Paris

Wo hoooo ... Paris is so beautiful, especially from the top of Eiffel tower ... Mann, you should see it ... Sugoi ... Kirei ... Amazing beneran deh .... I really really really love Paris, it is a city of architecture and arts ... full of expression and beauty .... Amazing amazing .... Definitely worth a visit again later ...

Here's a summary of my tour:
1st day: Wandered around the city, to the church of notredam, st sulpice church, some other churches and buildings, louvre museum (outside), first and second triumphant gates, shopping district, moulin rouge, eiffel tower. It was a good but tiring day, but eiffel tower is just amazing, especially looking at Paris from the top ... I was scared going up since I am afraid of height, but It was worth it ... Most Paris looks white, except the new city which pretty much look like modern cities such as sydney or new york, full of offices ... It really felt like I was in the 1st century kingdom or Rome up there ... haha ... so full of architectural beauty ... Everywhere you go, there is always a beautiful building ...

2nd day: Visited Louvre museum ... it was hugeeeee ... Someone said if you only look at each item for 30 seconds in louvre, it will take you around 3 months to finish the whole museum ... It was an amazing experience for me looking at these arts ... Man, I wish I can appreciate it more, the arts, history, different cultures, sculptures, mona lisa (oh my God) ...

3rd day: I went to Chatteau de Varseille, which used to be a palace for kings and queens ... apparently it is the biggest palace in europe ... so pretty with all its huge gardens and fountains and the queen palace .... so beautiful .... We also went to La Fayette which was the most luxurious shopping stores in France, full with expensive brands which I know little about like LV, etc ... Then we went to china town to have dinner together ... We were grateful to have found an all-you-can-eat restaurant since the whole 3 days was quite tiring ...

4th day: We did not go to many places, but only visiting a church which is said to be located in the highest point (land) in Paris, UNESCO world heritage, Grande Palaise, and one free museum ... We finished our trip by having lunch in a Thai restaurant near our hotel ...

Paris is definitely worth a visit ... Thanking God for the opportunity to go there and enjoy my holiday after such a long half-semester (block) ... I plan to go to berlin, brussels, antwerp and amsterdam (again) during this month and will also watch a soccer match in rotterdam (feyenoord vs az alkmaar) ... woo hoooo ... soccerrrrr ... ole ole ole ole ...
