf-car-like vehicle equipped with GPS. so, we can visit the most important places inside this complex without getting lost.

Hey I never go Paris so I can’t say anything about Paris. But I have heard about this city many times. And I also see on internet about this place. And I like their photographs.
