Beauty is everywhere and it is subjective. If i am not wrong, a famous writer said : ” Beauty is in the eyes of the person who looks at something “. Today i am going to tell about one of my experiences in this sense, hoping to receive a message from you, telling me of something similar that happened to you, in one or more places where you’ve been.
I understand that this is not exactly the right moment to talk about travels but it is also my way to wish that soon we can do it again without too much hassles, one of the best thing in life, which for me is traveling.
I suppose that for anyone, walking through Paris, it can be very easy to find him/herself surrounded by Beauty, at least for me it is so and today i am going to make a suggestion, really hoping that one day i will receive a message from someone who tells me if he/she did it and what they think.
If you go to visit ” La ville lumière ” surely you’ll go to see Notre-Dame, so when you are there, go alongside, passing by Pope John Paul 2nd statue and the delightful trees and go on the back of the Cathedral, there, facing the back of the Cathedral, on the right, there is a bridge, called Pont Saint Louis, which joins Île de la Cité with Île Saint Louis, normally there are always great street artists performing, so most probably you will have also some wonderful songs or music in the experience. Ok stop there and start to turn around on yourself, 360 degrees, slowly, wherever you look you will see Beauty !
As all the interesting tells there is a but, in this case it is the weather and a much bigger problem. To fully appreciate the experience it should be done with nice weather and the fact that the roof, sorry if a i don’t use the exact word, but i don’t know how to call it in English, the Cathedral’s roof, which was absolutely gorgeous, wonderful, has burned down lately and since then i haven’t been to Paris to see how it is now, but surely Les Français will make it amazing again, even though it will never be the same !
In general, when sometimes i did it, i had the feelings that i was assisting to an astonishing spectacle.
From there you might also go, easily because pretty close, to have one of the best ice-cream in Paris, at the maison Berthillon, trust me please, impossible to not appreciate.
Please let me know, whenever it will come to your mind, if you have or find a place where you feel as i said, i hope you understood what i meant. I haven’t had the fortune to travel the whole world, but i will go visit other fascinating cities and i would love to try your suggestions.
Thank you, let’s keep in touch !
