[L4L] J'aime Paris

4th Feb 2012.

Today our journey inside Paris actually begins.

For the first stop,

we went to the Basilique du Sacre-coeur (Sacred Heart)

It's a Roman-Byzantine Church.

There's also a nice view from there as it's located at the top of Butte Montmartre. A hill.

Next, we went to the Arc de Triomphe.

It's a monument for the military victories of Napoleon.

To get in the museum there's a fee. So we just take a few snapshot.

Then, Eiffel Tower!

Yesterday we went there at night where the temperature is minus minus.

Today we went there in the afternoon!

So the temperature is just nice.

Not too cold.

"Now's that style"

"Arif"

me snapped this pic,awesome right?

From there, we heads for the Statue of Liberty in France.

It's just less than 20minutes walks away from the Eiffel Tower.

Why there's an underline on my sentences above?

Then, we went to Notre Dame.

I bet everyone knows the tales of the Hunchback of Notre Dame.

It's a Cathedral with Gothic's Decorations.

We went inside.

And it was so..scary.

"Notre Dame"

We went to see some souvenirs,

and everywhere we goes,

Amin asks the price for the shirt "I heart Paris"

Almost all stores sells for 10 euro each.

tch.

Musee de Louvre is our next stop.

There, lies the Pyramides of France.

(Illuminaties)

Then,

We visited the Mosque of France.

When we got there, It was closed.

It's quite a remarkable building, built between houses.
