Hello Steemit Friends,
As a kid, I've always wanted to see the Eiffel Tower. I was fascinated by how a structure can be standing like it does. During my grade school years I read in a trivia book that it is being held together by 2.5 million rivets. That made me all the more curious. As a young lady, I though the city of Paris to be very romantic, and now that I've been there, I just wish I can get right back with a special someone to make it all the more romantic.
In this post, I will feature some of the amazing places in I visited in my brief stay in Paris.
The Eiffel Tower
"The design of the Eiffel Tower was originated by Maurice Koechlin and Émile Nouguier, two senior engineers who worked for the Compagnie des Etablissements Eiffel after discussion about a suitable centrepiece for the proposed 1889 Exposition Universelle, a World's Fair which would celebrate the centennial of the French Revolution." Quoted from Wikipedia
Notre-Dame Cathedral

Getting Lost in Paris

My Home in Paris
Last, but certainly not the least I want to thank the staff at Hyatt Regency Paris - Charles de Gaulle — in Paris. Truly amazing hospitality.
