Paris is such a beautiful city. I guess all of you would agree with that. Hope you can share your experiences when you were in Paris. How was the scenery and atmosphere of Paris like? I really wish to travel to Paris too one day but I guess it would be quite some time before I can achieve this. What is the main factor that makes Paris such an attractive and romantic city? Would you prefer to visit Paris alone or with your loved one? Would you prefer Paris in summer or winter? What were the most memorable places that you have visited in Paris?

I have been to Paris 3 times. My first visit was in 1992, and at that time I visited Paris with my parents and my brother. We visited a lot of famous sights for instanse the Eiffel tower, Arc de Triomphe, Sacre Coeur, Centre Georges Pompidou and Louvre. Neither of us had been to Paris before, and we really enjoyed visiting the different sights and the different parts of Paris. In 1996 I also went to Paris with my parents and my brother, and in 1999 I went to Paris with a friend. We also did a lot of sightseeing, and I visited Notre Dame for the first time. I think it is beautiful, but I liked Sacre Coeur even more. I also found Louvre very interesting. I am an artist myself and I really enjoyed my visit at Louvre.

Unfortunately I have never been to Paris either, but hopefully one of these days I will. I have been to Europe - Italy! - so I have seen Rome, Sorrento, Capri, and Pompeii and it was wonderful. Based on that experience - I went with some high school students and I only knew two - I would want to go with someone I know or in a group that allows free time. I made so many new friends on that trip and we still talk. Its very cool that we do. I would say summer or spring as everything is in bloom, but then again Christmas lights would be up in the winter but the cold might hinder some of the plans. I hope you get to go one day!

I was in Paris in 1997 for World Youth Day, so my experience is probably quite different from the typical experience of people that have visited Paris. However, I really had a great time and would like to return at some point in the future. My favorite place that we went during our visit would have to be either the Louvre or Sacre Le Coeur (Scared Heart). I really loved the fact that Sacred Heart looked over the city and you could see such a beautiful view. In addition to that, I really liked seeing all of the artists at work on painting. I actually bought two original pieces of artwork while I was there and still have the one that I bought for myself. My mother has hers as well.

I think it is a city of dreams, people come to Paris with many dreams for beauty, rich, fashion, fun and above all money. Of course, Paris in Europe is the most popular, famous, modern and historic place. It is the destination for millions of tourists. Lots of events and ceremonies takes place through out the year that attracts rich, celebs and politician from all over the world.

I visited Paris for the first time when I was nineteen years old and I went there with my sister. We both speak French so it was enjoyable to communicate. We went there in the spring time. We went to the Eiffel Tower, the Notre Dame, did some shopping, went on a boat on the River Seine and visited a palace just outside the city. Now there is Disneyland a short distance away which is great fun for children. I like Paris and I have visited lots more cities in the world. My favorite cities are Sydney, Cape Town, Prague, Budapest, Salzburg, Dubrovnik, Lisbon and Istanbul. I love to see attractive looking architecture. I am not fond of visiting places during their winter. I like summer and I quite enjoy spring plus autumn.

i remember 10 year ago, i and my office mates made this pact that we will be seeing each other in Eiffel Tower in Paris once we will be no longer working in the same office. today when we have a chance to gather and have a talk, we would remind each other about that pact. i said i just have a picture maybe of an Eiffel Tower, placed it in my table and i'd say, "i've gone to it" they all laugh. those are happy thoughts shared with friends and make a beautiful mark in my memory..
