At each end of Le Jardin des Tuileries, the French wanted to place something spectaculaire. Also note L'Obelisque lurking in the right.
Paris always looks like it just rained, but I don't care. This is the open space in Le Jardin des Tuileries I mentioned. It's nice to be in a city where you can go somewhere to just breath and relax.
La Fontaine Saint-Michel. The statue on the top is Satan as he's being thrown from Heaven and I just imagine the sculptor imagined him falling into the fountain. I think Paris makes me think with la romanticisme.
Le Louvre from Le Jardin des Tuileries. This is what I'm talking about when I say the sun makes the grass look incredible.
Just in case you thought I became a brooding poet... this is one of my best friend's from high school and therefore yet another reason that I love Paris right now.
