Below, you'll find some pictures taken around Paris during our first week here (more recent ones to come later-promise!)
Opera Grenier (National Opera) where we saw a beautiful ballet-opera consisting of three ballets.
Luxembourg Gardens (Le jardin de Luxembourg) a popular place to eat lunch and people watch near my university. I'm looking forward for all the flowers to planted here for spring! (Latin Quarter, 4th arrondissment)
Sacre Coeur (Monmartre, 18th arrondissment) Ma ny people beleive this church to be as old as Notre Dame, when in fact it was built in the 1900s. Many French people do not like it because the artichecture does not represent the time period or style. One can notice the church is actually a mix of Byzantine, Classic, Middle Ages, and some Gothic style pieces as well.
Houses from the Middle Ages (13-15 centuries) in Le Maris, 1st arrondissment.
Le Prophet (sculpture) in le Jardin de Luxembourg (Luxembourg Gardens, Latin Quarter 4th arrondissment)
Last remaining and oldest vineyard in Paris (in Monmatre 18th arrondissement)
Seine River, Paris
