Travelling To France

Last year, I went to France with my family. It was a so exerciting and romantic trip when I recalled from this experience.

This is the most famous Eiffel Tower which located on the Champ de Mars in Paris. The tower is the tallest building in Paris and the most-visited paid monument in the world.

                            Notre-Dame Cathedral

It is the cathedral of the Catholic Archdiocese of Paris: that is, it is the church that contains the cathedra (official chair) of the Archbishop of Paris, currently André Vingt-Trois. The cathedral treasury houses a reliquary with the purported Crown of Thorns. Notre Dame de Paris is widely considered one of the finest examples of French Gothic architecture in France and in Europe, and the naturalism of its sculptures and stained glass are in contrast with earlier Romanesque architecture.

The Arc de Triomphe is one of the most famous monuments in Paris.



Seine River

 Along the Seine River, most are mound., and 30bridges acrossing the river. Buildings are standing in the two sides. The scenery looks so grand. 

This view was catched when I stand at the top of the Eiffel Tower. City govement is over there.

Aphrodite of Milos better known as the Venus de Milo, is an ancient Greek statue and one of the most famous works of ancient Greek sculpture. Created at some time between 130 and 100 BC, it is believed to depict Aphrodite (Venus to the Romans) the Greek goddess of love and beauty. It is presently on display at the Louvre Museum in Paris.

This is ‘Red Light Area’. We took the photoes outside the club.

So sexy clothes, aren’t they? I can’t imagine how the prostitutes in the sex shop look like when they wear these clothes.

Every year between March 24^th and May 20^th, lots of people coming from different countries will visit Keukenhof Garden.

When you entered into the garden, you will firstly see the attractive fountain

This is a wide sea of flowers. It nearly reaches the sky. Limited by the pixel, my camera couldn’t catch all of the vision.

Along the road, I was really attracted by these different kinds of flowers. But I cannot name them.

The shape is really cute, just like a girl, isn’t it?

The “wood shoes”: This is one of the special goods that Holland is famous for.

These tulips are made of wood. So special, aren’t they?

Chair on the lawn.  You can have a try. It is so comfortable.
