So yesterday afternoon, more than 6 points for supper, we set off to Emilie and Olivier's House. They sit there for a while, 7 point we take MTR to Vieux Lyon. Vieux Lyon, Lyon's old town is the seat of the famous St. John's Cathedral, on Fourvière Hill, the tramway are all here. At Valmy when saw some other sill lit a row of candles, scattered light that has come of the night looked calm and gentle. When we take MTR, immediately felt more than ever, because we are the second Valmy station is a station, generally in the evening the whole carriage is no more than 10 individuals, but yesterday it almost all the seats were filled with people. Everyone is wearing a purse, a lot of people out with your beloved dog, the children sit in their seats, it's not like the national holiday of the children is so excited and happy. The Vieux Lyon, Metro station was flooded with people — the entire evening we learned to France after most of the crowd, and Millennium night of Nanjing Road and Xujiahui comparable, we feel is Lyon all clustered into three zones of Vieux Lyon Bellecour and the municipal square, came, and saw the usual almost do not see the police and the police. But here's one more let us very bearable, because no one wants to compete with crowding, as we all move forward by order waiting in line, Lyon City Administration also arranged a large number of staff in the subway, tramway, Harbour Plaza to maintain order, it does not make me feel crowded troubled. &lt;p&gt;We first came to St. John's Cathedral, the church doors in the open layout of a big yellow big Ant, staff also climbed down to decorate it with, or in the evening's program will act as a kind of roles. &lt;/p&gt; We line up to enter the Church, which is full of people, we also went over a person spends 10 francs bought just plug in a blank sheet of paper folded into the shade of white candles, sitting in the back seat. Soon there was a young priest in white with lighted candles to long for a lit candle a. The Church front lights, I was thinking of neck look magnificent ornament, but do not know the white Red Hat priests say what, everyone stood up, Europeans a personal high horse, like I'm in China but also short stature, impassable barrier over the preceding layer to see the front sight. I had to make candles in hands, go to the priest to do mass and choir singing. The song is beautiful, two male voice singing a bright and peaceful deep hymn tunes, a group of harmonious soft female voice behind gently and, with pipe organ playing, there surprising mood clarify effects. Half an hour, people began to leave the Church, we as people went to church on the square. We know that starting from 7: 30, the crowd will depart from here, walk along the uphill driveway to the mountain of Fourvière Basilica. I saw the square is full of candlelight, the House next to the square on the window sill have lit a candle, rows of people feel Holy and warm. After a while, we started to walk to the mountain. There are some personal back speakers, each about 100 meters, you will stop reciting a segment about the Bible prayer, then everybody sing hymns and then forward, a way to see several dial such a handful of people, in their side always gathered a group of people. We are a bunch of "Pagan" didn't understand what they were saying, singing, but out of respect for religion, and we are not just whisper loudly, and those who also won't stop people together, more than they went to the mountains. Some people, it may be that the newspaper and television reporters, carrying a camera equipment, microphone or camera, shoot a photo and the camera, and interviews with people in the team. May participate in such activities is very rare in the East, they gave the camera a few times at us. Our French is still very poor, but also really not Catholic, so direct to worry that they will come to interview us, so when a girl holding a microphone asked me: "can speak French?" and I quickly responded, "only a little bit, a little bit. "Everyone smiled, laughed very kind, very happy. &lt;p&gt;After approximately 45 minutes of walking, we finally arrived at Fourvière Basilica. &lt;/p&gt; The Church was hit on the blue and silver light, looks deep secluded pure, also next to the high standing of the golden statue of the Virgin Mary and the Holy Sunglass brilliant. Because the Church's liturgy is not over yet, we were stopped at the door. For nearly half an hour, people began to put an end to mass queuing up, walked about half an hour to walk outside, it's essential for people to turn in. We handle the candles in the Church entrance candlestick, sit on the second row, ready to take a good look at a field mass. The day before Halloween I have ever visited Fourvière Basilica, at that time had to lobby the strokes, on both sides of the colourful murals that deep admiration. But the Church comparison Dim light, haven't been able to observe carefully the front of the Church. Now there countless lights burning bright light, candle lit the numerous, put the centre symbolises the Virgin Mary statues had shone resplendent, next to the pattern, sculpture shining golden light, I am amazed. Waiting for a long time, the mass hasn't started yet. We began to worry about mountain performance activities, anxious for a mass start we'll withdraw halfway will certainly not fit, so after some struggle, we decided to give up going down the Hill. So very embarrassed in full view of the left seat, slipped out of the Church, consoled to those against a wall next to the stand up seat of monks also merit a piece. When our team of six people have been dissolved, we three girls together, the three boys did not know where to run. &lt;p&gt;Wait for the cableway of overcrowding, but orderly. &lt;/p&gt; A car after we reached the top of the second car, Came to the Hill. From the Vieux Lyon Bellecour square and along the Saône River Zoo, everywhere there are Arabs pendulum carnivorous, BBQ sale last time we ate at the Arab markets clips of mutton. We do not, by and large the index finger and Emilie Juliee helplessly watched was on the phone with me. I know they mean — who have no money, looking to have 90 francs I bought for them. I smell the fragrance also have traveled, and let the Arab guy help we do three, two greedy little devil not only to clamp mutton, adding a toasted aroma overflowing of sausages, I let the LAD in three clips cake on a sausage, finally, I asked him how much money, he said: "three, mutton with sausage, 120 francs. "I'm shocked, really embarrassed smile he said:" but I only 90 francs. "He laughed, and said:" just 90 francs. "So I put in my pocket all the money out to him, the way sound:" good night. "Think of the Arab guy really knows how harmony. Domestic some businessmen in Festival overcrowding, if you run into me such customers, mostly to I called back. &lt;p&gt;We are happy to eat a fragrant mutton with cake, Bellecour square, the roads are still encountered Li Li Yu, the Forte and see what we are eating, they joke that we must be deliberately Jiang Qian, they dumped. &lt;/p&gt; Come to the square, it appears that the show has ended, people are packed with equipment and other equipment. The bronze statue of Louis XIV around happy crowd, he saw his people's descendants are so happy, must also be very comforting. We walked around Bellecour square a few laps, and so just give me a call to play together, but find that Jacqline for a long time didn't find her, call nobody answered, so I had to first take the subway to the municipal square, it is said that the municipal square of light is the most beautiful. When we just stepped off the Metro, we hear the air with a cannon, people cheered, at the time, is already a 10-point, original is Fireworks time is up. But in the Bellecour square can only see the light, but I don't see smoke, so we rushed to catch the Metro, thought to the municipal square area to see the fireworks. But 3 minutes later when we arrived at the municipal square, only to find that the Republican road on both sides of the ancient and tall buildings completely blocking our view, only to see the Republican road side sky shone the light on. We start all the way to the Moon, and the Republic of France's evening saw three Chinese girl with amazing speed and dexterity, left-right-to-bursting from their side Flash briefly. Finally we ran to the River Rhone, see air beautiful Fireworks. Bright light lit up the night sky is beautiful, colourful, although it has no domestic every day of the Beijing fireworks of scale, but in such peace and quiet of the sky, full of joy, good atmosphere, see Fireworks, still makes me feel happy life. The last field to see the Fireworks, or in 1994, 45, Daqing, Frankie and I was, sitting in the bustling big huazheng Park Lawn at Zhongshan garden setting off fireworks. Subsequent reunification, 50 anniversary, I do not know what the busy, never feel that way all the fun atmosphere. &lt;p&gt;Watching Fireworks, I found missing Emilie Juliee, we smiled and said: "had lost three, teams may not be able to reduce it." &lt;/p&gt; So we stood on a traffic light, into their necks, big eyes and look for a long time for a long time, is in the midst of the sea of found her little figure, our lungs called her name, through the crowd to keep up with her, this is called and a smile, my throat is almost lost. &lt;p&gt;We made a telephone call to Viviane, let her give us money to actually ask her out to see the hilarious. &lt;/p&gt; When Li from Pocket found a 10 francs coins, we see the side of the road there are several France girl with several table, desk with disposable cups and water bottles. I was studying them in the free water supply or sell water, a girl at our Chinese saying: "you want some tea?" we delight, not by laughing. Juliee French asked: "how much money?" she answered: "Chinese 10 francs. "Juliee in this alien suddenly hear the foreigner should speak Chinese, excited by this last 10 francs spent out, return a cup with a strong smell of water and chewing gum. The next scene is very interesting: the France girl in Chinese, I used a French, a sentence to chat about heaven, she used to work in Hubei Shashi city half a year, we mutually compliment each other in English and French, cheerfulness and parted. Beside a playing music of edges stay for a while, we go back to the Bellecour square and Viviane. &lt;p&gt;Full of joy to the crowd, the subway A line cannot be directly underground to the D-line, but must return to the ground from the D-line entry and then went in, it was tedious, we finally and Viviane and Victor victory at the baggage claim area, you have approximately 12: 30. &lt;/p&gt; We walked for a while on the square, decided to go to the Vieux Lyon bubble. &lt;p&gt;Usual number of Vieux Lyon reception is foreign to tourists, quiet. &lt;/p&gt; The first is full of people today, all the bars are full of people, we try to into a bar. There are only the most narrow aisle can walk, many people do not have the table, just sit on a stool against the wall drink the wine, we render 5 individuals. We in Vieux Lyon slate consensus.She two trips, watched a juggler will two lighted the stick in the body dance to dance to. Indeed, their technology and we used to see in the country of acrobatic troupe even folk artists than are poor far, always keep the stick fell to the ground or yourself, but we still he kept as they applauded. Shop around for a while, weWalk into a small restaurant, one a glass of beer – although not a pure bars, but the atmosphere and the bar is quite similar, as is the bubble. In question for a long time, many with McCain a pass, the waitress came very politely said to close, we realized that pay out. &lt;p&gt;The outside cold pressing, I wore a pair of jeans, cashmere sweaters and coats that are invading the body's cold shivering with cold. &lt;/p&gt; Come to St. John's Cathedral, there are a lot of people are listening on several people playing side dancing. We also jumped up with rhythm, even if not fun, and you can also have your own warm. In addition to music is not so noisy outside, probably down some domestic disco atmosphere — jump better, worse, know, do not know, a large dance together. &lt;p&gt;Jump up, your body also warm up, we went to the River Saone. &lt;/p&gt; You have 2 o'clock, Metro and bus business is finished. I know it would be interesting to find Emilie a bar or dance hall simply sit on the 5 o'clock MTR commenced business again, but I don't have any money, Viviane doesn't speak I am sorry to say where to spend, then walk along the River Saone is recommended. In my lead after approximately 45 minutes of walking, it seems that all of a sudden, we found the home of Emilie is just before eyes. After this great night of tossing about, we are all tired, but this is really a fun night. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-6017164082593227191?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/6017164082593227191/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/05/lyon-france-hanukkah-diary-study-abroad.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/6017164082593227191'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/6017164082593227191'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/05/lyon-france-hanukkah-diary-study-abroad.html' title='Lyon – France Hanukkah diary study abroad'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-2269721489692607482</id><published>2011-05-20T01:20:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-20T01:20:21.974-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>Bad taste-PEAR--day one</title><content type='html'>France Paris 6: 00 a.m. daylight saving time arrives at Paris Charles de Gaulle International Airport. The plane of the first desire is to breathe the air of Paris, only to find that cool feeling is so like Beijing. Airport facilities are very delicate and full of industrial design of mechanical sense, feel different from Shanghai. &lt;p&gt;In order to look for in a foreign country, I pay particular attention to the look of it, the airport cargo truck drivers, between clean cleansing, customs officer, Office of the unknown is what foreigners "crowded" ... &lt;/p&gt; Everything in the I hinted that I was being in a foreign land, but I do like looking at a foreign film and couldn't get into their world---maybe flying has people spend time on the trip, but also took away the feeling of traveling from one out of the box is another piece of land, this magic I can't immediately into the role. &lt;p&gt;BERNARD (Bernard) is waiting for us outside, he was an easy-going old man, early in the morning from Brie Brittany came to meet us. &lt;/p&gt; Everyone with a curious and eager for new things on the road of desire, from the airport to the hotel along the scenic but inevitably makes people disappointed, this is my first impression. Eat a meal and not afraid to flattered by the BERNARD buffet breakfast with our marching to the Seine River, walk in the street, there are a variety of colour variety of hair color of the stranger, small shop entrance sit relaxed people, a cup of coffee and watch the traffic of pedestrians. We had three Metro---with a ticket, near the Eiffel Tower, Paris Metro is very old, very simple but very convenient; metro network is extending in all directions, to. &lt;p&gt;Finally to the Eiffel Tower (Eiffel Tower), all at the same time said: "is not very high?!" (Fortunately, old Bay do not understand), the Eiffel Seine side stand, feeling is not impressive, but watch out is very old, today there is no log Tower. &lt;/p&gt; The river Seine is clean, no garbage on the River with a brief discussion of the Green, the other side of the building and we arrived in La Villette is located in the community completely different, clean and tidy and with strong European style; the bridge over the Seine has a lot of character, each building has a different decoration of his bridge or sculpture, or purposely, or ancient quiet, or simple modern, to add a lot of the Seine. &lt;p&gt;On board the yacht, we are ready to tour the sights of the Strait. &lt;/p&gt; Yacht design beautifully, transparent roof and walls formed an integral whole, you can pan after another to form open space. Beautiful tour with us do not understand but very useful in French to the tourists about the Strait of civility and legends of allusion. Both sides of the landscape and how much to my surprise, Notre Dame, the Louvre, the French Academy and so on, are all familiar sights, have a television, the magazine read multiple times. They are very reluctant to stand on the shore, quietly exudes elegant incense; visitors, clean, and the domestic many famous attractions of impetuous and messy. &lt;p&gt;In Paris a Pocket big circle, back to the starting point of the Effeil, old Bay and take us into the Metro network, now everybody's destination is old Bay apartments in Paris. &lt;/p&gt; Out from the subway, old Bay belt we visited Notre Dame, Notre-Dame of the facade was renovated, so no pictures. Went into the darkness empty Inner Temple, cold air with wax oil burning smell upheavals, superior Dome, splendid incomparable praying painted glass Windows, table row rows of flickering candlelight, people face a solemn expression are enriched by my mind on the Bell character and beauty of the girl's masterpiece, so plug. &lt;p&gt;Out of the Notre Dame de Paris, they started walking Street channeling lane. &lt;/p&gt; Along the way, the numerous small restaurants, bistro, rare are all decorated elegant and rich flavor. I walked past the eyes constantly to shop in sight, from small small door look into the depths of duplicating courtyard is so attractive, sitting in a BAR and a handful of people and carefree. There are many wine shops sell, door with rattan baskets and works of big rough crate, which naturally is a wine bottles "France." Shop furnishings are neatly exquisite, diverse wine rack on the merchandise without exception is wine, but the prices of the different packaging, but also very uneven, us amateur, buy a bottle of wine and a dozen francs for thousands of francs wines is almost the same worth and pride. Flower shop where are the most beautiful along the most beautiful scenery, is also my favorite place to visit, where you can see many domestic seen species, in the form of packaging is also more free and pay attention to environmental protection, multiple paper packaging. And roadside flower stall is even more simple, often even the packaging is province, little one, the most common is the kind of purple white white very simple little flower, a lot of ties together in carton, lush lush. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-2269721489692607482?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/2269721489692607482/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/05/bad-taste-pear-day-one.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/2269721489692607482'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/2269721489692607482'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/05/bad-taste-pear-day-one.html' title='Bad taste-PEAR--day one'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-8954181961673685483</id><published>2011-05-20T01:19:00.004-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-20T01:20:01.212-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>Bad taste-PEAR--day 2</title><content type='html'>The next morning wake up slack and yunwei sense has left me, opening Windows, noise immediately sifted, packed into the busy traffic, street, Street across from the small cafe has long put furniture left in the open doorway. Supporting the Chinese supermarket, we ate breakfast-familiar--in soup with milk rot, downstairs and old Bay converge. &lt;p&gt;Morning, in Bernard's Office started a more formal work (work situation, I would say that lovely lunch) say Chinese love at the dinner table about the business, it seems better than the West. &lt;/p&gt; Entered the Museum curator private restaurant, but is a long dining table has been neatly in place cutlery, one wearing a white uniform waiter waiting at the door. France's English is not how clever, even they have a tendency to reject speaks English, perhaps they are very proud of the language of the motherland, disdain and our non-English speaking countries as very positive for people to learn English, English. Dinner with a total of 10 people, the waiter a busy busy back before as we all: pour wine, side dishes, heat exchanger and fork, clean up your desktop ... We need to do is wait for him to do a good thing, just say "MERSI" (thank you). First the white wine and appetizer was the first dish: Fried Goose liver and pizza. Very few foods in a "huge" dish, it seems to be not so empty, or to add some color, cooks in Goose liver poured around a few road I do not know what sauces, and I don't know of fruit and vegetables dressed a little, much to watch, entranced, was nice. Foreigners are fast and quick to put personal dish eat clean-shaven, we have to all pieces, cross and fork does not worry about the pizza, but very delicious Goose liver. The first dish and second dish is very long transition times, foreigners are off limits to chat, we may use their French mutual irony to irony (expressions on guess). Our Oriental guest, only Liu Jianping can freely side dining and they talked, others just 70% of the mind on the pizza. The second dish is fish and rice, in fact, I'm not sure whether you should call it rice, is a similar black sticky rice or cumin stuff, they call it White Rice, there are special fragrance. After the dessert, ice cream, and finally, coffee. Coffee Cup is very small, and internally used to drink liquor and cups, coffee is concentrated, bitter than traditional medicine, and not with milk. Remembered with great enamel cup bubble a large cylinder Nestle coffee feeling, really interesting. &lt;p&gt;Restraint and requiring the first meal! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Afternoon visited Laviettle Park, this is a very focused on environmental design of public space. &lt;/p&gt; From environmental facilities, guidance systems to essays, children's play facilities, design of the handicapped. No one has not been carefully planning and design. Especially enjoyed the entire park consists of a simple and not monotonous spatial sculpture series, if the Park is a chess board, the unified style and unique piece of sculpture is red. They follow certain rules in the Park, as colorful and body weight and in the case of a building, hidden in the green trees or independence rather broad square corner has a very good visual effects and environmental organizations. Many environmental sketches have been seen in the book, like a giant bicycle, like being buried in the ground, only to reveal a stepping, small half wheel and half cushion, and that with a small Bell car put inclined inclined to point to the sky. Children in the car parts climb climbing Afar. The Park has plenty of space, high and low level ground, bridge tunnel, wavy ground processing, omnipresent sculpture you unknowingly already in a sculpture, as others in the eyes of the King. Even you can put the entire Park as a sculpture. &lt;p&gt;After a small break, we map pointing to the famous Arc de Triomphe, above, means of transport is, of course, Metro, now we have a Metro weekly pass, take the subway is not dead, but also wish to use it more to several places. &lt;/p&gt; Arc de Triomphe is located in the city centre, is the intersection of several road, and its axis is the consistency of the Avenue Champs. Champs, French: Champs-Eylsees, is Paris's most famous and luxurious shopping street, the first sight, width up to 100 meters of the chestnut Ave. towering tree to the pregnant store hidden and can clearly see the open-air cafes and restaurants, visitors or more, and Nanjing Road commercial Street in the lively scenes can be different, in a way also reflects the differences between Western and Eastern business cultures. We from one end of the Champs to Arc de Triomphe, a long way, looking at the Arc de Triomphe from door to door, finally became like the Guinness in the shampoo, the lens looked up from the artistry, look at the arch internal spectacular carved box, experience the essence of the French culture. It began, drizzle in blue-gray sky background on the Arc de Triomphe on hero wild statue Moran, my mood to the Scout leaders and also change blows, it is likely to affect the environment. &lt;p&gt;Dinner is in the vicinity of the hotel called "Fortuna" in the restaurant to eat, the boss is in Paris for several decades in the restaurant, our entire meal, there is no other than customers patronize us, boss complains to us doing business is difficult, nearly 50% of revenue, this site is not good. &lt;/p&gt; In Paris, in a restaurant eating is Western cooking, just some of the features of the dishes like Chinese food, in order to we, the boss original installed in six dish dishes in a dish, try as we create the atmosphere of Chinese food. Out of the restaurant, we slowly walked back to the hotel, took a look at the nearby shops.

This happened to a tourist train had, at the corner there is a blue shirt of middle-aged man making a gesture "command" small train traffic. I am so behind the small train, think this must be the tourist routes. &lt;p&gt;I didn't think I was on a small Museum entrance photo, just the shirt man stopped me up. &lt;/p&gt; With poor English asked me to passpart and produce police documents. I heard Paris thief, it will be important documents will stay in the hotel. I and he explained a long time, but he seems not to understand. At this point I was not the end, because I do not know in the streets without passports abroad. &lt;p&gt;This time, he suddenly said MONEY, BANK. &lt;/p&gt; I think he is, let me not on the street to go to Exchange Bank. He motioned to check my bag, and asked if I did drugs. I quickly shake waving said certainly did not. &lt;p&gt;I don't know how to do a good job, I put the package to him. &lt;/p&gt; My back is a big bag, there are a lot of messy things, umbrella, coat, notebook, guidebooks and more. He turned over, or side of the ask what drugs, I still did nothing but have no explanation, but it seems that he was to follow. The entire process to my feeling is that we exchange is very difficult and confusing. But I told him I am Chinese, he is also on the radio a few words, a word of French I hear that encounters a Chinese ... &lt;p&gt;Suddenly he took out my wallet, turned up, there are not many with cash. &lt;/p&gt; He also repeated his earlier money bank. He pulled out my credit card. Later, some I remember and fuzzy. It seems he asked many times drugs, money, and finally, he asked me to tell him the password. I was also, and he argues that the "password to tell you, you can withdraw money? this is my private stuff, can't tell you" he's very impatiently took out a book, write a lot of things, he handed me, asked me to write. I don't know how to write to him. Even more ridiculous is that my digital writing is not clear, he also and I double check. And then on the radio a few hanging la says a pass. A he will give me my wallet, cash again, repeat the money bank, the money game inside cover, wallet, deeply into my package, and pack all la, motioned to me to go. &lt;p&gt;At that time because I have a pen in his shirt pocket, I motioned him back to me, this time he suddenly picked up the phone, and I waved like motioned to me to wait, and then start with intercom, u-turn away at first I thought he had what urgent things to the past, but now my head already feel something wrong. &lt;/p&gt; But I do not know what is wrong ... ... &lt;p&gt;So I Pull Pack, edge more brisk walk behind him, when I took out my wallet, discover credit cards no, this is realized. &lt;/p&gt; I ran after him in the past, they could shout, vanishing la!! &lt;p&gt;When I head a drone. &lt;/p&gt; I ran to the nearest shops, to help give me a call back to China reported missing, but the shop said phone cannot play. I've come down from the heights, just can't seem to find a public phone. Later also asked the scenic spot, where can I find the police, they were surprised to see me, that she didn't know. Finally ran to the street, is a public phone, however, there is no coin, with card or credit card. Saw a black man on the phone, I said I have a very urgent matters, you can tell me how to call you? he is very enthusiastic to lend to me. However, due to an oversight on my part, I do not know the credit card phone, find a family for help, the results were in a while, actually put the card play. Then I felt really really helpless. &lt;p&gt;Black brother kindly steered me to a Chinese restaurant in the open, said that the Chinese people will help you. &lt;/p&gt; He even gave me his phone card money do not. The kind people I took photos, we look at how friendly black brother Ah. &lt;p&gt;The most maddening is that when I put the case and the Chinese people say he is relentless in Chinese, we here call can't go to China, you will no longer ignored me!!!, I was the cold heart. &lt;/p&gt; I go abroad, specifically call the Bank increases credit limit, many months of salary. Actually hanging out. &lt;p&gt;No way, I've made that compatriots on the store, to continue forward, found a small small hotel, rushed in to say that I have to pay for a call back to China. &lt;/p&gt; At that time that France is enthusiastic guy asked me, has also repeatedly taught me not to get excited, to calm. This can be solved. As a result I hit n multiple calls is not into credit card loss, because we provide my number will not be able to access from France. At this time, France man help me phone to international credit card because I remember that I am using master card. But the credit card to my quote Bank English name. Damn, the China Merchants Bank say? they help me out all the banks in China, read me. But I'm not sure. Finally found a card Center, help me to go through their centres received the China Merchants Bank card. &lt;p&gt;From card fraud, loss reporting, period experience 1 and a half hours. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Prior to this I also commissioned in Shanghai's relatives helped me loss reporting, but she said credit card said to my loss. &lt;/p&gt; I 'd! &lt;p&gt;The thing that gave me great lessons. &lt;/p&gt; The following is what I have to remind you. &lt;p&gt;1, remember that your bank English name and foreign access phone number. &lt;/p&gt; The best and then write your card number. &lt;p&gt;More than 2, the &lt;/p&gt;Information with you wherever you go. But not a purse. &lt;p&gt;3, if you have urgent things to the phone, small hotel can pay to play long distance. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;4, do not think that the police you're afraid of him. &lt;/p&gt; I think he has no right to search the package, deal with him back to the police station. It's the police wouldn't be so unreasonable. &lt;p&gt;Although there are seen before a similar story, but when they meet, they cope with the problem. &lt;/p&gt; The road over a long period of time a person is not, think also quite terrible. If a person, especially girls, it is best to follow the crowd go really remote places. &lt;p&gt;I put the deception of the road and two kind people's photos are posted up in the hope that we will not suffer! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Fraud path) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Kind of a hotel desk) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Kind-hearted Negro brothers) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-8376134441884974362?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/8376134441884974362/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/05/i-was-in-france-who-cheated-credit-card.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/8376134441884974362'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/8376134441884974362'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/05/i-was-in-france-who-cheated-credit-card.html' title='I was in France who cheated credit card-we must guard against'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-8536413863404571102</id><published>2011-05-20T01:19:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-20T01:19:52.809-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>19 days by Italian family tours-itinerary and Raiders</title><content type='html'>I feel tourism should be a very personal things, so chose tours. Very often, in addition to their own places of parents of those details is the journey deeper experience. My trip to a large extent refer to the following two books. Whereas the emergence of the Internet, which greatly reduces the difficulty of tours, all information, all subscriptions, you can easily get things done online. Reference books: while network gonglue many, but not sufficiently comprehensive and professional, with a good travel book is very necessary. There are many kinds of travel books, I know there Australia compared to the famous Lonely Planet series, of France's Michelin series, Japan's traveled the world series. Personal feeling LP text too much too small, relatively few pictures; Michelin map function not strong enough, not enough convenient; retrieved sites went global series plates, maps, attractions easily find, it is better to use reference tool. I go out with a Michelin of the France classic tour "and a" go global "in Italy. Hotel: in France, I chose the IBIS. This is a all over France, Germany, Spain and other European countries economy chain hotel. Practice shows that the general location of this hotel are good enough, enough comfortable room layout, the price is quite reasonable. In Italy, I chose the BOOKING. COM Web site of the hotel. This is a global professional reservation network, the company on the stock market, the choice of the hotel are numerous, site pages clearly, convenient map features enough, there are scores of reference, so everyone can choose to your heart's hotel. Web site does not collect the reservation fee is only charged the Commission with the hotel. Traffic: traffic is recommended to use in Europe, as Europe rail railway is very developed, can take you to almost all you want to go. As regards the need to buy European rail coat-tail, depending on personal itinerary. In my case, for example, I need to take bus number of times not too many, spanning time and long-tail but not cost-effective purchases. Therefore my train ticket is now bought a one-way ticket. The station staff understand written English, there is no need to worry about language problems. The following describes a simple itinerary and basic expenses for reference. D1: Hong Kong direct flight to Paris, stroke 13 hours, CPA, noon-2: 50PM, local time is 9: Charles de Gaulle airport 35PM arrives. Chose direct, mainly want to hurry up and save on the cost of physical, price is too high and more than 8000 block. two-way Physical good comrades can choose to transfer two of the flight, you can save around two thousand pieces, at the cost of total trip may take 24 hours or more. D2: Paris City Centre. All the way from the Arc de Triomphe, the Champs Elysees to the South, the size of the Palace, the Concorde, konduy Le Lee Gardens, the Louvre, Seine, Notre Dame de Paris. The entire trip is a little long, but one that is first days, no questions on basic physical strength, because the latitude of Paris, close to the ten o'clock at night dark genius, so you can use quite a lot of time. Arc de Triomphe if not top, does not require charging, so this day ticket costs. Paris I currently know of the most developed underground subway system, scattered on the floor there were 14 subway lines (MEtRO) and 5 light rail (RER). One-way ticket 1.7 Europe, regardless of the length of long distance suburban areas. Individuals can purchase a week ticket itinerary or ten times, with prices more favorable. In principle, Paris is not resolved you can walk, Metro is a must. D3: day tour of the Louvre, in the evening visit to the Eiffel Tower, after sitting in Alma Wharf Seine Cruise Tour. Light reflecting from the Seine will make you memorable. Cost: Louvre adult 9.5 Europe, 18 years of age free of charge; the Eiffel Tower 2nd tier adult 8, 1 euro, children 6.5 Europe; cruise 11 euro/person. D4: Versailles. This is France's most luxurious Palace, a must see. In addition you can visit the Royal Palace and King Suites, there is also a beautiful backyard garden and two tRIANON garden. Therefore needs a whole day is sufficient. Fee: 7 Euro/round trip; Versailles tickets 25 euro (including size garden 6 euro), 18 years of age free Palace tickets, but inevitably gardens tickets 6 euro. D5: Paris Disneyland. Here is the Disney parks and Disney movie studios Park, our day into the two Park, practice has shown that: 1 the two Park time is a little catch up, if you run into many more is too late. Cost: Euro/person round-trip 13.4; two Park 67 Euro/person. D6: morning went to Monte Thurgau region (Montmartre), tour of the Sacred Heart Church, white Hill square, you can also freely between the surrounding residential walk and see. Afternoon Malai district (Marais), visit the Picasso Museum, the Georges Pompidou Centre; the Latin night watch and eat dinner. One day walking area is helpless, because of insufficient time, and we want to go too much more time in fact if! one day, you can schedule slowly around the Latin quarter, here is the old part of Paris, a life, is also very pleasant. Cost: Picasso Museum refurbishment closed to 2012; Pompidou 11 European adults, 18 years of age free of charge. Because of the time, there is no time Olympic Museum. Alas, this is the day short heart long. D7: from Paris to Lyon railway station nice, full five hours. Arrival time is a nice 15 o'clock, after a short break at the hotel, there is enough time to sneak around the sea, slowly walk to the beautiful port, is the Golden sunshine Cape onto Earth, beautiful port abject beauty. Cost: Paris-Nice train 96.3 Euro/person. D8: Monaco one day. Claims is the world's rich holiday places in Monaco in Nice of nearby just stopped by to visit. Built on a cliff of the underwater world, the luxury of the Palace, are worth a visit. From high up on a cliff top overlooking the blue of the Eastern Mediterranean and the beautiful scenery of the fascinating Hong Kong, Monaco. Cost: Euro round trip train ticket 6.8 Monaco; the Palace tickets Tickets for Europe, 8 3 euro for children. D9: nice walk a day. Nice old city can simply walk in and see, Nicholas Orthodox Church has a lot of character, Eastern Mediterranean Palace near the beach is very popular, very Eastern Mediterranean. NiceAV Jean Medecin Street-shops, there are a Lafayette. Nice is not like Paris, its town size can walk, of course, if you do not want to walk, there are small bus, train. Nice is the kind of place where you can spend time, don't need destinations, find a place to sit. D10: nice to go to Venice, the way in Monaco, Ventimiglia Stazi and Milano Milan interchange, full of about eight hours. Arrived at five o'clock in the afternoon, before it's too late to Santa Rosalía square one. From Paris to Nice, from Nice to go to Venice, actually is from North to South and from South to North, itinerary is a little detours, but because I want to exit from Rome, had to go to Italy, then fold in the North to the South. Cost: train tickets 62 Euro/person. D11: morning and afternoon visit Venice and MURANO island, five o'clock in the afternoon, departure to Florence. Venice nearby there are several small islands, have their own characteristics, one of the most famous MURANO island is where the production of glass products internationally. Another island called Burano, allegedly also very characteristic, but because of the daily boat class is very small, we schedule, had to give up. Personal feeling Venice very beautiful, very much worth a visit!: Venice 24 hour ticket 18 Euro/person; MURANO glass museum tickets 10.5 Europe (a little). D12: Florence city tour. Starting from the central station, the new Cathedral, Church of our Lady of the flowers, Medina lease family Hall, all the way to San Marco Church, the Virgin Mary Annunciation Church, children's Welfare Institute, then back to the waltz of the Madonna with the square of the Republic's SIGNY Rio Plaza, along the Arno River back to the hotel. Near Medina lease family is a new market, there are many stalls you can buy genuine leather and leather goods, scarves and small remembrance; Republic square side are noble shopping district, the famous shops are everywhere; wechiau bridge is a series of Goldsmith. On the way to eat at all, very convenient. D13: train to visit the Tower in Pisa. Pisa, not far from the city of Buddha, about an hour by train, the ticket is OPEN, basically to go with. Pizza in addition to the Tower, there is almost no other place to visit, so generally half day is sufficient. Afternoon return to Florence we arranged shopping time. To Pisa railway station opposite the platform after the can bus, a Europe that ticket to the station's smoke shop purchase, called torre Tower station. Cost: no fee not on top of the tower. Personal feeling of fact on the tower is not very necessary to queue very troublesome, and looks after and not many scenery you can see, also caused the burden of the tower. So we're only in the following photos, purchase shopping around, they headed home! ticket to return 11.6 Europe. D14: Siena Xiye that day. Sita bus you can reach by SIENA, time 1 hour 10 minutes. Siena is one of the world heritage town and a town area, tuosikana visitors more. The Cathedral Church of our Lady of the flowers than it favourably, blue and white marble interior decoration of the church there is a photo taken solemn mesmerizing. Cost: bus ticket 7.1 Europe, Siena Cathedral full ticket 10 euro. D15: San Gimignano San Gimignano one day. This is a very unique historical town, a city of beautiful Tower. Here you train, the train can only sit Ponggibonsi, then buy the bus ticket at the station to San Gimignano. The whole is an hour by train and 20 minutes by bus. Here is an itinerary design experience to share: we are because the hotel set in Florence, so every night to come back the next day, then go out. If the SIENA and San Gimignano row together visit, may route. Because the two towns are in the interim, the two Ponggibonsi, City between the bus interchange. If an earlier visit to a city that afternoon and then visit another city, time is also acceptable arrangements, or between the night and the next day to go to another city, this trip even more easy. In addition, it is recommended that you do not have conditions of comrades who participate in our local private tour, so you can see more real tuosikana of pastoral scenes, just this fare is not cheap shot, approximately to 100 euro per person. We have two points of tuosikana tour, a private group tour is not participating in, or in small spell, and second, we went to two days just rain, don't see the most beautiful scenery!: Florence to Ponggibonsi, train ticket round trip 10.40 Europe, San Gimignano Ponggibonsi, bus tickets for each journey 1.85 Europe.

Like to see a long time never, in the heart but a long lingering fear of former lovers, Nova Scotia has different God, he would hurt ... Saw, saw, so you now. &lt;p&gt;If you like you can walk along both sides of the stone steps go down, go to the shore. &lt;/p&gt; I'm so close to the River Seine, beginning from the Saint Michel bridge, direction towards the Louvre gradually, imperceptibly, floating in the sky from the rain. I always go a few steps, break down and have a look, Tokushima, Notre Dame has gradually been looming behind me. The Paris city only because of the war, disputes, or even a modern urban development and change of lovely little island, I do not know how people live, where you can hear the music of Chopin? &lt;p&gt;A few metres in front of a small Pier, sporadic-Park with various types of boats, end high mast, a greasy old man holding a hammer knocking. &lt;/p&gt; At this time, little light appears in a plug for the River, the left bank of Ossetia Museum and the Louvre cross flicker on the right bank. I found a bench to sit down, just on the opposite bank of the estuary Osei beautiful clock, the clock back seems to have a figure, just sit around and do not want to. Since I left Shanghai the moment seems to be all sorrow and happiness will come away with the Airbus 340. Spatio-temporal transposition, people really can temporarily forget all troubles, but remain in the care of the home that you wanted, then come back, only to find care original is self-righteous fantasy.

Z woman married to a member of France's bankers, live close to the Arc de Triomphe near a small street, the street door locks are invariably, the lobby is large, but very small elevator remains. The door to the apartment the room doors are highly significant, room ceiling, let us live used low housing people feel uncomfortable, do not bear that out, Kuang unbearably. Fengshui also said that excessive exclusion, easy to disperse human essence, this may not be suitable for foreigners. Visited France house down in the second, and asked to the exact address of the Museum may have hit count me in her arms grass Hare, an act of hypocrisy. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Base MUI Museum is always want to go, but the real France style "but in any case this was stumped, corresponds with reality: not a distance book marked it is the nearest subway station Rambuteau, and awnings skin du is the same, but in the vicinity but can not find, regardless of the map, or on-site. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Z said: outta sight, base MUI, on the edge of my house. Today is too late, I tell you the MTR station, here should be the Iéna. She pointed to the Iéna station said that here, sure you can find. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Today's trip: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;① come out from the Hall, in the morning to the nearest station → M10 Ségur of Sèvres Babylone for M12 → Solférino Osei Museum. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;② from Musée d ' Orsay sat RER c line-Pont de I ' Alma station, walk to the base MUI Museum. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;③ I é n a take M9 → Franklin D.

Buy a ticket to enter the Hall was overcrowded. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Osei Museum, close to the Seine, a Chinese specification and presentation, should be free, but the latter do not quite understand the instructions, or you do not want to stay too long, it missed its idea. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; And the front door as the train station, Paris train station is also located in the city centre, and later migration, making the old railway station into a chicken, idle from 1940 to 1986. All of a sudden one day train station was born into Ossetia Museum. Do not know because the former railway station identity, or modification of design, high above the showroom floor in three of the dome, not only make this gallery has open, and the light is good, can fully enjoy the most works with natural light. In the book at the Museum of said to collection 19, 20th century Impressionist paintings, but also comprehensive, even the furniture, stage design has. Because of the time and the body, only on the layer to select several galleries around, anyway, I did also for painting, is posing. Although it is a holiday, but with a group of children to school teachers really many, occupy the entire wall paintings, teachers and kids are sat on the ground ... &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;From Osei out already in the afternoon, subway map, from the Orsay Musée d ' RER line C of the SAT to Pont de I ' Alma station, underground walk to the Alma Marceau for M9 → Iéna, seems to be a quick subway RER, like Beijing's suburban bus has a variety of extensions. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; I know a bit more difficult, as it will go up to people who ask, ask, not reluctantly took a few points, simply from the Pont de I ' Alma station on the ground out of the station walk, I'll go with reference to a well prepared, but the good news is that over a bridge, not far away. Passing the map Japan built in front of the Museum of modern art, is the base MUI, which is quiet in a small corner, there are very few cars pass, but crossing the street, but multiple connections to a staggering — nine, and there is also a building on positive across the street, or almost half of St, i.e. in a semicircle on the distribution of the nine at the gates of the base MUI! in Clip for two Street near the tip of building end, high above the high level, without a door on the rest of the note on Tuesday. Gatekeeper firmly forbid me to step back, despite the close proximity of the exhibit hall, also had to give up. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With sadness to leave base MUI, still take the subway, Franklin D.

European Inn &lt;p&gt;Already heard of France's Eurostar train can reach 400 km/h, but also particularly comfortable, therefore deliberately choose the train from Paris to Avignon (Air France flight from Paris to have the original airport to Avignon airport, approximately 140 euros). &lt;/p&gt; Go to Avignon in Paris Lyon railway station, take the city to the South of France, a common type of trains and the TGV. Common type of takes about 5-6 hours, 40-60 euros, and the TGV about 2.5 hour, 60-100 euros. Basically, from morning till evening for an hour each interval is a class, intermediate stop multiple stations, there are intermediate stops, in ticketing office booklet written very clearly, Avignon is Paris-Marseille between stations. TGV basically from 5: 00-10: 00 in the evening have a car, divided into peak and off-peak periods, morning and evening is a non-peak period, the price will be cheaper to buy a return ticket and discount. The local railway companies also often issued a coupon, Conference meeting Group also give me a mail, it is cheaper to buy a return ticket to buy one-way, i.e. do not enjoy preferential treatment. In Lyon railway station has many automated ticket machine, insert the card directly online and choose what you need to train and then printed. Also provided with artificial ticket window, in a black worker, I bought in window 2 point of the train, 88 euros (I think probably more expensive one), as a result of unsure backhaul, therefore no coupons! &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(TGV Lyon train station) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The TGV train station are open, not like China's railway station needs to get in, and for leading wicket boarding, there is no one to do these things, but in the Hall is equipped with the Help window, great e-cards (similar to the airport of transforming machine) just keep scrolling, shows a train number, go to the venue as well as the departure time. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Platform on the rest area, ticketing areas on the edge of the railway station at any time after the bus. Approximately two or so, I take the TGV has arrived, because no one ticket, I was preparing to direct. But I saw many people next to a yellow machine, take a ticket, and then click the "pop" sound, get tickets before you get on the train, I went to try and try again, it was automatically ticket machine, it will play on the travel dates and times. Note: be sure to check, because although none of the tickets on the platform, but the conductor will be traveling on their way to pick up, if you find no ticket or tickets no ticket fines (this seems to be not very fair to foreigners because no instructions tell must check, and the automatic ticket machine for the first time visitor, France is also very difficult to know what it is, perhaps the majority rely on personal France consciously). Entire open station seems easy evasion because, get off nobody pipe, but it is best not to do so, from Paris to Avignon train conductor checked once, but time was not a person I am. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Open the station platform) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;TGV from the outside look, very nice, very clean and the whole car (a car to stop someone responsible for cleaning the body), internal, and now Shanghai-Beijing trains of two-seat compartment, is the double-row four one-way seats, with a few-headed seats, small desk plate can be collapsed and folded, decorative and approaching aircraft interiors. &lt;/p&gt; Other nothing, do not provide food, music and TV. &lt;p&gt;TGV run speed too almost 300 km/hour, from Paris to Avignon almost 800-900 km, which is equivalent to the distance from Shanghai to Beijing, just 2.5 hour arrived, from Shanghai to Beijing to sit through train takes about 12 hours. &lt;/p&gt; TGV makes France become very small, most from the South to the North, I estimate that 5-6 hours, the key is that tell it basically covered the train mostly in big cities. Such high speeds, rare is it's smooth and quiet. In China one day train ride, we often go to bed at night when you can feel the body shaking, ear is box stalls in box stalls of steel cabinet with wheels of collision, the train to sleep it was quite a pain. Very quiet on the TGV also basic feel shaking, I observed the feeling of Rails, it is very common, and we almost the tracks of the subgrade are alike, but I just don't understand why their trains can run so fast. &lt;p&gt;Through double Brown window, I appreciate the way rural scenery of France, gradually gone to sleep, but my heart still very nervous Miss station (stop). &lt;/p&gt; About figured was the conductor for half an hour, I wake up from sleep when I open the "confused eyes, who, woke me up!" , A uniformed man, Jack miles Kuala's told me that the French, who next to to curious glances at me (a Chinese man, wearing a casual, relaxed T shirt + casual jackets, trousers, a pair of sacks is used, but also for leisure is a look of confusion). I guess he is the ticket, he looked at tickets left. Since then haven't slept, nobody and I Exchange, I could only stare at the vehicle window, also saw a piece of wood is row fetching BMX bicycles, reminds me of the tour de France, France landscape is good. &lt;p&gt;2.5 hours soon passed, and the horn sounds, and a bunch of French, but heard a familiar name "Avignon" I know I had. &lt;/p&gt; Avignon TGV station of Lyon Station also clean than, clean many to see pictures you will know that it is hard to like this is the railway station. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(TGV Avignon train station) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(TGV Avignon train station photo) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One day to two cities in France, Paris is Ukrainian somber weather, but here is a crisp, Avignon's days are clear days, the people of Avignon! good like the station to see clean skies with a few cloud, the mood was very good, but I will stay for 4 days trip to a depth &lt;/p&gt;Tour, the happy departure towards the final destination, Avignon on foot! &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(2006, October 2, the day is: Avignon clear days, the people's good like Avignon) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-4660768843077132114?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/4660768843077132114/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/05/lone-france-4-european-inn.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/4660768843077132114'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/4660768843077132114'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/05/lone-france-4-european-inn.html' title='Lone France-(4) the European Inn'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-8334059962701475690</id><published>2011-05-07T08:34:00.003-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-07T08:34:55.881-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>European Tour 2 – Paris romantic feelings</title><content type='html'>July 31, Saturday, fine afternoon 14: 17 minutes, and trains arrive Paris North Station. Get off to find the ticket counter, for me, online, 5 days later a train ticket for Paris to Amsterdam. In all, this is not done well, the United Kingdom United Kingdom train ticket online tickets arrive after you select the right of the station, self-service check out tickets just fine, very convenient, but European rail tickets will have the tickets at the counter. Buy tickets for many of them also, for a team, we turn to the reservation and the credit card when booking online hand, soon replaced four like airline tickets, train tickets, on a date-time trips, OK, no problem. Train ticket for Paris to Amsterdam, I was in the top clause www.sncf.com. Previously have searched Netherlands Railways website, and found out the ticket is cheaper than the former one website, but cannot pay by credit card. I heard that there is a foreign credit card chip, unlike the magnetic stripe of a credit card is the US, some Web sites do not accept our credit card. But do not know whether it is for this reason. Anyway, SNCF may provide on this site just fine (English pages). However, our fare compare two adults because with a child's sake (my son is 11 years old), so we both fares or discounts, 61 euro per person, my son is children's tickets (12 years old) 15 euro, but my daughter can only provide youth tickets (12-25 years old), but the most expensive, 62 euro, the total is 199 euro. Pick up tickets, to go out looking for rental to the hotel. We in Paris on 5 days, 4 days booked a hotel near the Eiffel Tower, the last day of the old rules, to the North Station, go days take a train to Amsterdam. The preceding four-day stay in the Hotel Alma Mesnil, called: is in Ludlow Khadro (trocadero) nearby. Go walk 10 minutes to the summer Temple, and from there to see the Eiffel Tower the best scenery. The hotel is quite old, the room has a fireplace, a large living room, a spacious four, bathroom or separation of the two rooms, 140 euro for one night, I feel that lived in Paris for the House or value for money. Put your luggage, go go straight to the Eiffel Tower. Summer Temple of the viewing platform at sea of people, from here to see the past, the Eiffel Tower reveal a clear and pleasant attitude. Although the TV picture has been seen many times, but see real it, or excitement. From summer temple down the steps, cross the bridge, close to feel the magnificent Tower. Go past, see den Tower people queuing up a long queue. Now the Eiffel Tower to the top began to Internet service, but only the English page, I tried, our credit card payment the same can not be successful, and Chinese language page on group tickets can be booked only. If you have friends abroad can ask them to help booking. The scene is queued, so people can only give up the idea of climbing tower. Back to the bridge, locate the Seine River Cruise dock, I said before, I am in the Eurostar website www.eurostar.com ordered tour tickets. Seine River Cruise: Paris people pleasure boat, fly the ship, River bus. We booked one cruise in Paris. Four personal 31.81 Europe. To the ticket booth to print off the reservation for a ticket, and then on the boat. After the note on the ship's crew's welcome speech, she will ask you have come to this country, when asked to have China, hurry and raise their hands, she'll put Chinese interpretation channel open, and then all the way to listen to the explanation see the scenery will not be confused. Pleasure boat approximately 1 hour from, also returned to the original port. Disembarkation back to summer Temple nearby, find a home you can see the Eiffel Tower restaurant, sit down dinner. We sat in the outdoor seating, think for a moment the Eiffel Tower lighting when you can see the beautiful night view. Who thought of the day turned out black Paris is so slow, eat a good meal is 9 points, day or light, you would like to see the postcard on the bright at night, at least until 10: 30. Come to think of it this time to play in Europe, every evening after dark time at 10 o'clock, for tourists is very favorable, but the disadvantage is not able to see at night. 1 Aug, Sun, Yin sunny today is one of the first weekday of month, is the Louvre is free every month. Morning walk to Charles Woo Gongmenkou, sitting on the HOP ON HOP OFF tour, four people in two days, the same is Europe 68.5 Eurostar bookings on the website. Sit in the Louvre, see Mun went in. A get in was the Queuing service of a jump, as soon as possible to let two child investigation about how long the queue. Half day two children came back, the answer is the old Presbyterian Minister, Khan. But good in forward speed does not slow down, so get down to line up. After queuing up for more than an hour, from entry into the Louvre pyramid. In fact, our family's experiences in the arts, so nice just to see the town shops Sambo, others do not know everything a waste of time. Free Japanese people really many, town shop Sambo front was full of people, especially the Mona Lisa's smile is very busy at the front, pushes all crowded into it. To Paris, the Louvre is a must, for me, the Louvre's significance and that's it. Sambo, already had lunch at noon, I originally wanted to find a book found a restaurant, but the Louvre is too big for our hands free map of Paris and enough detail, was not found. The result is in a restaurant to eat. But I put restaurant information stickers, interested can take a look: Café de I ' epoque: 2 rue du Bouloi, galerie Verot-Dodat Metro Louvre station. 1826 when there is a Grand Café, which has now been renovated into an authentic Paris features a small restaurant offering authentic French food, such as the fat of Goose liver, small snacks, etc. Sitting on the bus, we proceed to the next attractions: Notre Dame de Paris. See Notre Dame de Paris, a place is delicious we absolutely should not miss, in Notre-Dame, Saint Louis Island, later on the island the most delicious Paris is said to be an ice cream shop, Berthillon. The island I saw a bag, and so I bought one to ask about ice cream shop BerthillOn information, enthusiastic shopkeeper aunt told me that the earliest Berthillon is gone, closed. Now there are a number of Berthillon shop, are subsequently opened, but also sell the same ice cream. Then find the queuing up in a (more prove that tasty queued, Khan), all the way back to Notre-Dame with ice cream. Continue to take tourist car, always sit des Champs. European Sun really bright people keep my eyes open eyes, finally understand why Europeans everyone a pair of sunglasses, not trying to be cool, but is required. Do as the Romans do, a person or to a Vice, wearing really feel much better. Lei Peng glasses 135-155 euro a pair, the profound feeling again to the Europeans and the Chinese people's standard of living. In the Champs Elysees Avenue, and we follow Paris people, find an open-air restaurant, a drink. Eat and drink, a meal waiters will bring you to the dining table seats inside, but if you just have a drink, let you sitting outside a circle, facing the Boulevard seat — Yes, all bar restaurant in Paris at the door are part of the seats for street, between each two seats, there is a small round table, so you sit facing the street, I don't know what is the street view, or be regarded as a landscape, perhaps both. In the evening back to the hotel in front of a restaurant, I once again make when ordering a joke. Although the menu is in English, but for half a bottle of my looks or some difficulties. I see there is a main dish called Home made tatar, thought this is cooked of meaning, it must be their specialty strategy, then point to this. Results up dumbfounded when, not just raw meat? LG said how to jiaozixian served, the three of them have gloated music. Then know the tatar is very famous cuisine, translated into Chinese called Tatar meat, there are two methods, one is born, there is also a bit with pan fried, but estimated inside or green. Subsequently many times seen people eat, don't know how they are eaten. Also good has French before LG point snail, I ate a few, and took some bread, finally not so hungry, as regards that hygiene meat, I tasted two, feel what you're going to get nothing, the rest had to put in there the reserved for waitress jokes. This meal some expensive 108.2 Europe. 2 August, Monday, fine or morning sitting tour, this time in the Paris Opera, and in this magnificent buildings stay for a while, only took a few photos, didn't go in, and walked towards the direction of Lafayette. I don't know why so many people recommend Lafayette, in my opinion, this is simply not worth going to the grocery store. Efforts were not in the shop said that shopping environment is very poor. One more question for a while will feel upset, even if the goods more then all would make people lose interest in shopping. Shop around for a while, we unanimously decided to withdraw from leave. Then go find a book recommended a two players from China and Viet Nam for Chinese couples the shop, "Asian snack" (Operasie), the most recommended that the boss to special spices of beef. Address: 10, Rue du Helder, 9e, however, we found this shop, I regret, shopkeeper couple holiday rest. Right next door is another Chinese restaurant, the food tastes do quite well. Three dishes for lunch and a bowl of wonton 38.2 Europe. Have a good lunch, decided to go to the Sacred Heart Church. Rent 11 Europe, go directly to the Sacred Heart church door. Visit good l'Eglise, Sacred Heart Cathedral steps down, it should be is Hill Plaza. But to be honest, Sacred Heart Church here feeling is not very well worth a trip, of course, if you have a lot of affluent time may also wish to visit a stroll around here, after all, the most famous Moulin Rouge. Back when I take the subway back to the Lafayette there, because we want to find a specialty restaurant: Chartier address: 7 Rue du Faubourg Montmartre 75009, MTR station M8, Grands Boulevards station 9: tel: 0147708629 I found on the Internet is: 1896 opened restaurant has become a historical building. From the year, history, current situation, are worthy of an old, cheap first. Inside, much like a Grand Ballroom, baggage overhead luggage rack. The oldest restaurant in Paris, the most common price. There are old guests ate for decades. Inside there is a single grandfather did more than 20 years, Word of mouth is very good. Menus are simple and rich, without compromise of France. Package 15 euros. From Lafayette go past a slight distance, but you can live with it. We went there also compare a null, and so we eat well when the outside is already queuing up a long queue, visible is very fire restaurant. It is really great, but like introduction, baggage in overhead. But let us headaches are the menu is French, ask uncle of single, tells us there is no English. No choice but to even guess with Mongolia. Good in French, English or some similarities, such as English beefsteak, steak, French is called steack; dessert desserts, so also be read. Oh, you guessed it, our point is steak. No way, other really do not understand. But Uncle through and single, the difficulty in communication we point a guest 12 tablets of snails. As regards the set b? we didn't find any package. Objective, in the dining room to eat a steak, because I do not think to do it's great, but maybe there is no point to their house specialty foods, such as my daughter after a point is delicious desserts. Said here, I remember we next door a couple, the old lady points is that let me unforgettable tatar, I see she is French fries when spoon, digs to eat meat. But I think my life won't try this thing. This meal even tip took 74 euro. Although the menu is written already includes a 12% service charge, but we or by 10 percent paid for the tips, it is because see waiter walked briskly, busy, busy, and thatSome waiter is a old uncle, so couldn't give extra copies of a tip. By the way, there is also a very interesting details, point when the waiter brought you order all written on the tablecloth, checkout the calculation directly on the tablecloth, it is a good way to practice addition, and paper-saving, environmental protection, haha! 3 August, Tuesday, sunny and today's itinerary is Versailles. In the morning, we decided to travel by taxi. Unexpectedly, Paris taxi rather difficult to play, even if we stand on it's Jan strokes point — no empty, occasionally a car also. We note that taxi of lamps and Shanghai, three colors, the problem is that we haven't figure out exactly what lights to beckon. However only post-return Internet clearly, those three lights seemed and fees, and null is not empty is okay, Halo. Finally we go to the summer Temple, finally see an empty point at Jan strokes. Plus, the way is opened to Versailles 30 euro. Versailles was repainted, so the Palace there is a sharp contrast to brushed gold powder that part of the name is a magnificent, and not part of the brush to the ups. But anyway, the striking architectural or persuasive, look at the queues at the entrance to buy tickets in person. Because early learning strategy, know people lining up to buy tickets, tickets for me so here also bought a ticket in advance online: 25 euro for adults, 18 years of age free of charge. Even so, line up the door or many, fortunately, speed is not slow, and soon entered the door, a security check, to the Palace. Go to the visitor center, you can get free maps, free on the device. And then along the tour route, a one-room going just fine. After each time into the room to find room to draw a small headset with dashboard on the numbers, and then on the device to enter this number, there will be Exposition of the Chinese language. But to tell the truth, so go all the way to a great extent influenced the Visual effect, I think if time sufficient, you can enter the room stood still listen on, and then use the eyes give the room a look again, this result should better than walking while listening. From the main building, is noon, roadside road yazi on full eat lunch, hand sandwich, hot dogs. We found a cafe, or intend to sit down comfortably eat a lunch. Dinner to see a girl points and tatar. OMG, look my nightmare is many people's food, HA HA. Tips to eat lunch with 90 euro. Eat a good lunch, to the rear garden. They found that children in the garden behind the fare is not, in the ticket sales booth next to buy two tickets to the garden, 12 euro. The garden is also a striking, its luxury and atmosphere to the people and the Palace is not the same feeling. The Museum is big, but to give people more shocking is that there is a Royal feeling, high above the solemn. And Versailles was another Royal style, in the heart of stone carving, broad a boundless green, is a stylish feel. Along the pedestrian road, go straight and Apollo Jet pool, to the Grand Canal, the river and a handful of sitting, while you enjoy the sunshine. We wander to lay down on the grass. The wind blowing slightly, Breeze like gentle, pleasant, warm and the sun shines on the human body, the LG actually asleep. A large goose veering to swim to shore, a child was in the food and feed it, daughter and son are very fresh, because that is the first time they had seen geese. Lie down for a while, get up toward the big teliya Lennon Palace. See the description, this Palace was Louis XIV and the rest of the Royal family. But compared to Versailles, the Palace was clearly some sloppy protection, have a spacious feeling down and out. Visit out large teliya Lennon Palace, we all feel a bit tired, but large teliya Lennon Palace is not making a character value for feeling, so I decided to give up small teliya Lennon Palace, directly back to the entrance. Big teliya Lennon Gongmenkou tour buses that battery, 3 Europe a one-way, that is to say, no matter where you sit, stand off the car, 3 ' ends. Look, I know you from the Grand Palace to the door teliya that point the road is not too long, 4 personal is 12 euro, or province. But then I have some regrets, because people are tired of that point road will look very long! out of Versailles, came to the street of Yang called point slightly and so on for a while, and wait for a taxi. Let drivers directly to the Pompidou Centre, we where there is a friends recommended restaurants: FLUNCH. About this restaurant, users of this: 42 Rue Ste Croix de la Bretonniere 75004 11, Metro station: Rambuteau closed: Saturday and Sunday morning and Monday's choice: 7 heads up, 5 5 main dish, dessert wine, also includes optional! main dish juicy, tasty, France cheapest chain restaurant Flunch-all-you-can-eat! very hard to find the location, Metro station from the Pompidou rambeteau export came out to see the signs ... (It has a different 2 entrance). Flunch really blew the door you can choose beverages and cold drinks or other forms of food, you can then point the main course, noodles or something, then go to the cashier. Then have unlimited buffet eat French fries, vegetables and many called the name of Chinese and Western food. Anyway, I just paid for 6 bucks and buy great piece just fried good ribs, eat fast support. Here's a cold drink is not expensive, banana boat is only 3 blocks of 4. General use of a large plate with a main course, you can freely take other rice, potatoes, vegetables, pasta and things like that. Prices do not package salad, dessert, 3-10. The reason here for dinner, there is a reason can be dropped in a tour of the Pompidou Center. But eaten only experience, this is a simple buffet! full there is no need to specifically go to this place to eat this yucky buffet! this is a failure, but luckily users recommended and not all bad, yesterday's restaurant is very distinctive, if it is naturally to spit blood! the following comment on how carefully I came to this restaurant. First choice-course. LG chose OmeLet that be are fried, but the smell is not good. We have selected several of roast chicken, is already well over there, so it is conceivable that is half hot. Then choose a few vegetables fruit drinks, will go to the checkout. Checkout the waiter asked would you like coffee, I said no, then know that coffee also receive money, $ 1 1 Cup, just do not know whether it is unlimited refill. Bear good account into the restaurant, there is a little counter with some food is free of charge — only so little things for free: French fries, fried potato chips, Italy hollow powder, a bean as bean, white rice, a plate of fried like a cucumber slice or stewed in butter cucumber. It seems, only French fries or you can eat. This dinner is not cheap, 4 personal 41.35 Europe. I'd prefer one person, a hot dog, it's delicious and cheap. Strongly do not recommend this restaurant to eat a dip! I poured the Pompidou Centre are to behind. In fact, the Pompidou Centre is well worth to go there is taste, is not to say, the book describes many of the square behind the Bardo is also very cute. If you have time, you can spend more time here, go early, you can go inside tour of the Centre. But we as late, stomach or hungry, so only cursory to stroll around in a circle, the feeling to the last drop. August 4, Thursday, fine evening go rain today change rooms. Morning produces good, let the front desk help we call a taxi to the North Station. Wait, I tell you, Paris for rent starting from receiving phone began playing table. Sure, when you drove to have 4-Europe (starting 2.1 Europe). But even so in Paris taxi is not too expensive, we from summer Temple here hit North Station is almost across the Centre of Paris, but only 15 euro. Check this out and live the worst Hotel: New Hotel Gare Du Nord. Say this hotel is across from the North railway station, location really cattle, but the room would not have said, there is a smell, the bed was no pillows! this is my first time to live to no pillows hotel. Specifically, is not without a pillow, but he put a strip of packages in the bed volume into a single volume, this becomes a pillow! this room was also severe in Europe, 149! second sky train, couldn't help it. Today's trip is Disney. We decided to go by taxi. Because I was going to Disney among the subway as long as some EU 10, then it means that not far away. Findings of fact, this is a serious mistake. With the taxi meter, the higher the amount, the jump, I thought that this article a under things big. But since we have to sit just throwing that results to Disney, 88 euro! that's a painful lesson, and my daughter said, write travels must write down: go to Disney don't fight! introduction that Paris Disney in Hong Kong Disney built, is the smallest of Disney. The fact is, indeed, also divided into two Park, I feel very inconvenient. Probably Europe only then a Disney's sake, it is not a weekend in the garden are many. We first went to the StUDIO, my daughter at a glance in a jump from the machine, in Disney's inside should be called terrorist Tower. Take a look at the queue, so use very much in advance for booking time, a look that is in the afternoon. Also in other places turned, StUDIO is smaller and go two ring has been transferred in full. So I went to Disney LAND. Disney LAND is relatively large, you can play with something more, but also many more. To be honest, I never had seen in Europe so many tourists, friction rub shoulders, like the back of the heel of the country. Almost every project you want to line up, or use the reservation booking machine machine, but also only three items, so I'd like to take the kids to play with Disney's or go to Hong Kong, after all, the ticket is much cheaper. Tickets for the four of us are Eurostar website reservation, 180.78 Europe. 7: 30 pm, show begins xunjie, but when the rain is coming down, and faster. Fortunately, we've brought an umbrella, we come to Europe for the first time in the future come out to play umbrella, some pride, too predictable! performed nor xunjie Hong Kong look good, like the original in Hong Kong Disneyland, the first performance of shock stunning xunjie feeling for a long time, but not loose in the afternoon and go on tour again. Paris Disney character of the performances, the Group of actors, the length of the float road. Alas, no way, who let a European salaries go back high!, good chose to take the subway. In fact, the subway from Disney to North Station or very smooth, REC A4 line down B or D lines. Four personal 26.8 Europe. On this day, is that spending money wasted no harvest day. 5 August, Friday, Yin today to leave Paris travel to Amsterdam, where we will extract we rent a car, below all self-driving. Heart vaguely excited: finally not down subway hit. Early arrival at the hotel opposite the railway station, staring at a big screen, waiting for our train station. Finally, to the railway station in Paris! no railings, at facilities that only in this way at the end of the platform has a similar punch machine the same thing, to displace the ticket, it lol a print some more data on it, even if checked tickets, self-help, and do not understand it, and see what they get, accordingly. Before, each car following has ticket inspectors, probably because of the international trains. I was also booked seat is also relative to seat four people. I didn't expect it to take a look at the top of the compartment, and the subsequent ordinary seat was a door, that is, a door into the car to drive, left four relative seat, and then open a door in it, is a renowned seat of seat, seemed our seats like a small balcony, a concealed. Another train rumbled forward away, this time we are going to start a time up to 9 days of transnational self-driving, interested friends continue to lock my travels next: European Tour 3 – Trinidad self-driving (1)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-8334059962701475690?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/8334059962701475690/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/05/european-tour-2-paris-romantic-feelings.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/8334059962701475690'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/8334059962701475690'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/05/european-tour-2-paris-romantic-feelings.html' title='European Tour 2 – Paris romantic feelings'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-7031063304529287070</id><published>2011-05-07T08:34:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-07T08:34:51.757-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>The most beautiful cemetery in Paris</title><content type='html'>Back from Paris, my dad asked me to Fontainebleau Mody. I said no, I am the last shot to the head or stroll down the graveyard. Only steal from the valuable form of half-days, I'm rocking. Reason should go to see the exquisite Royal Palace complex, but playing things I always submissive to intuition. Intuition told me repeatedly reading about a name, so I still jump on the Metro, run to Philip II station. Because there are many famous people buried here, in Paris, Lachaise father Cemetery (Cimetière du Père-Lachaise) perhaps is the world's most famous a graveyard. Always want to go there for a walk, take a look at the tombs of Oscar Wilde. I missed the barren winter and spring of a chill in the air, finally a sunny autumn day here. Westerners and Chinese people value the world after death, the tombs of meticulous. Of course, after all, significant differences in cultural traditions, their grave and Chinese graveyard dramatically different, no rapturous incense, feeding, but everywhere in the underworld all over with flowers, statues and Avenue in the heart of quiet, like a deep sleep in the garden. In the United Kingdom school I often go through a small cemetery, tired lonely impetuous, just sit there for a while, let the heart on slowly slowly sinking down. Sun dance with people like Yao, keep my eyes open eyes. Entered the Lachaise father cemetery, first caught sight of clumps in the corner blooming wildflowers. Main road Ave.--stand in the heart of high and low of tombstone, toes will look not to the end, not by a wave of fear, so big a graveyard, I can find what you're looking for? map before edging with signage and a handful of tourists, as well as my General hard and hands do homework located two contrast to speculate what fork should be left or right. I do well in advance of the Raiders have long listed on a bunch of names: writer Balzac, Brest, Oscar Wilde, Moliere, La Fontaine, Jean-Paul Sartre, the composer Chopin, Bize, Rossini, soprano singer Callas, dancer Duncan, thinker, poet Saint-Simon Eugene &amp;amp; # 8226; Pottier Ke Wright, painter Pissarro¡¯s, de la Croix ... Of course the Chinese children known federes. However, an area of 118 acres of Lachaise father cemetery but Paris is the largest cemetery in the city, whether famous or ordinary person may ruzang. Even if the holding grave map from distribution to the intricacies of the winding paths of nearly 30 million pieces of tombstone to find my familiar favorite name, is not an easy task, as an exciting orienteering treasure hunting activities. I found the first piece is the "gate" tombstone singer Jim &amp;amp; # 8226; Morrison (Jim Morrison). It is said that the band's name comes from United Kingdom poet William &amp;amp; # 8226; Blake's poem: "when the doors of perception were open, people will be able to see the true nature of things, endless". Morrison was a UCLA student film origin, formation of the band's intention was to come through the door of the music for the ultimate answer everything, but his short life are lost and wandering in the search. This is my university days, favorite bands, those with love and sex, filled with darkness and death of text and music, had the 20-year-old me perplexed and intoxicating. , Jim &amp;amp; # 8226; Morrison's voice is so stuck in the deep deep underground, unable to wake up. That sounds muffled in-depth and gloomy, wouldn't like from a 20-year-old young man's mouth, as though he had not been younger and older. He is the eternal wear tight leather pants mocks world man, is the fall curls mumbling poet, was also made that constantly talked wildly outrageous behaviour of a madman. Map labeling &amp;amp; # 8226; Jim Morrison's tombstone in 6 areas, yet for a long time wandering around, I never get to see. Being anxious, met a group of splatter explosive head, young man with guitar, not miles coming to visit. We felt to look for in a welter of tall headstones, discovered this great singer of sleep, turned out to be so low sloppy. 1971 3 July morning, 27-year-old Morrison in Paris apartment bathtub stopped breathing, cause of death was identified as the "lungs of continuity myocardial infarction". I have quite a long time deep crush the die, which salespeople hold at that moment, so cruel about-face, only life and death of a line, not the process of aging weak. Perhaps Morrison has been summoned to die, his famous poem, the End is to write your own epitaph: this is the end, Beautiful friend this is the end, My only friend, the end Of our elaborate plans, the end Of everything that stands, the end No safety or surprise, the end I'll never look into your eyes...again ... Now I have this fascination with the diversion. I accept the life of normality, obedient to the will of the creator, slowly growing up and growing old, enjoy this slow process of cruelty. Just like me and Morrison still cannot accept alone, we need a lot of love and lots of warm support body and spirit. Fadeless and lonely long coexistence will be a small man's highest realm. Then I went to visit a Chopin (f.f.chopin) cemetery. This is known as a romantic lyric music composer and pianist of Poland, grave stand a melancholy young girls white statue, loving and not language, and people on the "Piano poet" impression. We of course also very nosy and think of his love of France authoress George &amp;amp; # 8226; Mulberry. George &amp;amp; # 8226; Hassan often a handsome man dressed, words and deeds and easy simply, and weight loss, sensitive, gentle Chopin attraction, it seems that there is a complementary nature. But we see only the surface, ChopinInner world, where deep into what kind of passion and grief? he left nearly 200 works, mostly soft Yuen-bright piano. This calm under temperature, he is the eternal pursuit of beauty for and lost, maybe George &amp;amp; # 8226; sang most clearly. While standing at the we before his tombstone, only waste since speculation. When it comes to beauty, I think the first person to actually be Oscar &amp;amp; # 8226; Oscar Wilde. This brilliant aestheticism playwright, devoted all his life with a personal practice to the beauty of pure pursuit. Nowadays people like Oscar Wilde, loves his florid, humorous conversation, act boldly. Many famous wit famous originates from his mouth, such as "men and women because of the misunderstanding, but by understanding them. "" I can resist anything except temptation. "," Personality kind than looks beautiful, but personality good is better than good health so ugly. "," Life imitating art, rather than reflecting life in the arts. ”…… His entire people Gwen marked a new life in the 19th century, it is difficult to accept for someone else, on the twenty-first century is a fashion model. Although he has openly declared his homosexuality, died on falling gravestones full world women's kisses. But I love Wilde, but because his words touched my heart confused's bottom line. The arrogance of the man, his narcissism has quipped, always provocative, always declare war, but in the face of his own, he straightened out, bitter convergence sought answers to life's most basic. Beauty can transcend moral? pure heart will come to? so he published that the road forest &amp;amp; # 8226; gray portrait ", that is the beauty, art and evil most ruthless cross-examination. He wrote "the happy Prince fairy tale set on, it was the best I have read the most sad fairy tale. So he is always in doubt, always do not believe that the public at large. My bookcase at a card on his left hand, head, eyes empty photo, and the classic question: Whenever people agree with me I always feel I must be wrong. (whenever people agree with me, I always feel like I must be wrong. ) He is a pessimist, but still full of Crabby's naive. So with the brightest thing: We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars. (we are all in the gutter, but some stars. ) Unfortunately I did not find dancer Isha Dora the Explorer &amp;amp; # 8226; Duncan's Tomb, back out to know that she has specialized in existence of tombstones, ashes to ashes in a cemetery Chapel, grade 6796. Fate always put more suffering to the talented person, Duncan is the will to live. Reading of the autobiography of Duncan "in those days, experiencing life in a slump, reading to heart-break, often just a fellow will write down her text, I believe that every life has a spirit, an upward curve. All insist, reinforced this curve thing is our real life, the rest is just a soul forward from the US drops envelope. — Yisha Dora the Explorer &amp;amp; # 8226; Duncan returns, accident after Edith &amp;amp; # 8226; piyafu (Edith Piaf) Tomb. The life of "rose" as Chinese well-known female singer is twice during World War II, a representative of France garden Villa, is also a bit and have a lifetime of fate bucket of women. Great characters, usually encounter more ordinary people a greater tribulations, or because they have all sorts of suffering very bitter but have not been defeated, finally to become a great character. This is Mencius said "the day will disguise it." Juvenile, dreaming is such a "Remembrance", grow up slowly in the face of the fact, perhaps someone could not play destiny entrusted, however there is still life full of hardships, must be enclosed in the contend against the will and the end, not disarm surrender. This is my own little expectations.

Compared with London Square, Paris is a beautiful and romantic. Street path is full of flowers, and elegant bars, cafe. With traditional antique houses phase partners, are still preserved in the gravel. &lt;p&gt;Autumn in Paris is glorious, El-Eiffel remains the derricks, accompanied by 100 years of standing still. &lt;/p&gt; Seine river water is still so clear, the river cruise or walking to the taste of Paris's autumn. &lt;p&gt;Today can be seen in the novels of Notre Dame, tall tower stands on a small island in the Seine. &lt;/p&gt; If you know little about the Catholic, then I am afraid that only cursory. &lt;p&gt;There is no doubt that the Versailles palace and the Louvre is the gem of France culture. &lt;/p&gt; Louis XIV established Versailles everywhere highlight a virtual China and a stately and Louvre collection of Mona Lisa, the Venus statue and victory statue as the fragrance of 3, it attracts numerous eyeballs. In my impression, as if the London National Gallery of art painting is good at, and the Louvre on the statue has given me a deep impression. I am not an art connoisseur, but undoubtedly Louvre art is great. &lt;p&gt;Montmartre and the Sacre Coeur Church Highland I was nothing special, but in his next to an open-air art market is very attractive. &lt;/p&gt; Place, surrounded by a few blocks of the low building surrounded not big courtyard, with yellow leaves of autumn and the open-air cafe chairs, some Street painter crowded in there to stop painting of tourists, 10 euro suffice. There are also paintings, paintings in dozens of hundreds of the price. Perhaps this will be the future of Van Gogh cardat! &lt;p&gt;Night in Paris is noisy. &lt;/p&gt; The famous Moulin Rouge theatre with timeless drama, though no makeup, but did feel no obscenity, filled the audience, which also has many ladies, worth a visit! 2 nightly, fare of € 85-95. &lt;p&gt;Compared with the noise of Paris, the southern city of Nice is a good place for seaside holiday. &lt;/p&gt; Although the values fall, but Eastern Mediterranean blue sea or let people Kiss. Nourished so much history and civilization, also gave birth to this too much better looking and sadness. United Kingdom people walking road stretches for more than 10 km, seems to embrace a plethora of waves, stroking her brow ... &lt;p&gt;To drive 30 minutes to arrive at the Casino of Monaco. &lt;/p&gt; Pocket-sized country is famous for gambling and racing. Monte Carlo car Shuttle in narrow curved streets, it is the fear for drivers; and the Casino is Las Vegas than not a bright and stylish, the seaside scenery but let people forget to return. From the Grand Duke Palace looked down, and side wall of the mountain, is a quiet Bay-Park of private yachts, precipitous walls of the mountain stands the towering palaces and Cannon, a reminder here was the ancient battlefield. Monaco is worth a go. &lt;p&gt;A few days to go many places, in fact, is to get to sleep, off camera type of tourism. &lt;/p&gt; Most of the Chinese European tour. Due to the different cultural, religious, historical background, most people in Europe the myth of architecture, art, are not widely understood, mind-blowing is possible, but it is certain yet. &lt;p&gt;European prices its expensive, hotel good point over at 100 euros, more than RMB 1000 kg. &lt;/p&gt; The majority of France who do not speak English, even if you hear only answer your French, maybe the national pride. Even in the Louvre, all signs and callout text will be French, it is resistant to Ho! &lt;p&gt;In short, European tour before we must first look at European history, religion and culture, in addition to accompanying preparations, and enough money, then the beginning of the wine fills me with courage qiangang starting! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At the end of October 2004 &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-1129462187802381291?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/1129462187802381291/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/04/france-monaco-cursory-travels.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/1129462187802381291'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/1129462187802381291'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/04/france-monaco-cursory-travels.html' title='France, Monaco cursory travels'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-489571631359476410</id><published>2011-04-25T07:58:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-25T07:58:07.796-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>Shanghai fly: European buffet train lines (1)</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;European train buffet line: preparations &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;European line last year. &lt;/p&gt; Now go directly from domestic trains tourism European buffet is not widespread. So I think a lot of experience, a lot of experience to share. Write this travelogue is on this journey of remembrance. &lt;p&gt;This travel was a friend of mine invited to attend an event in the small town in Northern Germany Berlin Neubrandenburg, 9, 10 and 11 July. &lt;/p&gt; This matter to determine only the beginning of August. I August 11, to apply for Schengen visas, in the Consulate 8 to 18. And then just booked my ticket. Because it's too late and plus season, most tickets are already sold out. Many setbacks, finally get it is from Bangkok and Helsinki two turn to Berlin's Thai and fenhang ticket (return trip is Nordic aviation Copenhagen a turn for the better). My travel plans after the events of the week the main countries with train travel. On the Internet to do a lot of homework, finally found Euler rail ticket office in Shanghai, people's Square West Jinling road. European train tickets are generally multinational tourism for buy ticket is a ticket for the kind of casual riding. Ticket can only be purchased outside of Europe, the species is also very complex. I finally bought that three countries (Germany and Italy) five days (without continuous) twin ticket (I went with my wife). In order for the ticket, really hurt a lot. First of all, it is necessary to comply with my trip, that is to go to the most worthy of a place, not to me early on unalterable Paris, French Riviera, and Venice. Secondly, convergence, I checked the European rail network for airfares, last from a few sets of programmes selected a set (the other as backup). Last thing, the price, must meet my requirements and is the lowest. Also, pass only includes the normal ticket price. If you are a high-speed trains and overnight train, positioning fees to pay. Locate either in the Shanghai Office, you can also set the main railway station in Europe. In the process of considering travel itinerary may change, I just booked before departure from Nice to Rome by overnight train. My trips are: &lt;p&gt;Shanghai-Bangkok-Helsinki-Berlin-Brandenburg-Berlin-Khas Ruhr-Strasbourg-Paris-Nice-Rome-Venice-Monaco/Monte-Carlo-Cannes-Paris-Mannheim-Berlin-Copenhagen-Shanghai (including transit interchange stations, of which the second Berlin to third Berlin between all by train) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The train line has the advantage that you can see the scenery, cheap, save time, more romantic. &lt;/p&gt; The entire trip four days sleeping on the train. Annex I of the ticket. &lt;p&gt;Determine the travel and transportation to accommodation issues after. &lt;/p&gt; Do I worry about the Neubrandenburg, aircraft around on the one night, the train I plan a fourth night, leaving only the need to address the two nights in Paris and Berlin by night. I'd in "poor" on the Internet and find an Paris Chinese family hotel, very cheap (small villa of double room, per night € 36, 360 Yuan). Contact after he let me half the money for flowed down to his Shanghai Bank account number. There is no official credentials, then do not sign what I plan to arrive before 11 pm. See the online evaluation of others, and finally decided to trust him, put money in the past. Then prove that this decision was right. Berlin hotel is online with a credit card. Just a sixingjiudian promotions, 50 euro a night. At home it's not cheap. But in Europe, this is almost the same as sent. &lt;p&gt;Last turn to the equipment. &lt;/p&gt; I bring a camera, a few years ago bought Sony, 320 Megapixel, by two batteries. A prior to temporary buy digital companion, capacity 40G. There are also mobile phones (most of the time the flight mode, when the alarm clock and back-up camera. Sometimes short post receiving and dispatching short note). These three guys themselves are not large, but with three heavy charger! now I wish someone could invent a universal charger. There is also a small things have to say, just be sure to bring the European power conversion socket. Prior to Interbrew bought one in Germany and France are very well, didn't think Italy is not the same results in Rome more! spent an hour to buy conversion socket. By the way, before a book online that European train has a power outlet. The fact is all the overnight train! results in Rome at the end of the battery completely used up, the next morning in the face of Venice beauty camera cannot be used, but also good God our eyes in the station platform a corner to give me an outlet, but still very embarrassing. It seems to get home before homework or not. &lt;p&gt;OK, back story and photos posted on let me slowly. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;It was originally posted on I often go to a cell phone Forum. &lt;/p&gt; The Forum phone-easy to use, see stickers out there posting very convenient.

Hear the matter, and media coverage on the front of the different, I feel uneasy, intellectual property protection I always attaches to others the fruits of intellectual work deserves the respect of society, it is beyond doubt, let alone in an increasingly enhanced intellectual property protection of contemporary China. But my worry is that too much is too much, too many too many obligations are combined in an ordinary consumers. Don't you see, eat consumed was additionally the whitening agent, said that consumers should strengthen the ability of self identification, cannot readily be bought; cover quilt is a black cotton, that is, consumers can not only COS cheap and good health; house cracks, said that consumers should be negotiated in advance and development, and good terms in accordance with this statement, the consumer is not possible to buy the House, at least in this life; travel by bike because no body weight and broken, said people ride is too heavy for self-driving quality problems that consumers should be carefully selected and regularly inspected. All of these errors are due to consumers ' error.

Selectable combinations of flights up to 2-3. .The overall spirit is, cheap is not white accounted for, since you do not charge fuel tax, it would be around my site, always more or less consumption of thing ... &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; I have not been to Dubai, in addition to .purse size is limited, so do not hesitate to choose the Emirates. .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; Moreover, as global economic recession, the United Arab Emirates has also launched a stopover item (Stopover), the visa + hotel package services. .Visa about 450 yuan, 1,000 yuan from the hotel. .I compared the various travel agencies, also tried his hotel looking for a visa agent (provided reservation and stay at the hotel) and found that Emirates package price is relatively fair. .Because, cheap airline tickets to reach, leaving time for most of the morning in Dubai, and if you are stopping one night, for example: 1 June 1am (that is midnight May 31) arrived June 2 1am to leave (ie June .1 at midnight), book the hotel needs to June 1 12am check-out, of course, you can also discuss with the hotels in the June 1 22pm check out, subject to only half the price. .But if you use Emirates Stopover services, be selected from a 24-hour stay and departure of the hotel, it seems to only count 1 day room rate, of course, but also save a lot of trouble, but certainly well in advance and confirm the specific Emirates .schedule and requirements. .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; The airline&amp;#39;s Beijing office phone is extremely difficult to access, make sure to be patient. .If you choose to go to the Office of the tickets, pick up a Dubai Airport Terminal 3 leaflets. .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; buy cheap air tickets Tips: &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; 1. Airways a lot, do not easily shot. .More to the various airline sites to see their own, and not just in the travel agency site visit, may be able to find cheap airline tickets in particular. .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; 2. The airline ticket itself more than 2 kinds of prices, online ordering directly to the office than to buy cheap, of course, online ordering can usually choose to go to the Office of the tickets. .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; 3. If you know a travel agent friend, and your trip coincided with their tour match, sometimes they can provide you with a separate ticket service. .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; Third, the formulation of travel &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; lesson is this the most complex step. .But the general principles are as follows: &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; 1. The total number of days you travel is the number? .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; 2. Are you going? .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; 3. You live in the hotel in which direction? .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; 4. Please visit the many attractions of the physical capabilities, and do not be too greedy on a visit, perhaps at the expense of the original idle some beautiful scenery can be able to experience the joy of feeling. .(My schedule like a zipper, as always rush too hastily, Barbara regret dead ...) &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; 1. The total number of days of your trip is how much? .(For the development of large travel) &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; to travel to Europe, if a total of 8 days, then, to get rid of the travel time before and after 2 days (13 hours non-stop or through a total of 20 transit time Di Baijia .hours. to reach arrangements that day is not recommended attractions, the best seize the time to rest; the time difference, basically equal to the departure date of the first 2 days in Beijing, for example, the departure date is June 1, arrived to Beijing more than the basic 6 .2 May) &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; 2. are you going? .(For the development of large travel) &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; If you have only the actual time of 6 days, then only been one place in France are not enough. .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; journeys principle recommendations are as follows: &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; a. .What cities do you want? .The city&amp;#39;s attractions have? .How much time to visit each attraction? .All the attractions of the tour how much total time? .The above issues as lists. .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; b. .Based on the above list to find interim city (conveniently out of consideration, usually in the Paris transit, but the more expensive hotels in Paris), calculated from the transit city to want to go to the city&amp;#39;s travel time used, and lists the list. .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; c. .Try not to turn back. .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; 3. You live in the hotel in which direction? .(Used to develop specific day trip) &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; large travel booked, specific to the line every day to establish principles recommend the following: &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; according to the hotel where the position, arrangements to nearby attractions .principle, after the first major attractions secondary attractions, daily 1-2 major attractions, coupled with 1-2 minor spots, if the itinerary includes the museum, you need to set aside more time. .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; hotel booking hotel from the directions on the network that, for more specific directions, can be sent to you in the booking confirmation e-mail network to find the hotel&amp;#39;s email address, you can directly ask the hotel. .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; 4. Take the train to a city, you can first travel office (general location of the station in the left hand side) pick up a local map, and to ask questions are still unclear. .There will be some hot city sightseeing tour train or bus, usually in the 7-10 euro range, contains all the basic attractions of the city is good to save time and energy methods. .In addition, the entire trip through the tour, the layout of the city you can have an overall understanding, focus more easily then choose to go to attractions. .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; 5. Line to draw the line basically guide your daily activities in foreign countries, of course, there are several options if an accident happens to some of the options to change according to .plans to more perfect, so well prepared for a very, very important! .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; line before they need to know what? .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; a. attractions of the French or the local language name, opening hours, how to get (if it is subway, take the need to know which subway lines, as well as French or stops the local language name; if rural attractions ., need to know what the train ride after transport to the) &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; b. sights and attractions in the interface between the traffic &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; 6. Some useful websites &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt; .p&amp;gt; Ctrip most important part of the community, many seniors from experience, after watching quite a benefit. .&amp;lt;/ P&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; the French Tourist Office official website http://cn.franceguide.com/ &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; Paris Museum Pass website (Pass the basic information contained within the sites can be found here) &amp;lt; ./ p&amp;gt; &amp;lt;p&amp;gt; http://www.parismuseumpass.com/en/home.php &amp;lt;/ p&amp;gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-6588475500561698873?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/6588475500561698873/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/04/tours-france-netherlands-2-12.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/6588475500561698873'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/6588475500561698873'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/04/tours-france-netherlands-2-12.html' title='Tours, France, Netherlands 2 12.'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-6042052746773202098</id><published>2011-04-16T00:01:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-16T00:01:05.458-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>Travel notes-Paris Tour-8 days</title><content type='html'>September 29, Thursday, although the entire Paris Tour yin is arranged for the longest time, but it is the most common other I feel very upset, noisy so a plant (finding personal feeling, not OFFEND mean). Because live in the Hyatt hotel near the airport, so every time the bus to the train station, some inconvenient, France though little Switzerland's simplicity and Germany's rigorous, but time concept or not bad, promised by the shuttle will arrive on time. We have to go to the station and buy a 5 day 5 districts of ticket went to Disney's trains. France's train older than Switzerland 's, in and out of the station with automatic ticket, there are Arabs not timed to singing, for money or anything, had wanted to rest on the car, and now also to think about how waving, swinging and equipped to face and eyes to blink frequency to reject them, some ANNOYING ... (Not to mention I mean, they sing I really enjoy, plus its foreigners ' performance and I almost, not many people really give you the shirt, the euro rose, RMB live "Mini me" not sufficient "sections of the mother", hehe) (one way), saw with little visitors, parents, family, though it is of wearing a pink dress, eh, then straight to Disney is the only authentic PINK, I also foreign disk. From the city center to the outskirts of a paradise is half an hour, not so good as naive, not many people, not crowded. To the door, I didn't imagine the excitement in may really an age a mood, but learn to come to Europe before, those who go to Hong Kong Disneyland presenters are "Wow, Oh, yes" to call a few remember, manufacturing some atmosphere. The tickets to foreigners than on France's expensive, one tenth decade Europe, what, me and my mother down the flow of people into the field. May be Halloween is coming, there is a new decoration into the pumpkin, witch, went from being a witch are crazy intercept live, and they close some shadow. Walked the whole paradise filled with joyful music and walk of cartoon characters, "happy" naturally up from the heart, Disney is indeed bring you joy. Through the Castle, and Pinocchio company soar with Dumbo, to ghost house guest, in outer space exploration ... Naive, but it has some meaning. Many items can be fun, but also do not have to queue, a little cool, huh, huh, but I got really really cool, because of the heavy rain and no umbrella. This does not want to be Disney's joint economic scrape money, also had to buy the black, long stem, with Mickey Mouse's head of giant expensive umbrella. Into the front also under it, buying a home day mean it will not give a drop of rain, until the evening back to the hotel, an umbrella or a brand new, very dry ... I really doubt that rain is man-made. A day at the amusement park to me and my mother's strength is almost back to the hotel at 10 p.m., except that the cumbersome umbrella, we also take 12 euro bought tickets by roller coaster at Paradise shoot down we were scared to look ugly photo souvenir.

Although the day to go to the cemetery and not this time France tour on the first day, but it is my entire trip unforgettable day. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Go to France before I listed many places to visit, Lachaise father cemetery in one of the columns, you can say is I need to go. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Where buried many world-class cultural celebrities. One romantic pianist and composer Chopin, the Opera "Carmen" and "Alai city girl" composer Bize, Italy opera composer Rossini and Tabellini, the Carnival of Romania suite composed by Michael is, Callas, soprano singer, dancer Duncan, stage actress Sarah Junv · Bena, rock star Jim Morrison, France-literatus Balzac, Hugo, Brest, Don Wright, Nodier, Gertrude Stein, France · famous poet and writer of Fables of La Fontaine, Existentialism, poet and writer of Sartre couples-Eugene Pottier, playwright Moliere, Oscar Wilde, the painter de la Croix, etc. are buried here. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lachaise Cemetery in Paris East, covers 44 hectares, the official name is "Eastern cemetery". &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Here is the "Sun King" Louis XIV (1643-1715, in bits) of the Confessor-Jesuit Lachaise's luxury villas. Lachaise won the Louis XIV of Nin, mastering the religious affairs for over 34 years, this villa is Louis XIV gave him. 1804 years here to cemetery, people used to call it the Lachaise father cemetery. According to statistics, Lachaise father cemetery is Paris 14 seat cemetery in the biggest, 200 years cumulative interment million deceased; existing Vault 10 million seat, and was buried nearly 30 million people. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In order to visit these undead, before setting out to do a little preparation though, but it is only slightly aware who was buried here. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; In the afternoon we take metro line 2 to the graveyard, a walk into the cemetery inside zhuaxia. In the face of the vast sea of the Tomb, the dense forest of steles, it really doesn't matter from. I can list many columns may be limited where looking at the time of their tomb wow? both in for a pound, along the rough blocks slowly find, find the calculation that, so with a simple cemetery map and door signs we started looking for. Spent a good half-day effort was first found the tomb of Chopin, on his tombstone front carved his side head relief, here is his name and birthday, tombstone above is wrapped with a veil, springs from the grief with hair, loosely humming girl head sculpture, in front of the tomb of a visitor who presented many flowers. In front of his burial, which help in memory of the musician's life and those who are familiar with the music, he and his big 6-year-old woman writer George · legend of Mulberry's love, his brilliant Piano Sonata, his sensitive, delicate, rich and intense poetic …. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In Chopin's grave left a shadow later started the hard to find. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Balzac's Tomb? Callas Tomb where ... we just kept on looking for that kept questioning. Usually come here mostly for relatives and ancestors ' graves, asking them capital is shaking his head, ask cemetery staff also just tell you a general orientation. We are at a loss if she suddenly found a middle-aged men in France is holding a book reading in the graveyard, thought this one was really quite interesting, in the graveyard book, is to seek a calm here, or for other what …. Didn't think we would look forward to using bad English say his Balzac's Tomb and Callas's Tomb in which he looked me in the hands of the map, and then tell us the exact location of the cemetery. We know and in the direction of his means, and will probably go to 100 metres, the man from France followed up and called out to us that you want to take us. At that time I felt really good is very excited to Wow, did not know that what is good, he kept just learned French said: ' buy and drink drink but pity! buy (thank you) '! &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He seems to always be here, on the cemetery of everything is so familiar that we as he moves through the forest of steles trail, every person he feels important cemeteries are thin as we explain, in part is we know and don't know. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; When he saw us puzzled looks when hand animatedly, tell us who is a poet, thinker who is …. In his lead by our first came to ashes to ashes toilet casket Hall is set in four of the wall, famous soprano singer Callas's tomb is placed on the ground floor, her tombstone, is 16259, I never thought that such a world famous soprano of only 30 cm x monument, tombstones were left to plug in a bunch of flowers, may also be like we do admire her offer. In her grave stands, it seems my ear pierced her sing in the Opera "Tosca", "for love, for the sake of art" sweet sentimental songs. "For love, for the sake of art" is on her short life of the best comments. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Out of ashes, we turn to find writers Pu Brest, Balzac, Don Wright, Oscar Wilde, Nodier, Don Wright, La Fontaine, Jean-Paul Sartre couples; painters de la Croix St. Simon, thinkers; poet Eugene. Bob Utah El; composer Bize, Nai, library, Rossini, Bailey, et al. 's grave, in their grave I only heart silently to pay tribute to them, because their health, for the mankind to create too much too valuable spiritual wealth, they deserve people they admire and cherish forever. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lachaise father Cemetery there are so many world-class cultural celebrities here Habitat, this make people have to think about, if globalization is not only the city to see foreign living come or not, live, also foreigners died leaving no stay of the soul. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; But such a city, the world has not. For many centuries, Paris has maintained a "intercourse". It enables aliens after death love to stay here. Underappreciated artists, retirement of Hollywood stars and cynicalDissidents, coup ousted politician, think of Paris. Past China in a word: a person's birth is not selected, but his future is optional. In other words: a life in what city was accidental, but buried in what the city can be selected. There are many foreigners, selection and was buried in Paris. Selected Paris, just select the free life. This is the significance of Paris, Lachaise father cemetery. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here I have a feeling that some of the world famous tombs and other non-famous grave than is so simple and plain, too obscure, but has that kind of person who's bootstrap France, I really can't imagine can find so many celebrities in the Tomb, he showed us what are the necropolis a good two and a half hours until the closed park after dark is deplored. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; When I left my chest at parting with a rose in France flag medal award him, he told us he would like it very much literature and classical music. No wonder he here so familiar with, no wonder he can proudly point to explain to us the way, maybe he is as there are so many world famous people could live in Paris and proud, maybe also for we have the same interests. But anyway, my mind is very grateful to the people of France. I also remember those graveyard dead souls, I will always remember the old alive France friends. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is why I put this day as France travel cards. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(In Chopin's grave) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(In France musician Opera Bizet's author Bize grave) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(France literatus Balzac's Tomb) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(In the soprano singer Callas grave) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Painter de la Croix's Tomb) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-4058904091302807181?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/4058904091302807181/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/04/memory-lachaise-father-cemetery-dead.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/4058904091302807181'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/4058904091302807181'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/04/memory-lachaise-father-cemetery-dead.html' title='Memory Lachaise father cemetery dead and alive'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-8144741504105619918</id><published>2011-04-16T00:00:00.003-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-16T00:00:58.260-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>Classic Paris</title><content type='html'>Paris, art, I have finally!, for saying people proud for some help in English, just arrived at the Charles de Gaulle airport, I deeply appreciate that. Detract from the fact that a capital airport, English signage was little, almost all of them is the only French language, perceptive somewhat less point man, I really don't know what to do. However not logical reasoning too much, because although many signs, but did not indicate the direction of the arrow, such as every 10 meters there is a brand name lists all of the terminal Services such as taxis, information center, train station and the like, but no arrows tell you to go to the left or to right away, simply illogical. Later in France for a few months friends met knew that this is the style of France who do things: If there's one thing you can do or not do, then France people definitely choose not to do, even if they do, most of them don't rely on the spectrum. So friends, France, especially in Paris, is a haven for the arts, science and health of hell. In the Paris subway system in the labyrinth-like twist, finally found the living hotel, managed traffic is fairly easy. Put down your luggage is rushing out the door, because before nightfall to several large spots will go in a circle. (Now Paris 5 p.m. half dark) first on the MTR to the Arc de Triomphe. If we say that Europe is "bar road to Rome", Paris is a "bar road passes the Arc de Triomphe". Around the Paris landmark buildings, 12 large and small roads radiate to the streets of Paris. It is said that night of the Arc de Triomphe ablaze, most are spectacular, but unfortunately we have no time to wait until that time, he took a few "to such a tour" photos, you walked along France's Chinese mouth "fragrant Street", that is the way forward on the Champs Elysees Avenue. Speaking of "sweet Street" this name is always made me feel very xiangyan, but this world-famous street, but it is the famous everywhere, but there is nothing special, except for unscrupulous, rampage of pigeons. Go to the Concorde, friend give me explanation, this square how France highlighted in the construction of the atmosphere. Great Plaza, plus statue, fountain, Obelisk, basically is designed to show the strong and built in France. The obelisk, I am not ashamed of France were: Egypt's Antiquities for themselves, but also in the capital Centre of the square, impudence than wall corner also three-inch thick. Go on, Alexander III bridge, the opposite is the magnificent Galeries. From the bridge to look at it in its entirety have felt grandeur, and went to look at the main building, jinqian felt it necessary to have such a scale that deserve a formidable Napoleon. Unfortunately we arrived too late, the main building is closed, no way to see inside the docking of Napoleon and several love of coffins and other relics of Napoleon. The first day of last stop is the symbol of France--the Eiffel Tower. Reach the Tower has a twilight, bought a ticket to climb a layer, tired I grind my teeth and made up his mind back to physical exercise. Then go on to take the lift, the higher the more sat finally reached the top, around the tower for a week, a cow and on the ground that the size of buildings in soya beans for just a few of the visited, as well as future plans to go to a few. Finally an exception from a tower on the post a postcard, in souvenir shops to buy a few things. Evening friends took me to find a good advance a Hunan restaurant eat home cooking. Taste fairly authentic, price is not expensive, it is not surprising that no reservations don't want to get a seat. Finally follow the proprietress by Changsha words with a few words, I was in Singapore or do not feel the hometown flavor, I caught up in Paris. The next day got up early and headed straight for the Highland of Montmartre. This used to be the Centre of Paris, the revolution is now free artist's paradise. The peak of the Sacred Heart Church, potters, magnificent, maps, the headland of divine beauty. That morning have a classic car enthusiast's open their car to the Sacred Heart church door won't think, by the way also opened the horizons. The Louvre is the recent Paris tourist hot spots hot spot, in large part to worship the da Vinci Code ". Friends warned me in advance, the Louvre really go up two or three days after shopping not too, but I am only a short span of three hours, but is headed straight for the key. Largest fragrance ("Mona Lisa", "Miroslav of Venus, the goddess of victory) look down and stops along the look of some, two and a half hours had passed, and only reluctantly gave up on the third floor of oil painting exhibition, there are a few things it would be interesting to see such as the Virgin of the rocks", also had to wait until the next time. Louvre glass pyramid of the square is also, of course, will be taken, although the da Vinci Code "there some say it is" Paris a scar on his face. " Indeed, it seems to me that look to go or do not understand that the design of its moral Ieoh Ming Pei, but it'd be "Louvre entrance" of an image. But we also found a trick: If you are from the ground of the great pyramid entrance to the Louvre, the queue through the security check must take half an hour or so, because almost all of the tours are from the entry into, but if you take the subway to the Louvre, from the ground floor, as long as the line a few minutes of team buy tickets on the line, security almost no one in line. From the Louvre, the subway rush last stop--Notre Dame. Out of the subway station, the way to the Holy Chapel next to the go turned, typical of Gothic architecture, nothing special, get tickets almost caught up with the Louvre, and decided to skip, go straight to the topic. Notre Dame at the main entrance of the Church are rare in Europe is the gate of the entrance, with tall twin towers in Hugo's writings into a clock tower Geek of the stage. The main entrance to the large number of relief, including some fine. Just after Christmas, as the door there is a big Christmas tree Festival. Church inside the Gothic style but the standards, the main hall to the altar, is deep, on either side of the ear of the Church in every color glass are colorful, I so far have been to all of the church there is also a head. A a look at the past, not consciously hold your breath, I do not know is an art or a religion. Finally go to the latter part of Notre Dame, is Gothic, but France's Gothic, Spire and the flying buttress is to join a large number of decorative elements,And pure German style very different. Time flies, a two-day trip to Paris hastily drawn periods, sitting in the plane leaving Paris, I had only one thought: I'll be back!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-8144741504105619918?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/8144741504105619918/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/04/classic-paris.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/8144741504105619918'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/8144741504105619918'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/04/classic-paris.html' title='Classic Paris'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-2978711749191212988</id><published>2011-04-16T00:00:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-16T00:00:55.611-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>"11" by ruiyi with mission also cozy</title><content type='html'>2010 August 10 to 20, I participated in a European economy getting started tour, although with no free lines tuanyou, so arbitrary, but is also a pleasant travel experience, it is worth remembering.

To be honest only watch out will find the theatre very simple. Door looks at recent presentations, see prepare with Chinese pianist Lang Lang to the performances of the Billboard.

Finally go to the wishing pool, legends usually can only make a vow to 3 wishes, but first you must be a "return to Rome," of course we do as the Romans do, throwing three coins make three wishes.

I think the plane will regurgitate, Italy face breakfast as long as two small meal package. &lt;p&gt;Orange juice is to drink a lot, the last aircraft to a large bottle of that haven't finished yet. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;International flights yesterday from Hong Kong flew over the indeed, tableware are much better, but why, Oh, taste or smell of the unit! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Almost haven't hear English, in addition to the captain of the broadcast, that is French, it feels like to come back from Thailand are the whole plane full of feeling of the continental mission, now is the France team. &lt;/p&gt; But the old mission in France. &lt;p&gt;France 9: 15 &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Already bought tickets for the TGV, 11 points in 27 minutes before they drive, and a long wait. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Go to Nice to 17: 30, is the equivalent of more than one day! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;TGV-Nice ville? 87.8 is I to France in the flower first money, to a $ 500 at last people find a half-day, then we know they are almost never seen 500 at last, at last has been regarded as 100. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Originally wanted to call Wei, but he is not in the Office, phone no reaction, with Jing but already pass two phones. &lt;/p&gt; Recall her first when a man came to France, will really be a lot of bitter! then her tears without stopping. &lt;p&gt;Today, I'd have no emotion, but boring out, always is, Ah, Ah, a waste of time! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Well, think of one thing. &lt;/p&gt; The aircraft was worried about how did immigration card, then ask the flight attendant and they said no. Then the aircraft, in channel on only two police check passport, and then is immigration see tickets went too easy! (coming late European territory of the aircraft never to fill entry cards, it seems that this is a habit of Southeast Asia) &lt;p&gt;France 14: 20 &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All the way to the South, to see a large a large field, followed by China railway line more or less the same, different, each Department are the scenery. &lt;/p&gt; Some fields are in the middle of a large forest, there are rows of Windbreak, seldom, never the House, and the occasional car in Tanabe. &lt;p&gt;TGV speeds are very fast, known as the world's fastest train. &lt;/p&gt; But may be old, sitting inside feeling with train almost, but very quiet. Aisle and seating is not spacious — for people in France. &lt;p&gt;There are 3 hours! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Imagine seeing Jing time must give her a deeply embrace. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Haha, just say train almost, immediately make a big joke, the original of each car's door will automatically close after, I'm still trying to make you broke it, and the whole carriage of people look at me, originally oriental face dramatic enough already, blush! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Alas, the next thing is bad. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Come to Nice, a few young people come to know the bus up and down by almost all the 1960 years old is too old, the young people really rare, one of the handsome guy gave me a look, my scope with a smile. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Is this a laugh, he asked me to produce a similar police or inspectors of the document, and then to search my luggage. &lt;/p&gt; They asked me if I had more than 7500 items value or cash. My answer: No. &lt;p&gt;“You sure?” &lt;/p&gt; “Yes” &lt;p&gt;Then they began to open my luggage, one by one. &lt;/p&gt; Fortunately, I had a lot of neat, classification to find out that my body was 1 thousand euro, when he looked at my wallet, see $ 5 on Mao's portrait, excitedly told: "Chairmen Mao?" &lt;p&gt;Then stop here, although it didn't happen, but the feeling arises spontaneously, the journey was unhappy in excitement. &lt;/p&gt; (Later with Jing, she said that some people are dedicated to check visitors impersonating, be sure to see the documents, but no losses, should not be a fake. ） &lt;p&gt; 17: 50 and finally to a Nice ville. A car, a tunnel, finally saw Jing. &lt;/p&gt; Or symbolically adopt a bit. &lt;p&gt;They live from the station, 10 minutes away. &lt;/p&gt; Six-storey apartment, a room with kitchen and bathroom, UCH Sparrow is small. &lt;p&gt;In the evening take me in the evening the blue coast in a paragraph, then the Town Hall Square, the Church and see a few eye, to the street to find food. &lt;/p&gt; Here is a famous resort in France, although it is autumn, not a season, but one or many.

The reality is that not everyone has enough time to taste, so for many people, even though your own heart and did not want to, or in one or two day tour of Paris, such as my current trip. &lt;p&gt;Time limit in a two-day, we would not be so comprehensive, only take into account the need to go, a little bit of such as Versailles, Disneyland, and so on can only be left to the future, the rest probably inventory, a day trip to include the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, the Louvre, Concorde square, Notre Dame, the Sacre Coeur Basilica, the Moulin Rouge, Champs, national theatre of Opera and Lafayette shopping center, take a look at this list, is that enough crazy day? Yes, one day, the horse fast enough! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Previous night start planning, from the hotel receptionist took a stack of travel information, including a map of Paris, take a look at the line with the mission, many, times seem adequate, spending 20 Europe cheap, it is not expensive conversion down, but I am your personality, along with mission is not to play games, so I'm going to self-help. &lt;/p&gt; Traffic way choose Paris most widely acclaimed by subway, in fact you can only select Metro, Paris taxi so far as domestic, standing at the roadside and at hand had no docked points where you are, and so long as the vehicle, we cannot take a finite amount of time wasted about car cars find docked points above. &lt;p&gt;Thus opened the map, locate where you want to go, red label, the original long candidate list onto the map, the range becomes much smaller, the original is not so difficult to imagine, Paris also has a similar Beijing's central axis, the Arc de Triomphe, Champs Elysees, the Concorde, the Louvre, Notre Dame de Paris on the axis; the Opera and the Eiffel Tower on both sides, but broken down a few points of distance; the Basilica and the Moulin Rouge, a bit far, but you can also go directly to the Arc de Triomphe on the subway, the planning has been completed, quickly went to bed, the second day of the tour to the spirit enough. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;About seven in the morning, wash the comb after waking up, eat breakfast at the hotel, which can be drunk to eat, which once went out to lunch also does not necessarily come? 7: 40 official starting! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;First explanation about the place of departure, I live in Suresnes, hotel in Xsara River, from the Paris-La Defense is not too far away. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;First hotel near the T2 station, buy a ticket on the day of travel, our previous column of attractions and points of departure, buy one to three is enough, a day, 6 euros more, remember to keep point coin, vending only steel beng (ticket machine default is French, the English version, try to know what to do, not difficult). &lt;/p&gt; It is not, or you can get a ticket to La Defense to buy, there are manual ticket office. Don't want to flee, they buy a one-way ticket to Europe 1.4 actually also not, I look at T2 on 90% of people not taking the initiative to brush, just ask a heart! La Defense is a huge traffic hub, N number of transport in this collection, please clarify direction, particularly with the generic vote, there will be able to go, but let a little relaxed, wrong and then out of chant, without much took Silver, and this kind of psychological can hinder, silver is not much that can be valuable time. Therefore, before entering each gate, find out what they have to take the time and the long is spent here but not value. My plan is to go to Notre Dame, M1 and Rer A can, prior examined, ReR station, faster, and, of course, selected it. To get off at Chatelet Les Halles, outbound, should have many fine buildings, do not spend too much time, and soon you'll find that Paris is such everywhere (which is also a need to be carefully taste one of the reasons), or to the day's goal-oriented, control the map looking for direction to Notre Dame de Paris (St Michel Notre-Dame) toward the right. She is in the Centre of a Xsara River Island, there are other buildings, linger, 8: 50, I stood in front of Notre Dame de Paris. This article describes the trip, no more talk about feeling, come back soon for two weeks, many things are still in the aftertaste. &lt;p&gt;In the Church for 50 minutes, you can stroll along the River to the Louvre Zaina, walk around the direction more than ten minutes, you can see the Louvre, from the side door in, appreciation of this European grand courtyard of the building style, exterior wall sculptures, Ieoh Ming Pei-designed glass pyramid on the eye, not far away is a small arc de Triomphe, and now is about ten o'clock in the morning, from the pyramid, flower 8.5Euro bought tickets, in the help desk to get a piece of Chinese tourist map, begin a journey of Louvre. &lt;/p&gt; Guide map on several must-see baby are marked out, from Sully, medieval Louvre Museum, the ancient Roman sculptures, soon you can see Venus, the goddess of victory, Mona Lisa, the rest is according to their interest in ancient Egypt turned, occupies two 1/4, content is still very much, drawing together accounted for almost two layers, one on the inside, not many people have issued the feelings, the Louvre is too big! time constraints, I ran East channeling, abandoning the West, such as the top level of France, the basement of the Islamic culture, ancient Egypt is also the same as running too. Back to come, go too fast, a lot of stuff just swept through, it would be better to find a few favorite Hall of finely polished. Louvre seemingly only four layers, but structure is complicated, but in which they might not know where to, usually who thinks highly of sense or not. Therefore, or to spend some time thinking about the tourist map, observe the Hall number, it is best to position itself. More than three hours soon slipped away quietly, not tired, never feel hungry, the final farewell to Venus, she is the patron saint of our constellation. From the glass pyramid, all the way forward, Concorde, occasionally also saw France's Ranger, far in the distance of can already towering triumphDoor. In the nearby food store flowers 6euro buy something to eat and drink a bit of simple supplementary energy. The Concorde, but there is a bit away from the Arc de Triomphe, can experience Paris by bus, the bus 73 road, when their travel ticket to show what the driver can, of course, willing to brush nobody stopped you. You can see on the road, near the famous Louis Vuitton shop, this is the advantage of a bus ride. Want to perfume shop shopping can get off at the George V, or to the Charles De Gaulle, under the Arc de Triomphe. Through the 12 main street around the Arc de Triomphe, from all angles to appreciate what this building, which would be more time consuming, every street, traffic lights, then you have to go far to see the Eiffel Tower. &lt;p&gt;Afternoon around into the Metro, take line, get off at the third station to Trocadero, out of the station, turn left at the right point of view, such a high tower could not see it, walk a few steps, turn left, the symbol of Paris, the Eiffel Tower the majestic figure is in front of you, this is a high viewing platform, you can make, you can step up to the high-profile, flower 10.5Euro, wait half an hour can take high-speed elevator to the top of the tower and see Paris scenery, I did not wait, but also feel the decision-making is very correct, because in the back you can see from the Sacre Coeur Basilica in Paris panorama, although not the same, also a bit of compensation. &lt;/p&gt; At this point, our trip is over most of the major labels have all seen, the remaining can according to their own energy, manual adjustments. &lt;p&gt;See the Eiffel Tower, and then back to the Metro, or six lines to get off at Charles De Gaulle, 2 line, get off at the Anvers, outbound is a busy shopping street, you can buy some souvenirs, personal feeling will be cheaper than elsewhere. &lt;/p&gt; Through the shopping pedestrian flow, the Basilica is in front, it's like the White House, the Church is located in the high-yield high top, mengge is a lot of photographers ' favorite. Climb the peak of the welcome, lazy, and car seats, on the slope of the roof, looked back is Paris panorama, the Eiffel Tower is nearby buildings and trees to block, this is Paris, short little house, no tall buildings, but attract countless visitors to return. And Notre Dame, the Sacre Coeur Basilica is not allowed to take pictures of, entering the Church, the first sight is the dome on Jesus arms overlooking the mural of the Earth, that feeling is one of the soul. Out of the Church, go back, is a shopping street and the famous artists ' village, are interested, you can let the artist spent a few minutes for you to a drawing or cartoon version of the photo. The following is the simple procurement slopes a little souvenirs, is about six o'clock, lanterns, and then into the subway line no. 6 (can Bus), get off at two stations to Blanche, you would have to the Moulin Rouge, Quick fast food restaurants in the vicinity of the fill, there is no time to look at the performance, then take the subway back to Charles De Gaulle, A transfer to Auber ReR, get off, national theatre, Lafayette, spring department store is here to catch the early also can do some shopping, it's too late to see if the window was also me, design is art. &lt;p&gt;See here, we are all tired almost away, don't worry, there are also night to see Paris. &lt;/p&gt; Or ride back to Charles De Gualle, you can stroll the night of the Champs Elysees, or you can go by car ran the Eiffel Tower, night more beautiful than the day the Eiffel, especially on ten minutes of Flash, I'm writing limited is described. Only remember that a return trip on an airplane, a man asked everyone, your stay at the tower to 12 o'clock, when the lights are so beautiful, I am so lucky that you all missed? the proud, that I don't have the heart to tell her, and actually start from 8 p.m., every hour will reproduce her in 12 points see extravaganza. Wishes to belong to the atmosphere, it is not just to leave Paris, 11 p.m. Finally dragged the body a brain excitement back to the hotel, arm and leg were unable, his mind still scenes play back about this day can see everything, Paris, I don't want to say goodbye! &lt;p&gt;Summary: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Paris's attractions more intensive, planning, or in a short time after the &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Paris is full of beautiful scenery, a few days only enough to look at, even fur are touched on &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you want to feel something, consider a subway car, than it is for you to imagine a more easy and convenient &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What's the problem, though ask people around you, most of France who was very friendly, especially for the likes of Paris Paris praise &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Seen a lot of people say Paris metro station people don't speak English, the fact that this is not the case of &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Look, sink down to, you will have a completely different feel &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Time also don't worry, if the wrong but more a waste of time &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Paris Metro sign is occasionally difficult to start might not understand, it is best to ask question &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To see the details to understand Paris, it is best to live there for a year &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-1776780616486975690?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/1776780616486975690/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/04/self-service-shopping-paris-1.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/1776780616486975690'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/1776780616486975690'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/04/self-service-shopping-paris-1.html' title='Self-service shopping Paris 1'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-182316533300693307</id><published>2011-04-08T22:29:00.003-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-08T22:29:07.380-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>European semi-self-help tour (1): London-Paris</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;London-Paris &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Previous: European semi-self-help tour (Primer): our alternative tourism &lt;p&gt;Location: travel gonglue-Italy &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Our one day in advance to the London Congnuo dinghan, occupancy Wake-up London youth hostels. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; The next morning the rest at the youth hostel at the door.

When the car through the tunnel into the Paris urban area, my first reaction was: "and the" Shanghai too similar, a closeness. But Paris and Shanghai is really too much difference! tell the truth, Paris Street how beautiful, but is not, the Champs Elysees Risha Street which is magnified Hengshan Road number one ranking brand shops, little more than a few bike. In contrast, Barcelona's main street, proceed even more beautiful. &lt;p&gt;Paris Seine, really didn't say! Eiffel Tower is 100% of the spectacular and romantic! just one too many!, along the Seine from the Eiffel Tower, to the Louvre direction, cross-strait picturesque like Parisian building, Elysee Palace, Osei Palace, universities, the Louvre, but he is a bridge with a bridge, but in the center of the island, is the old Notre Dame, this is also the origin of Paris. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Arc de Triomphe is a good "triumph"! magnificent stands in a do not know how many roads of Central. &lt;/p&gt; Paris is a city full of surprises, all the way along, occasionally a rise, see a Museum, to not turn around to see the Opera House, living in Paris City Center, is art sculpture everywhere. &lt;p&gt;Paris Street artist is also a King, is world famous. &lt;/p&gt; They stood in the place where visitors intensive, if you look at it, it'll be someone hold you to your portrait painting, or drawing a lot of scenic, Paris and others to buy it!, it's probably really is thousands of years in Paris, art, make more and more artists brought together here, to pursue their artistic dreams! &lt;p&gt;To Paris, you can't miss the Museum. &lt;/p&gt; Louvre really is pretty good, but the square "glass pyramid" is ridiculous. Visit a lot of people, I am a 20-metre barrier, enjoying the "Mona Lisa" Leonardo da Vinci. Louvre in tour, I thought worked with Louvre par of Beijing circle Ming Yuan, but for more than 100 years ago the aggressor to light the fire, our circle Ming Yuan must be more brilliant. &lt;p&gt;Versailles palace is a hunting palace, Louis XIV will all major things moved to Versailles. &lt;/p&gt; It enjoys splendid, magnificent! medieval Paris artists really is genius. &lt;p&gt;Sacred Heart Hospital built in Montmartre heights of vertex, funny is Paris famous red light district is going to the Sacred Heart Hospital only, this seems to be a coincidence. &lt;/p&gt; Sacred Heart square it is a holy and wonderful feeling, the Sacred Heart Hospital's name to obtain a very appropriate! &lt;p&gt;Maybe Paris Eiffel Tower too spectacular, perhaps the Seine landscape is charming, maybe the Louvre are so beautiful, maybe the Arc de Triomphe too impressive, maybe Paris artists too hard ... &lt;/p&gt; Maybe there are too many perhaps, that I forget myself, even Paris Street burgled my backpack to the wallet, I have no idea. Maybe this is another characteristic of the Paris Bar, it gave me the Paris trip adds a memory, at the same time, also left a regret. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-8788738507093790043?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/8788738507093790043/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/04/european-line-of-street-view-over-paris.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/8788738507093790043'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/8788738507093790043'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/04/european-line-of-street-view-over-paris.html' title='European line of street view over Paris'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-2918306970147200234</id><published>2011-04-03T07:09:00.005-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-03T07:09:51.511-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>Look at the map to play Paris-August 28 (bottom)</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;BRACIEUX Lachaise Cemetery (Cimetière du Père Lachaise), Père Lachaise free M &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the Bastille, and eventually mobilized companion to BRACIEUX Lachaise Cemetery. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; It is a holy land with the Paris Commune, is likely to be young in the science of things to remember in jail now, is it so hard to remember so strange names should completely to heart. There are 100 days of the Paris Commune, finally failed, in a week of fierce hand-to-hand fighting, the last batch of commune members in BRACIEUX Lachaise Cemetery northeast corner of the wall were reactionary army massacres. Lachaise father cemetery of this wall has witnessed the eternal spirit of the Paris Commune, he was later known as the "Paris Commune soldiers wall". &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We from Bastille (Bastille) station take the M8 → rpublique Père Lachaise M3 → change. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Here is the East of Paris, seen from the map should not be in the city centre, very few people in the street, there are always cut road boards, control over the map to see the road sign, nice find location, but because it is not a regular tourist spots so there is no sign, but the graveyard and housing, is a tall stone wall, at the corner of axially in both directions, not knowing which side should be to find the gate. Later on, or watch the map on the graveyard road, mistakenly hit a top dog, sure enough, there is a small door, the door or not to tag, but a sight in mimizaza's Tomb prove Lachaise father cemetery is here. A middle-aged man at the door of a very rough paper, English-speaking colleagues said: it seems to be a graveyard location map, French, do not understand. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Into the graveyard, realized that although the Earth has 6 billion people, but of the living space is also regarded as carry-on. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; At home I have never been to a cemetery babaoshan, grandparents are at home, and both died early, no impression; secondly not participated in the activities of the martyr wreath. Here the road between the cemetery is very narrow like Paris streets, street is overlapping stack's Tomb, and not like a TV in the us as the tomb of neatness. Tomb makes it endowed with some tall cross, some as Egypt square minaret, some like Greece, some with Oriental flavor, more de-centralized no Ogata. New old tomb is overlapped, not to mention the phase difference between the Pro's two hundred years, the same was also buried at before and after two hundred years of the same family's genealogy. Tomb of care also vary considerably, and some are covered with MOSS and cleanly. In the sunny afternoon sun, the couch everywhere are often able to see the woman who sits in the long (really a true man never seen), and a tomb was a woman full of flowers. Some stay in Paris for the Chinese people to be buried here, most of them indicate the origin of "Zhejiang ruian" burial time mostly 20 world after the 1990s. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Wander Lachaise father cemetery has not that kind of a dark atmosphere, broad like OASIS-like place, is a good place to go for a walk. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Can't tell a visitor or a visitor, or researchers, all of them are very easily, with slopes, vegetation of the area began to increase, a little planning before trace, in a city like Memorial Hall (about the entire cemetery only locked building)-like building a rest before the old woman asked the two sides of the Paris Commune wall, English is not good, finally understand what she said hour heard, but did not remember exactly where. Has been in the evening at six, the entire cemetery is to not over, stranger, can't stay out too late, say cemetery closed earlier than Café, if not my feet hurt, anyway to find Paris Commune wall. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Although not always in the history of the world, only hours are functional political era 's, to the brain carved into the scene, visit Paris Zhuang's drama is also considered responses, Ying, practice what they have learned. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Last year, Brecht's Opera "the Paris Commune of days" in Beijing, giving, it seems there are people who remember the period is the period of Marx's highly praised "forever in the working class of great heart", but not only space far away time also receding history ... &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(The signs) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(A bit like in the Pavilion lounge) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Like a neighborhood bar) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(To the graves of old

scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>爱上他的忧伤－－梵高墓地</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;一直以来，我是一个不懂艺术的人。所以每次有人问我喜欢哪个画家，就总是说的同一个名字----文森特梵高，但是其实我很不好意思,因为喜欢梵高的人太多了。他的向日葵，他的阿尔的星空，他的自画像等等，这成了一个稍微知道点绘画知识的人的基本常识。&lt;p&gt;没有什么特别的, 而我不是个纯粹的鉴赏者，也不是为了附庸风雅,我不过是一个平凡的女子，一定要说喜欢的理由,我想我是喜欢他骨子里面绝望而孤独.我理解那种不被认可的痛苦.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;我爱上他的画里面的沉重而浓咧的色彩,如同他对这个世界的爱,悲凉的爱.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;所以一直想去他的墓地看，旅欧三年，已经对景点没有兴趣，喜欢自己去一些小地方， 那天郊区火车开的并不快,车窗外风景很清晰,已经开始有一点点的小雨,零星地落在车窗上面.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;下车后,发现奥瓦兹河沿岸的风景非常漂亮,河里有很多鸭子.河中间有个美丽的小岛,岛上有很多绿色的垂柳.还有不少法国人在河里划船,走过废弃的火车头,景色一变,忽然明媚起来,小山丘上面开满了红色的花朵, 满山满野,非常艳丽.好像是罂束花-----这个传说中有着最妖艳的色彩,最毒的果实的花.满山遍野都是盛开着红色的花朵,像一团鲜艳的火,是那种放荡的红色,有着说不出的诱惑.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;雨终于小了下来. 到达了Auvert sur-Oise,天也非常合作的放晴了.这是一个宁静的小镇,家家有花,沿途的景色极为漂亮,墙上有很多蜗牛,几乎处处都可以入画.建筑都很有味道.有条铺满紫花的小径,有面盛开献花的灰墙。&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;这个小镇零星散落了凡高身前的生活片断,他画的上吊人之家,他画的房子.这里是他最后生活的地方. 我想像着他拿着画架，光着头走过大街。有着几乎疯狂的眼睛。想像着他望着女人时的几乎贪婪的神情。想像着他破烂的衣衫和他拖沓的总是脏兮兮的脸。想像着满脸没有一点男人的傲气只不过像只卑微的蚂蚁似的与邻人说话。心里一阵酸楚. 然而这就是命运吧。你无法去责备高更最后用那么恶毒的语言去伤害他。你无法责备女人们多对他躲避不及，你也无法去责备连他的父亲都对他忍无可忍。如果上天让他成为文森特梵高，就不会赐与他被人爱的天份。&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;没有人爱他,然而他却依旧执著爱着我们和我们所构造的这个所谓世界。他曾经那样躁动不安的灵魂是如何感动了后来的人.那样疯狂的色彩, 强烈而扭曲的形象，展示的却是绝望,痴迷.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;让我想起.大家知道在巴黎很多学习艺术的,音乐,绘画,设计.也许有的人一生都不会画出一副好画,写出一首名曲,但是如果那是自己喜欢的事情,再大的代价又何妨.那些为了梦想而宁愿潦倒一生的人,我深深地尊敬他们.这份尊敬和震动其实与其说是旅行见闻,不如说是来自巴黎生活的体验.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;也许我们都是异乡的流浪者,我们都在漂泊和停驻.狂欢-----不过是一群人的孤单.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;然后我们到达了凡高纪念馆,里面有一些展览.是以前居民的用品,当然还有一些凡高的作品介绍.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;然后我们就到底一个城堡,这是一个1640年的意大利人建的城堡.里面有新人在结婚,典型的法国婚礼，穿着华丽的服装站在美丽的城堡前，宛若梦境。&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;我们继续上路.到达了那片著名的麦田,其实这片和中国的麦田并无什么分别,一样的辽阔.只是因为那幅著名的画.凡高37岁那年的7月，在画完《麦田群鸦》之后，他就站在这里用子弹结束了自己的生命. 他用一把左轮手枪压在自己的腹部，扣动了扳机。可是并没有立刻死去,鲜血染红了这片麦田.乌鸦掠过. 那一年的麦田一定是十分的美丽,一如现在.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;总是想象不出那个阳光灿烂的下午，那个邻居们再也无法忍受的男人，是怀着怎样的勇气来结束自己潦倒的一生,他没有立刻死去,在他弟弟的怀里痛苦挣扎了一个晚上才死去。那个曾经原谅了人们对他的憎恨，并一直坚信自己终究有一天会被理解的天才。他的心里是什么样的一种信念? 当他最后的朋友离他而去,而他清醒的时刻越来越少的时候，那一刻，他在想什么呢？他终于坚持不下去了.无法不被爱地苟活下去，他无法眼睁睁的，看着他那么热爱的是生活一步步陷入一片混沌疯狂之中,所以他选择了绝觉地离去.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;这也许就是他打动我们每一个人的地方。一个深刻的知道自己是不被爱的人，却依然渴望着沟通和爱的孤独灵魂。一个被朋友，亲人，爱人所轻视和鄙视的人，却依然热爱着生活。所以他的画才有那样的光波流泻的星空，那样的撒满阳光的花朵。也才有那样的另人心酸的孤独，那样的震人心扉的苦难。它们就这样被搅碎了，揉进这个丑陋男人心灵中，那是无人理解的悲哀，画布上的斑驳是他的渴望爱的倾诉,那些永远不会被理解的倾诉。&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;在他死后,印象派忽然大受推崇,给予了无上的荣光.他仍被视为疯癫的,然而人们却爱了他的疯癫了。并且给了他一生终其所有想得到的一点点承认和肯定，甚至比他想要的多的多的多的爱，这真是一个莫大的讽刺。&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;我常常和朋友讨论生命的意义,，看那星空，看那麦田，看那太阳花，那群削土豆的农民，还有那个缺了一只耳朵的男人。我忽然觉得自己的渺小，但生命依旧是短暂而宝贵的，因为我们还活着，所以我们要快乐的活着,看着身边欢呼雀跃的伙伴们,不由心动.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;一行人在麦田逗留了一下,就到达了凡高的墓地.很简单的墓地,并排两个他和他的弟弟.这个时候天空开始下雨,似乎也觉得悲哀.有人给他的坟墓献花,有人细心地捡起掉下的麦穗.他一定不会知道,他死了之后,会有这样川流不息的人来朝拜谈论他他. 人们谈论着画中的梵高，书中的梵高。仿佛他们都是懂得他的人。然而，这个一生不曾被除了弟弟提奥以外第二个人爱的男人，不被爱才是他的永恒. 自杀者总是被叹息或者被指责为不负责任的。但是没有人指责他，他已经太痛苦了,让他的灵魂得到安息吧。&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;他生下来。&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;他画画。&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;他死去。&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;麦田里一片金黄，&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;一群乌鸦惊叫着飞过天空。&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;——波得莱尔&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;离开那片麦田的时候,一个法国老太头告诉我们,在这片麦田里面摘七只麦穗捆起来,扎好,是幸运的意思,这是当地的一种说法.而且晚上还有晚会,人们会穿着传统服饰.我们很虔诚地摘下七束麦穗.握在手里,闻起来似乎还有清香.好像和平的橄榄枝.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;然后经过他画的那个教堂,里面很安静,但是也很简单,接下来路过是凡高故居,但是已经变的非常商业化.在准备疾走前,在一个hotel de ville 我们看见还有新人结婚,穿着传统服饰,真的好贵族,而且在这里拍了合照.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;继续往前走穿越了森林,无意间发现一片金色的麦田.开阔小麦田里铺了无尽的金光，又折回深蓝的天空，和煦的暖风吹过,我们被燃烧的原野迷住了.真的很值得一看的风景.白云静止，大路朝天，风倒挂其上，似已多年。世界在悄悄地改变他的色彩，而我们这些生动的人，正用不慌不忙的色板，不留痕迹地涂抹命运的花园。&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;我们在麦田里面逗留了很久.自然拍了很多的照片,那成熟的麦穗,沉甸甸的,有着温暖的触感,丰收的感觉.而我们一行人或者在独处时沉思，沉思成一首首伤感温柔的易安词，沉思成一段段水声潺潺的夜曲；或者我们在舒坦自然中相处，演绎出一首首嘻笑怒骂的绝句，倾泻出一阵阵从心所欲的疾风骤雨。我们在雨里打听阳光的踪迹，又在晴朗里面，怀念微雨的叹息。&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;虽然已经是夏天,但是仍然是一派春光明媚的景色,真的很是赏心悦目.还是沿途的一个湖畔,让人觉得巴黎最美丽的地方不在城市，而是在郊区。河边有两只大白鹅,悠闲自在。这个时候已经满疲倦了,我想，也许我们不再相见,也许还有新的交集,只要想起时候，可以明媚的微笑。足够。&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;最后附上这首vincent&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Starry, starry night&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Paint your palette blue and gray&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Look out on a summer's day&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With eyes that know the darkness in my soul&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Shadows on the hills&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sketch the trees and the daffodils&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Catch the breeze and the winter chills&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In colors on the snowy linen land&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chorus:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now I understand&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What you tried to say to me&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How you suffered for your sanity&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How you tried to set them free&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;They would not listen they did not how&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Perhaps they'll listen now&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Starry, starry night&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Flaming flowers that

be sure to learn English; grow and speaks in a outlet only half cooked English, swamps, where in Asia; when learned most English I, do prepare to go to Europe, the language is not in the list of my need to prepare. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To Europe, where most people don't speak English. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In Greece, Italy and Switzerland, in addition to airport, railway stations and hotels, tourist frequented by a family place, street 70-80% of people do not speak English. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; When you try to talk with them, passionate people, Italy will be poured out to you that for a while, and then look at you puzzled look laugh; France Paris is where English comparative popularity, Sunday we went to visit the Eiffel Tower, jam-packed, visit to line up on the Tower 2 hours, waiting in a queue of suddenly saw a woman of Asian appearance, not ask questions of the visitors: "Can you speak English?" So amazing is that almost all the visitors of the way with his head to answer her, I couldn't help but think of all the visitors will not be English? Paris people very passionate, how such indifference? here is to think that a woman came to me and ask me the same question, so I nodded and said "Yes", imagine she handed me a piece of paper, bow, I saw above in English at her with old, there are small, poor intersection, the siege of Paris, no money home and so on .... now I'm embarrassed to say I only speak English, is actually an illiterate and had to give her a few euros. At that time, just like the original here speak English will have to be paid for; later discovered that their company has a lot of people, in the same way, most visitors will know the secret, so are his head; after that time, I also learned a good, if you have any questions ask, then also not used "Can you speak English?" This sentence. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In Greece the street and finally found a person who can speak English, ask me how to go away, I asked him a question: why most Greece one speak English? "he smiles of Socrates: why we asked me to speak English to Greece? I really can't answer, you can't say you convenience I should learn English? had to smile said: bye-bye. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is typical of Socrates Exchange to Europe before, gave preparations, read some history books, which have such a period: &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Socrates teaching health and never give them a ready-made answer, but to ask and refute method allows students to unknowingly accept his ideas. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; For example: &lt;p&gt;Students: Socrates, what is good? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Socrates: theft, fraud, trafficking in human beings as slaves, the behavior is good or evil? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Students: is evil. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Socrates: deceive the enemy is evil? the enemy of the prisoners to sold as slaves is evil? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Students: this is good. &lt;/p&gt; However, I mean friends rather than enemies. Socrates: as you said, the theft of a friend is evil. However, if a friend to suicide, you stole his prepared from killing tools, this is evil? students: is good. &lt;p&gt;Socrates: you said is evil to his friends, but deception in war, the Army Commander for morale, the soldiers say, reinforcements is just around the corner. &lt;/p&gt; But virtually no reinforcements, this spoofing is evil? &lt;p&gt;Students: this is good. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Greece is the cradle of Western civilization, there are after Socrates and Aristotle Euphrates figure, Euphrates schema love self-contained, Aristotle's logic as a young man makes me very mad, now remember one question: is there a Barber, he only to those who do not give their people a haircut, hair asked him not to give himself a haircut? &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Back to the hotel, I started thinking, what I was to learn English? School of English is compulsory, not science, and English was very fashionable, English well, students will high reading you. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Work continued to learn because want to go abroad, working abroad, after is not required; all in all I learned not to learn English because got certain benefits, if not good, I might also adhere to today. Is not most people learn English like I do, I do not know; Sage said: the gentleman knows what is right, the villain knows what is profitable, it seems that I am not a gentleman. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;English, popular in the world, began to benefit from the United Kingdom's colonial rule; in modern is due to the strong United States, some statistics, 80% of the high-tech terms from English; just think, if the Chinese people learning English skills are used in the development of economic and scientific research that may one day world will wander the learn Chinese. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The EU is self-contained, and not dependent on American, continental Europe and the world aspire to, so they may think that to learn English, learn French, German or Spanish, and so much more affordable. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

But always remember a deep place, where the sky a bit with a hint of the smell, the original Paris not only of the Seine river water shuttle quietly history. &lt;p&gt;Lachaise father cemetery is such a place. &lt;/p&gt; Tourists usually rarely come to visit this place, because this city has too many palaces and pavilions, which have no time like the graveyard this place. A little common sense people must have heard of it, the cemetery's reputation is buried here is for dozens of artists or celebrities, who came to visit some of tend to be attracted to later ages. Cemetery gates at the entrance there is a sign that there is a stack for visitors access-map, map marked with dozens of famous grave position, in the list you can find the Balzac, Chopin and many famous long name. Cemetery impression is always heavy, even on sunny days, it is always a deep breath, only silence walk which will not get disrupted after the long-dead. Here's a very lush trees, the sky obscured somewhat bleak, the cemetery is very large, walk along the horizontal and orderly arranged like a calm in the city of exception, only the street residents are different. Curtain and side with one simple wall, is a member of the Paris Commune 147 old tombstones. History of bit by bit, you may inadvertently encounter with you here. &lt;p&gt;Many tombstones are quite nice, and repairs some commemorative text and epitaph carved powder, most of the catacombs is very exquisite craftsmanship, visible to friends buried here are mostly affluent sectors. &lt;/p&gt; Cemetery you can also find some civilian sectors of the ashes of Tomb walls. Accidentally walked to a cemetery of the wall, looking at the hands of figure, so here's a great name, turned down the serial number to find, and eventually discovered that name-Isadora · Duncan. The world-renowned dance Queen, the life of the many joys and sorrows and Fengyun, sleep in one of the famous cemetery so ordinary tomb wall corner. There are attracted to Duncan's Tomb cartridge door ruled out of its long and sad: "in my dreams I was dancing with Duncan. "One of the world have a significant impact on the art of dance, its outcome was calm was surprising. &lt;p&gt;Priest in the Lachaise Cemetery, you will feel the life of another, looked up at the lush foliage of the local sky among exposed, it so clearly with a hint of the color of the dignified. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-2113176289684985298?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/2113176289684985298/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/color-of-sky.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/2113176289684985298'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/2113176289684985298'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/color-of-sky.html' title='The color of the sky'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-8812581168512832779</id><published>2011-03-27T03:10:00.011-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-27T03:10:38.721-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>Experience France</title><content type='html'>Reached France after the fourth day, the evening on May 5, bath, sitting on the bed, would like to take a few days in France, in Paris, is the exact feeling down, and began to write this article "feelings of the French". Articles most complete in Paris between Arthur train. &lt;p&gt;This is not a running tally as travels, but thoughts of summary. Mainly divided into religious, political, artistic, cultural, and other sections. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;First thing to say is religion. France is a Christian-oriented countries. The Christian God Jesus (status similar to Buddhism in shijia Muni, this easy-to-understand explanation of some), another is the Virgin Mary (corresponds to the Buddhist bodhisattva)-throughout the whole law, but the most famous Notre Dame is of the same name by Hugo novel and famous of Notre Dame. The front and took nearly two hundred years to build the Cathedral is typical of Gothic architecture, holds the Bell Tower, the Tower, each door and side is covered with fine sculpture. Although after 700 years of wind and rain erosion, still magnificent splendor. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;At eight o'clock in the morning to church bells ringing, I arrived at the Notre Dame de Paris. Get door to go quietly into, a red priest was preaching. NOK large Chapel, it is estimated that can hold hundreds of people, but only a spatter of dozens, or sitting or kneeling, devoutly followed Bishop at. Although they do not understand what the bishop told, just think of rhythmic patterns, was good. Listen to a little while, stand up and go in a circle, surrounded by paintings and statues that are relevant to the Virgin Mary, former candlestick, tourists or believers spend two euros you can pick up a candle lit, dedicated to the Virgin. So how do you see how the Virgin as Guanyin bodhisattva. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The Church is a major event held in monks, such as marriage, the emperor was crowned, funerals, etc. Archbishop status respectable. It is said that Louis XIV ascended the throne when young, then Archbishop by the red, visible on behalf of the ruling religious forces. For me, and other non-Christians, most worth viewing is the superb building technology, exquisite exquisite sculpture, painting and painted glass. Each Church above the Central Gate has a diameter of several meters of large round window, known as "the rose window". There is a painted glass, painted biblical story, color photography. The most famous is referred to as the "Paris jewel" of the Church of St. Charles Belle color glass. Dangyang off through the glass radiation came in, red, yellow, green, bursting out various light, colorful, Mellon décor. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Visit the Loire area after the medieval castle and found within each Castle will have a small church, and every city will have a grand style, carved Church, visible religious people living in it is an integral part of. Remember the beginning of the year in Malaysia, wherever, there must be a magnificent mosque Church, in accordance with the Sharia, five times a day, the voice of the chant, going out on time. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Thus think of what is the State religion in China? Buddhism, Taoism, Muslim religion, Christianity? Are the believers, but none can dominate. Thus, the entire people of faith, belief in the absence of the vacuum, perhaps this is also a great journey, such as Falun Gong road can be one of the reasons. People always need spiritual sustenance. When Mao Zedong's cultural revolution of the cult of personality as the end, but the disintegration of the whole nation in up to 20 to 30 years in addition to the "money", you will no longer unified integration belief, sad, alas. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Secondly, you want to talk about France's regime and democracy. The history of the rule of the French era, the longest is the Bourbon dynasty, before and after going through more than ten kings, subversion in the Louis XVI period, i.e. the 17 th century. The ultimate symbol of Royal power domination is located in the Paris suburb of Versailles. It was Louis XIII riding hunting palace, after Louis XIV collection national architects, architect, painter, sculptor and skilled artisans, lasted for fifty years, built into the largest, most luxurious palaces. Until today, Versailles is still one of the world's largest and most luxurious palaces. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Out of the subway, we see this very far to magnificent architecture, the gate stands for the Sun King Louis XIV on horseback statue, a pair of Chi-satisfaction, confident look. According to the record, he ascended the throne only five years old at the time of year, Archbishop by red skin for ruling. After the Bishop's death, Louis XIV young will chikamasa. Initially, the Kings and Ministers who didn't put the young monarch haughty, but he soon demonstrated strong wrist, consolidated the kingship. He is member of 54 years, 30 years of hard work, expanding the territory. Intrauterine has a Hall hanging a dozen paintings, exhibited in the largest is the battle scene. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;At the same time, Chinese history also has an experience similar to the Emperor-Kangxi. &lt;/p&gt; (He ascended the throne, in bits, 60 years). The same is juvenile chikamasa, likewise is ambitious, similarly to rule the kingship to free-for-all. Quite a coincidence, I went to Versailles in a unilateral is held and the exhibition of the Kangxi Emperor, known as "the forbidden city in Versailles". (Perhaps because in 2004 is the year for the culture of France's sake). Exhibits, but are quite rare. A Louis XIV's Chinese collections, has been Chair of the Kangxi Emperor, the most interesting is a closure easy 14 letter to Emperor Kangxi, estimates have fretted means. Visible, then the two countries have established the ambassadorial level contacts. &lt;p&gt;Versailles palace luxury dream screened here since you do not have to, whether it be wonderful sculptures, paintings, beautiful atmosphere of the furniture, the monarchy and the Queen are vivid portraits, worked in a post-war treaty concluded "Versailles" mirror Hall, or the famous Le valve design for geometry Garden, the Seine river water pumping height of 150 meters built fountains, etc., are so amazing. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;But all ages this class &lt;/p&gt;EPIC's works often become a fuse of the doom dynasty, as qinshi King wall, excavation of sui yangguang, artificial Canal Angkor Empire exhaustive nationwide manpower, material resources, building 400 year calendar, Angkor Wat, led to the off State, and so on. The Versailles France eventually led to the revolution. &lt;p&gt;Revolution by Bastille riots started, a single spark instant start a prairie fire. Angry crowd surrounded the Versailles, the King and Queen he fled. But in the end, including Louis XVI, Queen Anne Antoinette, hundreds of nobility was executed. Execution location i.e. Lu captives Palace not far from the Concorde (also known as the Revolution Square). Now walk in the spacious square, but see two big fountain in the Shui ducks play, people just sitting on the floor reading gossip, entertaining, horseriding's guards to patrol a symbolic, a serene, long lost those bloody past of King. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This is a kind of ethnic, dare to send his Emperor Guillotine? The French national spirit can concentrate in three words: Liberte freedom, equality, Fraternite Eqalite fraternity. The first time I saw them at the door of the Sorbonne University law school, and later on in the Town Hall, hospitals, and other government agencies on the door again and again to see the three words. They initially were made in France after the publication of "the great free declaration", after the introduction of independent United States of America. Straight to become modern Western society, the cornerstone of the human spirit. New York statue of liberty is independent of the centennial of the United States, France gave the gift of the people of the United States, has now become a New York and the symbol of the United States, Paris has a similarly of the statue of liberty, just because small and unobtrusive. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;It was this three words declares the national pride of the bone marrow in depth, romance and unyielding. Also it is free and the relentless pursuit of democracy, the only time of the revolution and restoration until the General de Gaulle to establish the Fifth Republic. In many European countries such as United Kingdom, Belgium, Netherlands, Spain, etc. also retaining the monarchy today, France is the most radical Republicanism. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;France revolution, established the first Republic soon will come to an end, after the restoration of the Republic and to the cycle, during which it is for an awesome reputation of Napoleon, his restoration success crowned Emperor (a bit like China's Yuan Shi-kai). Napoleon I and Louis XIV as aggression and dilated, and started a new round of East-West seminars. Arc de Triomphe is winning the return in order to meet the army built, standing at the top of the door wall, close your eyes and imagine that inundated the victorious, Horn players, amid cheers of pageantry, eyes, and saw a radial spread of 12 Street, Arc de Triomphe has become the best ornamental Paris attractions tourists. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;No, the Arc de Triomphe built, Napoleon had died in exile in Helena, thirty years after his death, his remains from the Arc de Triomphe, and was buried in the Invalides. Military manned Galeries solemn, buried Napoleon and he lives on the brothers. But because of the war dead and more than thousands. To mangled mageguoshi is regarded as a soldier's honour. More then died of disease, hunger, cold, captives, and so on. According to the record, Napoleon wanted to cross the Italian border of the Alps to enter the territory of Italy, but hundreds of thousands of troops then disappear from the Alps of the boundless mountains, died of cholera, cold or hunger, for various reasons have divergent views. One of the famous Caesar, true million! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Invalides also houses the reception and then in the first world war, World War II killed the generals. It now has turned into a military museum. In a Memorial Hall, I saw the banner of the world, there are a few faces belong to ancient China, says traditional word of Zhang and Zhao, side order flag (don't know where to get them to the baby). This thought, whether he is brilliant and glory, died but dust. As in the "species" Yue Fei write: 8 February yunhe Rd., 30 years of success and dust and soil. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;However, a nation needs a hero, heroes, history need all my life, historians such as ye not unemployment? &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;French history, another famous national hero is Joan of arc. England and France during the hundred years ' war, the legendary maiden, who was only who play at the age of up to save the nation's responsibility. Rate of the British army in Orleans, and instigate fights off was weak and incompetent road hospital seven crowned (the Louvre has a painting showing the scene). Joan of arc was sentenced to death. Today, Joan has become the patron saint of Paris, the Pantheon (the ancestral Foundation pioneer martyrs) has her statue, for posterity, Revere. Can be described as the "great health, died a glorious". &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Next, you want to say that culture and art. France people's talent and achievements of amazing. Of course, Paris has much more than France's artistic achievement, more European writers, thinkers, artists and the brilliant results. We all know, the Renaissance (XV, XVI century) in the Centre of Europe, then in Rome, in the 17th century 18 gradually shifted to Paris. On the left bank of the Seine, in which the gathering of it's nose main Existentialism and his lover, Sartre, Beauvoir, they often in several Cafe and colleagues in the contend on. Unfortunately the Cafe hidden in a terraced house, I had a half-gods didn't find. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Today, Paris and Rome, in Cologne, Germany together are known as the largest cultural art. To understand its culture and art, will visit the three museums: the Louvre, Orsay Museum, Centre Pompidou, on behalf of the former, respectively, after three periods of artistic achievements. I'm three days respectively to the three places, so the feeling is different every day. &lt;/p&gt;&gt; &lt;p&gt; The Louvre is a treasure trove of art scale, one went in feed in the vast expanses of collection and disoriented. Of course the name of the tree shadow, the most famous or its town Palace Sambo: Brokeback------Venus, broken person-victory goddess, smiling people-Mona Lisa. Juxtaposition tours, finally found the Triple Gem. Surrounding teeming, praise is not absolute. In particular, marvel at the Michelangelo's statue-----Miro Venus, during the Millennium still texture and delicate, vivid. Mona Lisa's original smaller, due to the age old, somewhat fading, but mysterious smile remains unforgettable. I finally found a gap at the portrait of five seconds, then be turbulent flow of people packed a box with a portrait is not seen. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Orsay Museum was once a railway station, the second station later into a Museum, collection of 19th century to the early 20th century works, painting and sculpture to primary. The door, I'll go straight to the fifth floor and go for it's Impressionist and the base camp after Impressionism, collection of Cezanne, Van Gogh, Mona, and many other works of the Impressionist representative figures. As a painting of layman, I can only approximate guess is somewhere between realism and Impressionism abstract painting, still between has physical shape, just add the art of imagination and exaggeration. &lt;/p&gt; (Ladies painters such as springs have know, I am afraid I am ignorant.) &lt;p&gt;Pompidou Centre is a grotesque steel structure construction, external pipeline bare. I went to the National Art Museum, divided into two parts in the early and late stage, exhibition of the works of the twentieth century. Everywhere is a heap of scrap copper scraps, some rags, extremely distorted shape, not color blurred, not extreme. Besides introducing building showroom is able to read, the rest will be unreadable. Also, if I can see no, what the artist level? There is also a performance art, there is a strange body painting, next to the video projection is painting process. Volunteer body covered with paints, and then lay out on the canvas. Now this site chest and thigh paintings hung on the wall. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Paris is known as the capital of culture and art, because the city's streets are full of art. Potions are hawking painting, sculpture, crafts shops. In the Montmartre of a small hill, I find the artist village, a hundred square meters of open spaces, small bar, surrounded by dozens of artists or attract tourists sketches, or touting his paintings, drawings, oil paintings, watercolors, people, landscapes, buildings are being used, just carry a strong ' taste. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Writer in me more familiar with the Balzac and Hugo. The former is said to avoid debt and settled, and Victor Hugo's Tomb in the previously introduced by Pantheon, he lived at the corner of the floating, Plaza, has now become a museum that is open to visitors free of charge. Inside Hugo autograph letters, manuscripts, the Quill Pen writing, and he made paintings and hand-made furniture, is versatile. It was here, Hugo finished his immortal masterpieces "Notre Dame de Paris" and "Les Miserables", posted on staircase with huge posters of novels. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Another genius Leonardo da Vinci, visiting his home by accident. Because enrolment in tours, tours to visit the medieval castles. In a corner of the castle called Amboire, was a former residence of the Leonardo da Vinci. According to the record, when his Holiness the sixteenth century Flamenco Sova Italy, a visit to the Renaissance of prosperity deep envy, and invited the Leonardo da Vinci at fame spreads to settle in France. Warm hard but, Mr. big racks to Leonardo da Vinci. His Holiness, a quiet, room for living, Leonardo da Vinci in this live three years until his death. Always thought of Leonardo da Vinci is a painter, I didn't think he was a highly talented designers and artisans. In a booth, there are a lot of his hand-drawn design drawings and IBM company according to the drawings produced model, a glider, pontoon, tanks, submarines, prototype, realms. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Finally, in any event to tell France. Earlier said, in the heart of France who was complemented by a proud, romance and unyielding. Tourism in France, a French-style arrogant everywhere. Both Metro and bus station, or shopping malls, banks, extremely rare to English. The vast majority of France who do not speak English (I bet that most of France's never spoken second language). Regardless of who to ask, answer your flat is French. I had to repeatedly declared "Je ne parlie Francais". &lt;/p&gt; (I can't speak French). But because I'm French speaking, someone always stare at me, then shook his head saying "no Englise". (Do not speak English). &lt;p&gt;Eiffel Tower top viewing platform, a ropeway mouth, see flags of various countries and city name. Among them, China Beijing, Shanghai, Shenyang and Guangzhou, callout at the Eiffel Tower, the distance from the city, standing here, you seem to stand in the center of the world. &lt;/p&gt; (Of course, outstanding people, wuhua pride of France with sufficient reasons.) &lt;p&gt;France's men are gentle, polite, compared to the ladies take care of my deep feeling, in France is a woman is really good. As for why, although many women face her well, slim beauty, but most feel proud, and cigarette in hand. Comparison of passion is the old aunt, the aunt, both the tavern of the hotel, or to guard the doors of the Museum, are relatively warm. The old guard "hot Mai" Museum doors aunt eyes were Dim, but thought I was a student, mixed student tickets. &lt;/p&gt; (Usually the adult's 1967 fold). &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;Just a few days yet, it is not possible in all of France.

General of China town is in the Shui Kiu, but we're going to another place, there are a lot of Chinese shops, visible in Paris are more and more Chinese people. To China town and really will let you have the wrong impression, because into the shop, supermarket can speak Chinese, they are too lazy and you speak French. But things are almost everything, more than Lille. Even saw the dough, and tofu. Back to know that they actually carry out rice in a box of instant noodles come back. Buy a phone card, we are going to the Luxembourg Gardens. See on the subway has a station is Pompidou, I'd love to see, so first a car. Pompidou indeed has a lot of character, the square stands the three big exhaust pipe, the other side outside with one iron pipes, also painted yellow, blue, white, very special, this is the so-called modern and avant-garde. Into the Hall looked, there were significantly linked to the black ball, also look to buy souvenirs. Those who'd like a souvenir, the design is very strange, very distinctive. Once more with feeling Paris really is a paradise for artists. &lt;p&gt;Leave the Pompidou, directly to the Luxembourg Gardens, the Park is very big, but because it is winter, also had fallen, and now began the rain, so people are not seldom, seem a bit out of it. &lt;/p&gt; The fountain is a thick layer of ice, pigeons and ducks on the ice. Unfortunately, because in French culture, the Park is a Chinese photography exhibition, exhibition of a photographer in China beat France's 108 photos, some of the photos is ten years ago, we seem very remote, very backward, but the photographer seems like the terraces of Yuanyang, Yunnan province, as well as minority, only a few photos of Shanghai, revealing little modern atmosphere, and next to the contrast, contrast seems too big point, intermediate missing transition. &lt;p&gt;Through exhibitions, go back along the road, passing through a number of buildings, Paris building is too much, each with allusions are history, but for me it's just too hard to go one by one, to distinguish memory. &lt;/p&gt; Walk the Saint Germain Boulevard Saint Michel, came to the square, that is the square, there is a sculpture, a fountain. Celine says many appointments are all about in this square. As said in Nanjing xinjiekou of McDonald 's, Hunan road, Lion Bridge. Has reached the edge of the Seine, across the bridge, then turn to Cite Island, passing through the Notre-Dame, a bridge, then back to the right bank. She showed me a bridge in the distance, called the new bridge that is a movie about it, similar to the veranda yimeng, very romantic, so she saw this bridge is a feeling, but I have not read. &lt;p&gt;The larger the rain, the next time it is getting late, so we find the subway station, drill inside, and say goodbye to her, go straight to the railway station. &lt;/p&gt; Three day rush trip is over, very compact, very tired, but happy, very full. See Paris dawn, enjoy Paris evening also got a glimpse of bustling Paris night. Just three days, Paris also give me to show her and ever-changing, from the skies, snow falling, then to the patter of rain, all weather I appreciate, not lucky. And once from online to see Paris Paris, said a mess, a friend told me to go to Paris has also repeatedly reminded to pay attention to safety, in particular the subway thief, also cite one example, so I'm afraid, but this three days to come, I don't have the experience, everything is all right. The package I was back in later. Met many nice, although it is a person, but looking for someone to take pictures or anything, I feel we are very enthusiastic. Should not feel anything. Later, a friend of mine and I say you're not afraid of someone took your camera ran? hehe, I really ever. Of course this also and you find someone to take pictures on the right, for example, you are looking for those out of the tour, that generally there is no problem, or to find a family. So I see Paris or quite meet ever dream of. Romantic, friendly, generous, inclusive, prosperous ^ _ ^ &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-6927947744114960320?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/6927947744114960320/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/experience-paris-9-last-half-day.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/6927947744114960320'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/6927947744114960320'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/experience-paris-9-last-half-day.html' title='Experience Paris (9)-the last half a day'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-7128248436935311389</id><published>2011-03-27T03:10:00.007-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-27T03:10:24.782-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>Look at the map to play Paris — August 27, 2008 (top)</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Work for three days, exhausted the fatigues, or taking the team around. &lt;/p&gt; 25 April evening night stroll around the Champs Elysees and Arc de Triomphe, one of the most famous street like Beijing so brilliant, so I didn't take a picture as it is over. 26 October followed by everyone with Ms. Z "Galeries Lafayette" (Lafayette) and Lafayette in the back of a family man's duty free shop, the first taste of the Paris Metro, the Sèvres Lecourbe station M6 → La Picquet Grenelle swap Mottte M8 → d ' Chaussée La Fayette Antin to Lafayette, and then walk to only one station to open outside of Paris Opera, it's that is a good time to take pictures of, and is just a taste of Paris, the street into the mirror. Because Z is close at hand, home, do not send us back, a group of people was taken by Opéra station automatically asked to teach how to transfer station system, see the subway map is fully sufficient to take the M8 → La Picquet Grenelle swap Mottte M6 → Sèvres Lecourbe back to the hotel. &lt;p&gt;27 August finally is Saturday. &lt;/p&gt; The original plan was late coming to Paris for two days, Saturday and Sunday are just won't work, but with our exhibition in France people definitely need to rest, to play for a time. Today go? because not alone out natural to consider others, besides the line Paris I did not develop their own plans, but also not very good. Several reasons led me to relax the mind, not to their pressure. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Saturday morning has nine streets still quiet, even in the morning watching the MTR stations are few pedestrians. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Eat breakfast stroll to bi UNESCO's direction, yesterday there was erected some iron rods, to people in the free market is ready for the weekend. Two Avenue with a spacious lawn, lawn's end is a big character statue, who don't know, then it is a big lawn, then to the end is the dome of the Invalides glittering. Morning market in China is a hive of activity, but here although stalls crowded, goods, fresh and cooked food is fresh, and placed neatly, attractive, but buyers were negligible, but many are elderly, don't know what to do in this business. Something good, as long as price multiplied by ten, which one can buy. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Free market edge to see a hotel named Nicolas (how do you like the Russians, French name not down), it is a well-known chain stores in Paris, go in to take a look at the various wine really available to describe the "range", the door several grass basket just posted a simple label's new wine list, I immediately decided to visit Paris else to buy, buy a few bottles of wine to give it, I can do without wine tasting, but it is said that the new wine tastes the most simple and easy, so I selected the individual basket with a bottle from the full frame of wine in false low and year long two bottles. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Went home, thanks to the hotel is not far away from the hotel. I didn't expect to bring gifts to this important event, a morning easily accomplished, and then start the real run today. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Today's trip: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;① the Sèvres Lecourbe M 6 station → Pasteur for M12 → Abbesses station, arrived in Montmartre. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;② from sacred heart Cathedral recent M2 of Anvers station → Charles de Gaulle É t o l l e for Louvre Rivoli M1 → station to the Louvre Museum (Musée du Louvre). &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;③ the M4 from Seine side Montparnasse Bienvenüe Châtelet → → Sèvres Lecourbe M6 transfer back to the hotel. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(The Opera side of street) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Seafood stalls) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Vegetable stall) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-7128248436935311389?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/7128248436935311389/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/look-at-map-to-play-paris-august-27.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/7128248436935311389'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/7128248436935311389'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/look-at-map-to-play-paris-august-27.html' title='Look at the map to play Paris — August 27, 2008 (top)'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-330937591438508692</id><published>2011-03-27T03:10:00.005-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-27T03:10:16.501-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>Lone France-(3) Paris impression</title><content type='html'>Lone France 3 Paris impression &lt;p&gt;October in Paris should be considered in the winter, I don't really know, but the weather was cold, only 5-6 degrees Celsius, October 2, that Paris is a cloud over, day grey, not like Shanghai even winter can also see the brilliant Sun. &lt;/p&gt; Cold weather has not affected my mood, I started walking in Paris. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(2006, October 2, Paris) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The first station to the Arc de Triomphe, because I studied the maps found along from the Arc de Triomphe Champs go all the way to the East after the Louvre, Notre Dame last until I take the TGV Lyon train station, so I took the subway directly to Arc de Triomphe. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Drill out the ground for a moment, I saw the Arc de Triomphe stands at one end of the street. To the Arc de Triomphe, a few roads have radial spread, Champs is just to the East of a straight Street. The road is very broad, vehicles to Arc de Triomphe is a turntable, must pass the road to get to the Centre, there are signs (remember not to cross the road, no crosswalks very dangerous). To the Arc de Triomphe, stone-carved on the pattern as well as various characters like, the Center also has a memory of long-Ming torch. I have carefully review each historical description, Arc de Triomphe walk around in a circle, came across a couple of Beijing also with their son to Paris, they gave me a shadow. Arc de Triomphe can go up, take a few euros. Seen from a distance through the arc of the clouds in the sky, and Champs Elysees straight streets, there is so little time. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(At the beginning of the Arc de Triomphe) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Champs of pavement is not too good, sidewalks on both sides is very clean. &lt;/p&gt; I stroll slowly along the street, just in case of last weekend, basically big stores do not open the door (it is strange that the weekend is the time of sale, they do not open the door, people might focus on personal France rest), I can only see those closet of the model, up to a closer look at the poster, the price is not cheap! along the way, boss, benz, and other international top brand, it is no wonder that rich people are coming to Paris shopping. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Champs) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Through these stores, Champs into a gravel road, the road is not very good, might only have rained last night, some water, but better not mud. &lt;/p&gt; A full on both sides of the road, since it is winter, so the leaves turned yellow, ground also fall down many fruits. I picked two outside a sting, there is the shell class, like chestnut, but overall than large chestnut. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Champs of gravel road) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Through the Park to the France Louvre Museum. &lt;/p&gt; The door that like the same attractions the pyramid is the entrance to the Louvre, the building I was in Shenzhen window of the world have seen its microfilm Edition. Louvre building is a landmark building in France, stone that stands above all kinds of character statue. The entrance poll out of nowhere, but compared to our Beijing Chairman Mao Memorial Hall, these are dishes. Fares and not expensive, it's rare enough to browse two days, I don't know art, but not so much time, so you can only go out, see if you can find the LU floats the Phantom of the Opera "Sufi · masuo live that big old house opposite the Louvre, I'm interested in all of the Louvre are from the film. On the art of interested friends have to go early, carefully review the time a little enough to choke a day. Go to the Louvre has 1 point at noon, so I think or back to the TGV station, the train must bear, feel free to address the problem of food and clothing. Through the Louvre is Zaina River on one side and the other side door out across the street to the Metro station. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(France Louvre Museum) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Back to the TGV station of Lyon, I already had, in the station's rumbling bought something to eat, and began to eat me to France's first meal, French-style bread (5 euros) + Coca Cola (2.5 euro), is too expensive! bread selling very well, white, with a little chocolate powder in a class of things, but first it almost took my teeth are knock off, France's bread to rock hard, can I buy expired bread? then know that France had enjoyed the stiff buckwheat bread, also heard that the harder the better. &lt;/p&gt; They are smaller jobs that broke out in hand pinch out pinch to eat (... ... ... ), Often used to brush the dish soup juice anything, France's thrifty enough. No way, money spent, and I'm a little bit of Coke's swallow this hard stone, over dinner with our soft bread.

Of course, well Paris's snobbish. She had her hair dyed blonde later think Paris people she "much nicer", huh, huh. Britta also photographed around Super laughed at me, she shook his head saying, "you and your camera asian people!" That made me with her particularly intense, almost can't take pictures so scorned ' cards wipe clean the two down cards went "of Japan (if you have studied Reflets, should M. Ikeda in botanical cool pictures of the scene impressed me:). Later, my camera was stolen, photos of Vienna – don't know that it is associated. This is way down the line. &lt;p&gt;Britta morning took me to the Jewish district with the gay district (near Pompidou), the results go too early, haven't seen anything. &lt;/p&gt; Britta told me her boyfriend is tall and skinny with a blonde curly hair, is gay favorite type, so long as there are men who stare at him, she would know that they are gay. Now her boyfriend is not here, not knowing she came here to do so, is it to see Jews?. Britta here deliberately went to the palais de (forgetting is not the name), said that people all over the world come to buy tea. I saw red yellow blue green inside decoration of special on my farmers taste and itch to take photographs, Britta reluctantly I asked two sales girls can, elegant black Lady elegant said non, desole. HA HA, in fact, I don't feel anything written provisions cannot take pictures, but they sure with Britta almost think this wipe wipe around the card of the person holding the card hates it. Britta bought a small pot of tea in India or Japan sent her bf, and then to buy Longjing (memory, like a small pot of dozens of Europe), I would say forget it you have to go to China was also what to buy in France (at that time she Longjing tea yeah tell me she prepares to visit China. Unfortunately the contact with Britta later package together was stolen, so no contact:) &lt;p&gt;In la village lived 3-night, is a mixed live, 4 room, beds. &lt;/p&gt; The first night because my plane in the morning, so since do clever to bed at 8 o'clock-jeg lag at night because that would attack, roommate of Canada girls come back to see this scenario, a bit shocked to say, ' oh, that's early! ' , And then went to the United States girl go from Moulin Rouge, could explain the jet lag with her, she must feel that Chinese farmers so Ah. However proved not jet lag each time, I am of the day until late sleeping, waking up early in the morning (-later no matter how tired during the day, I'll never sleep, I can't stand my biological clock, too much. ）。 Back to say that the United States girl, very sweet, a black like me, 1 m 7, a large Pack with her as long with two small package, the next day she got up early in the morning to go to Lyon, I see her so big bag (almost all my luggage 4 times more) also poor plug poor plug plug will not go the way it is not intellectually. Later that she spent in Africa for a month and then direct to Europe. (The third night she came back from Lyon and live in, so I also helped her poor as a package. Pat asked sentence) Britta do not know how United States girls wash her small argued, didn't know Britta from capitalist countries also share with me the farmers, she also curious so purposely asked the United States small argues that small argued daughter says that she has a week without washing his head! Britta finished after we've also had a look of scorn. &lt;p&gt;Then speak better than I do farmers to Britta. The second night of two girls, two boys. &lt;/p&gt; At midnight we are asleep, and then heard the door opened, and then a male voice saying, ' can I turn on the light ', is quite funny accent (Britta very unkind to allow him to repeat several times this sentence to understand), I direct you thought he was Chinese, was about to use Mandarin told him "you", Britta has already answered during the day to see him wearing pyjamas Japan Samurai-like to know is the plaster flag people. Small spread of Japan sleep Britta, Britta told me her basic is a sleepless night, worried about the spread of brothers to steal her grab her, like a while secretly got up the wallet on your pillow, and frost in mind down the sea if wallet stolen her bank card password like in travel books, but travel book where it etc etc. .. I heard her talk time desperately hold back smile, feel this capitalist countries to 25-year-old girl how as we village 52 aunt. My own brothers and door covered when I don't know, extremely wary of farmers Britta nature see, she said that this person is very strange, "all wrapped up, do not know the specific circumstances, the day we go out when he was still in bed, obviously still had his day clothes (may be the undressed a shoes only), only to see a bald, evening we came back this man has disappeared. &lt;p&gt;Sorry portrait more wordy:) but after all, the King is dead, the person is alive. &lt;/p&gt; In fact, one wheel in the end, he found that King are similar (last aesthetic fatigue led directly to the memory of fuzzy, plus photos of Vienna, basically physical buildings, gardens, something in his mind are blurred into a piece of vision), and truly make you memorable is the journey you encounter people and events. Book return--now back to write in Paris, the first day of the Champs Elysees is basically from the Arc de Triomphe, and then go to the Tuillerie SeiNe on bridge, walked a moment let me Paris beauty. Champs Elysees Avenue in front of a lot of comparison it!-shop but I even didn't LV's shop-simply because it came in at the other side of the street, even too lazy to cross the street (on Paris salesgirl feeling is particularly elegant, not always pretty, but it has the temperament, I feel also very kind of wrist, I fear – well, if I had the misfortune of being a man, his absolute being their applause. Khan, applause between no wrongly?), located close to the Louvre, it is exactly the way I imagine, straight wide sidewalk a row of deciduous trees (Platanus? commonly known as the Chinar?), a row of Evergreen, golden leaves in sidewalk spread thick layer, stepped on feet do Hey I rap, someone sitting at the side of the couch and read books, brilliant sunshine through the leaves desultory-this is my childhood dreams, or even the entire Paris Champs Elysees. -The girls have to sit here leave a shadow on the Chair, than it is in what has broken stone front camera. By the way, to see so many people in the Sun I really shocked to read a handful (Seine on the jam-packed bridge there is a lot of people sitting and lying in a book), I think the book How to look into it, so much distraction in your surroundings, and the Sun book eyes don't go bad? Or is this a scheme to get dates?? I direct you to conclude that the guys are cool (with certain kids non-credited to Jimmy and willing to do the same job in mind inside me incredible). Later with Britta discusses Sun book unwanted eyes, farmers had actually think I incredible Britta, say you Chinese eyes problems!, humming you foreigners boneheaded. By the way, tips on the Champs Elysees Avenue, close to the one: the Louvre, the public free of charge in the road: D What's interesting is the toilet in French and English are written directly to the "free", the Chinese "for free" (the people of Hong Kong or Taiwan people translated?), give me the music out, quickly took out the camera a bit, the results of two waiting at the door to the toilet guy saw I laughed, and probably think I'm low tastes.

Food on the plane, you can see my pictures. This is my take on the worst aircraft. Previously also old complaining about China Eastern Airlines, China Eastern Airlines now look much better than they. There is a stewardess, do not know how these people as hostess. In one word: rotten! &lt;p&gt;Back to original aircraft is local time, 3 pm, and then said to be delayed until 50 minutes to let us go up, the results of a wait is 5 hours until 8 p.m. before take-off, the reason is a mechanical problem, let us down the plane, security, and even the belt is off, and you say this rotten company. &lt;/p&gt; Our compensation is only 5 minutes from the Amsterdam free international long distance, plus 10 euro service charge for tour group leader, the other is the next time you buy a ticket to cheap 50 ohm, I forget it, the folded into RMB 700, so we will never complain about domestic airlines late 1, 2 hours, abroad is the same. And aviation lady doesn't find sorry everyone that attitude is not friendly. In particular, the Chinese air hostesses are nausea Jiashi, Savoie. &lt;p&gt;I ring the Bell to water, she actually said let me go down, crazy Halo. &lt;/p&gt; In short if you have a choice, do not do his aircraft. Later and European colleagues say the things that people say the airline is rotten, as was the case, and the complaint is of no use, or else they've just changed, because the person you want to complain too much, huh, huh. &lt;p&gt;Insurance: peace, 12 days, 186, 60 years old, $ 366. &lt;/p&gt; In fact, if you go to a few days, you do not need a few days, I started in the hope that the Consulate can smoothly, but in fact no need. &lt;p&gt;Visa: Germany visa RMB 670 yuan/person. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Accommodation: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hint: the European hotel has hot water, cold water can be drunk directly, all hotels, 5 star hotels are not supply toothbrush toothpaste, slippers. &lt;/p&gt; Generally have bath, shampoo. Local daylight saving time and Shanghai difference of 6 hours, Europe generally dark very late, in the Netherlands, Germany, after nearly 22: 30, so local genius black bar industry is well-developed, the nightlife is also very rich, daytime activities are started only after the 10 points. &lt;p&gt;Amsterdam: 5/24/08, one night, hotel.restaurant, De Stern, m.y.hussein. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Address: utrechtsestraat 18, 1017, V.N.Amsterdam &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Tel: 0204208831 &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Mail: hoteldestam@hotmail.com &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;3 rooms, 135 euro, breakfast, 5 Euro/person. &lt;/p&gt; With independent bathroom, hot water. &lt;p&gt;Access: located in the Center, Amsterdam Central station take tram number 4, get off at the rembrandtplein, on the right hand side, this place off the red light district, the town centre are only 15-20 minute walk to amsterdam central station is only 30 minutes. &lt;/p&gt; Downstairs there is a lot of bars in the vicinity there are also many small hotel to choose. &lt;p&gt;Because we live in a room along the road, Super noisy, locals night 3 point began to sleep, but the day is 10 points on the road before they are after. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Hamburg: 5/25/08, 2 nights, innercity, seems to be that way. &lt;/p&gt; Companies pay the Bill, so the price is unknown. &lt;p&gt;Access: located in the Center, Hamburg central station, the opposite is. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Reuven: May 27, 2 nights, city flats &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Address: dekens straat &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Traffic: very inconvenient, a bit like a family hotel, you can cook it, price is 79 Euro/person. &lt;/p&gt; But because Reuven is a small town, so it can take a walk, walk to the Centre in about 20-30 minutes. &lt;p&gt;Paris: 5/29/08, 2 nights, hotel de la terrasse. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Address : 67 rue letort, paris. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Tel : +33146064501 &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Mail : e.hotelterrasse@wanadoo.fr &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Double room, 55 Euro/night, with independent bathroom, hot water, 5 Euro/person for breakfast. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Traffic: more remote area of blacks clustered, but the subway is also very convenient, if in Paris nord est train station to get off, or you can take metro line 4, direction towards port de clignancourt, get off at the Terminal, the port de clignancourt and get off, and then go sortie-rueletort exports. &lt;/p&gt; I looked, in fact, each exit is very close from the hotel. Downstairs many bars, a supermarket, but the supermarket is closed very early. &lt;p&gt;Vienna: 5/31/08, 3 nights, the hilton Vienna &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Address: Am stadtpark, 1030 &lt;/p&gt;wien, osterreich. &lt;p&gt;Tel: +43-1717000 &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Double room, the company pays, so price unknown &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Traffic: If you take the train to westoahnhof, sat U3 direction simmering, to wien mitte, to get out. &lt;/p&gt; Wien mitte is the plane down to take the train to the station, also called landstrasse. &lt;p&gt;Traffic: &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Amsterdam: the city is very small, so you can walk, if a question of time, you can rent a bicycle. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Hamburg: because the whole process is accompanied by colleagues, companies pay the Bill, it is not clear enough, but it should be said that you can take the subway and buses. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Reuven: very small cities to the most famous, Reuven University can walk. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Brussels: because I only have 1 day, therefore always walk, if you think too hard, you can see outside the station, very convenient for sightseeing bus, Hamburg also has a tour bus and boat. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Paris: Paris I selected the Metro, Paris one-way Metro is 1.5 Europe, regardless of where in the past, Versailles need to buy tickets, 2.8 Europe because I spent 2 days in Paris, so I took the 2-day pass, you can open the subway, bus, 14 ', not including Versailles. &lt;/p&gt; Sightseeing bus, you can free up and down, 2 days, 24 Europe, cruise, not from top to bottom, in the Notre Dame bridge can buy, 11 euro, around a circle. &lt;p&gt;Vienna: I also select a Metro, one-way Metro is 1.7 Europe, I bought a 24-hour ticket, 5.7 Europe, you can sit within 1 day. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Other detailed tourist routes, will slowly to Syria. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Food: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;11 days in Europe, we eat about most is bread with lettuce and meat, it is really expensive, don't know who said that, said China Maidanglaokendeji than expensive abroad was crap, in Europe, not a hamburger is 4, 5 euro. &lt;/p&gt; But here's cheese, butter, meat, should be better than China cheap, even if it is folded into RMB, because domestic supermarkets 6 slices of beef, bread, all 10 bucks, but more than ten piece of meat in Europe, approximately 20 RMB, but taste and completely different. Milk here almost like China, I think there is no cheap, but is not expensive. 1 liters of milk, about 1 euro cent. Big sausage, here are 3 euro/root, and our national roadside Grill sausage-like mode, but the size and taste different, HA HA. Here the fruit more expensive, we bought tomato, cucumber, fold down to 20-30 a, evil is expensive. Here's an egg of about 2 Yuan a, so I feel really good, bread or anything, all in 1-3, supermarket between Europe and the slices or if large bread, bakery bread, suit, usually 2-5-a, so I think it's not cheap. At the beginning of what we eat are distressed, over time, not to convert renminbi, ate also ate. &lt;p&gt;To be honest, I feel that the European people's consumption level should not high, it is no wonder that big brands are starting to hit China market, I believe that the Chinese people to spend money for sure willing than they. &lt;/p&gt; I see dozens of euros in Europe, are regarded as expensive, if we put aside the exchange rate of 1 euro = 1 element, you want to block Chinese dozens of things, it's not just buy it, but it seems the European no, 20, 30 block everything is expensive, so I'm surprised that everybody wants to marry a foreigner, not just figure they money? at least I think so, but I think in most European foreigners are not rich, huh, huh. Of course, if you put their money into RMB, it must have been rich. &lt;p&gt;Travel log: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;About European ticket: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In Shanghai, do some homework, so learn to European free line, you can use the eurail pass, on its official website found a Chinese agent phone (+ 86-21-62259633, KEVIN), then bought 4 countries 5 day tickets, because the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg is a State, haha! fares 305 euros/person, because I bought the 2 votes, so slightly cheaper, agents charge a handling fee of 2 euro/piece, I think it's very cheap. &lt;/p&gt; But if your time sufficient, you can consider the online purchase, because the online purchase is express sending you, take 5 business days, but because the Internet is us $ settlement, and kevin can only accept euro or USD, so counting down than dollars go several hundred RMB to expensive. However it is more comfortable, you can go to his Office, he also will give you some suggestions on this trip, I would like to thank him. He also provides booking, because although bought pass, but the international trains, booking, this is true, you can select a local target, because the truth, their train was empty, as long as not in high season, you can at any time by booking, I think. But if you go out for the first time, the first booking. I'm sitting IC train positioning is not required, but I sit international trains, CNL did they want you to show the location of the ticket, and positioning is not cheap. A tag is to position. &lt;p&gt;In addition if it is a night train, also offers a delicious breakfast. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Localization costs list: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hamburg HBF-Bruxelles Midi, CNL263, room 1class, 2persons sleep, 48 euro/person &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Brusssel Midi – Paris Nord, TGH 9342, 2class, seats, 13 Euro/person &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Paris Est-Strasbourg, 1class, seats, 3 Euro/person &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Strasbou &lt;/p&gt;Rg-Wien west, room sleep 2class, 6persons, 36.9 Euro/person &lt;p&gt;However it should be said that European ticket than buy cheap train tickets, in general because it is said that from Paris to Vienna, my this is more than 250 single tickets, so be it, should be the cheaper, HA HA. &lt;/p&gt; You can see a picture of my ticket. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;First stop: Netherlands/Amsterdam/famous East-windmills (windmill), cheese (cheese), clogs (wooden shoes) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;24 May: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Amsterdam, 15: 30 local time, after the arrival airport, then we take the train from the airport to Amsterdam Central station, the train ticket is 3.8 Euro/person. &lt;/p&gt; To the central station, we chose the tram, 4 car directly to the hotel, please see the lodging section. It is worth to note that Amsterdam locals rarely can speak English, the platform is Dutch, so please be sure to read more ask us to find the direction the tram, spent a lot of time. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Because the hotel is somewhat similar to a family hotel, the boss was very cordial and hospitable. &lt;/p&gt; In the hotel took a map, just wash it, began to go out shopping. Comparison of Amsterdam is famous for its red-light district, the town centre, there is the central train station, while the suburbs in some places, such as the Windmill Village, and so on, because I only have 1 half days, so we select only a stroll in the city centre. &lt;p&gt;From the hotel to the city centre are not far away, walk, first went to the sex museum, 3 Euro/person, very funny, but also General, ordinary sex. &lt;/p&gt; Red-light district in the square behind the shop window woman wearing a 3 point, actually not nude, this point is I'm surprised to see that before the Internet is full of naked, some women are very old, some women, fat I collapsed a few individuals, but still very eye-opening, estimated this flesh, if so, it is estimated that China had to tread on a rotten threshold, huh, huh. Most let us surprise is that pimping actually Chinese told us that there is an invoice, invoice. It seems that public spending is no longer a minority, previously heard people say this, I thought people kidding, it is heard, that really is a shame. &lt;p&gt;Because the red light district is in the city centre, so feel free to go shopping, go back. &lt;/p&gt; Netherlands dark very late, it is estimated that the whole of Europe, 22: 30, genius began black, because we lived very centric, so very noisy at night, to 3 a.m., four points, began slowly to keep quiet. Open the door to do business in Europe are very late, including comparative bigger supermarkets, approximately in 10 o'clock. Here, I found that supermarkets are not large, it is estimated that the big supermarkets or in the United States and China. General roadside supermarkets are and our Rosen, almost nothing, and again is that the locals feel great, and the Watson's almost great, because I haven't seen such a Carrefour supermarket, so I do not know whether such at the local supermarket and as large as ours. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5/25/ &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Morning found me in Europe there is almost no difference in the need to swap, HA HA. &lt;/p&gt; Downstairs to eat breakfast, boss, butter, coffee, jam, since there are 2 more bread, a fried egg, in Europe had to know things are delicious, color, taste good, I look at the foreigner eat eat to figure on this point. &lt;p&gt;Because contact with friends, so 10 point he took us to the Windmill Village windmill, the road is still very far away. &lt;/p&gt; Although some inconvenient, but the scenery you can see the cheese manufacturing process, or you can see the Windmill operating principle. Don't trip. &lt;p&gt;At the central station, central city tram 20 road, is a good way of sightseeing. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Amsterdam centraal &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Building in 3 artificial islands, total 8687 pillars support, is the architect Pei terus. kubor design, this building built by red brick, a large building from Foundation to the completion of the spent eight years, 1889, 15 October, the official opening of the new Gothic architectural style. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Royal Palace Koninklijk paleis &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This Palace is located at the dam of classicism, the 17th-century building in the history of a miracle, 13568 tree stump, these ground piles are 1648 to 1655 years into the underground of foresight, the architectural history of the great wonders of 8. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The Palace originally the Town Hall and the courts, it was the city's political and economic centre, with its dam and Plaza is also an important tourist attractions. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dam square, Dam square &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Center gather &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Oudezijds achterburgwal road red light district &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Shopping: because the city is very small, so feel free to walk, is the central shopping area, the Internet say broken (rokin), Carl Fortin (kalverstraat) I own is hit, it did not think the street name. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Back when friends took us in the city around it, and then took us to taste some of the small foods: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Haring（ &lt;/p&gt;fish） &lt;p&gt;French fries &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sausage from the hema &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Friends also recommended a number of other things, but I didn't try to: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Coffee shop ( it is not only for coffee, but also for smoking, special smoking) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;China town &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Febo croquet with mosterd=febo sroket met mosterd &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bread rolls with tuna or salmon salad=broodje tonijn of zalm salade &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Custard cake from the hema – tom poes &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dutch shrimp salad=hollandse garnalen cocktail &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Caramel waffles=stroop wafels &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Custard=vla &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dutch apple pie=appeltaart &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3 pm or so taken international train travel to Hamburg, but go a lot of cars, there is no need for positioning. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The direct use of pass is OK. &lt;/p&gt; Local buy leaflets, ticket 80.4 2 in Europe. &lt;p&gt;Detailed train schedules can refer to: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Second stop: Germany/Hamburg/famous dongdong: niweiya (Nivea), sailing in a bottle (buddelschhiff), MONTBLANC (Mont Blanc). &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;May 26 &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Because in Hamburg, the whole process is accompanied by head office colleagues, so here's the price situation is not very clear. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The morning sitting with my colleagues in the tour bus. &lt;/p&gt; Then go to Terminal sat sightseeing boat. &lt;p&gt;Tour bus like 19 Europe, cruise vessels like 8 euro. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5-27 &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Morning colleagues to accompany me to the Alster Lake, around the Great Lakes, and then go to the town centre (cityhall), a stroll around the nearby shopping. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Attractions: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The central railway station hauptbahnhof &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Municipal Centre cityhall &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Municipal Centre started from 1886, time-consuming for 11 years, is the new Baroque building, the whole building with sandstone blocks for the copper green roof. &lt;/p&gt; Municipal building of the central tower of 112 meters high, was installed on the Tower of gold Empire Eagle, the Town Hall has a total of 4 levels, 647 rooms.

Take a boat tour, you can see many boats, rowing boats, many people in the park for a walk around the Lake, the scenery is static and Joseph. Central also has water, very special. In the Lake can see Hamburg five of the Tower, the name to remember, just remember that Michel Church, the Town Hall, there are still a few forgotten. &lt;p&gt;Michel Cathedral michaeliskirche &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is the oldest church in the maintenance, the landmark is a large bird, haha! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Built in the 17th century, 132 m high, the entire clock Tash copper green, is Germany's most important northern Baroque church, its top is a sign of the city of Hamburg. &lt;/p&gt; During World War II, the Church to Germany from Allied bombing provides refuge.

Because pass, if the car is a 19 point later on, you can write the next day the date of arrival, so that, as far as I'm concerned, it is very useful, because I'm 27, when boarding the date is 28, 28, to Brussels change trains in time or you can use this very day, saves, Oh. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Reuven is very small, mainly went about Reuven University Plaza, you can see some photos. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Also Reuven Town Hall. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5/29/ &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;By Reuven travelled to Brussels, but because parking in midi, so the interchange to centre, the central railway station, began to go ask people how to get to tourist attractions. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Attractions: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Saint Michel and Saint-ancient music Cathedral cathedrale st michel et gudule &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is the best I've ever been to, I think the other local churches are not his good, maybe relatively new? don't quite understand. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The Church was built in 1047 years, 1226, massive expansion that has continued for over two centuries, the Minister, within 110 m high &lt;/p&gt;26 m, width 50 m of the center post 12 disciples on Jesus statue. Favorite inside the glass, full of colourful Bible story. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Large square, grand place &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hugo said: here is the world's most beautiful square. &lt;/p&gt; Square, rectangular, length 110 m, width 68 m, the ground all Granite paving. Large square's most striking architectural history of Brussels Town Hall, which is Belgium's most typical Gothic buildings, Town Hall, opposite the Palace of Louis XIV of France, is one of the National Museum. King building where also maisondu roi. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Less than even the statue of manneken pis pee &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This little guy is really difficult to find, to many people know. &lt;/p&gt; Because most people are a visitor to ask to ask to have said in the vicinity of the square, but come looking for it, it is not easy. I like not wearing clothes of the child, not the last time he had put on clothes, it is said that he has more than 700 costumes. &lt;p&gt;Sculpture bronze, height 60 cm, built in 1619, rude l etuve and ruede chene's corner. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This statue of legend has many versions, the most well known is that in order to commemorate the one called Julien's boys, he acted out to detonate the bomb across the Town Hall. &lt;/p&gt; Another legend is Ku Reid III, Duke of avatar, 1142, he still a few months-old baby, was taken to the LAN Spek battlefield, cradle hung from the tree, to motivate his father's death and the frustration of the army, the army will retreat, small Duke suddenly stood up from the cradle, and later, the statue of posture, and this pose inspired at that time, the soldiers ' morale, turn defeat into victory. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the vicinity of the square there is a shopping street, there are Chinese restaurants, the shopping street, I don't remember where, but very famous. &lt;/p&gt; You can see my photos, many famous brands are concentrated here, although the buy, but appreciate the window is a kind of enjoyment. Belgium chocolate is famous, I see a lot of brands are very famous, price of 20, 30 RMB, handmade chocolates, the price is 150 Yuan. &lt;p&gt;Neuhaus is the husband sent me a cable brands, prices are more expensive. &lt;/p&gt; Almost 27 euros a cartridge. &lt;p&gt;Their packaging are very delicate. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hurried after a swim, take a train to Paris. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here also to mention that I pass out from Reuven to Paris by train, are all in a day, so whatever train is only count one day. &lt;/p&gt; Although Brussels to Paris to locate, but overall, the still very effective. As if listening to buy tickets is 60 euros. I know it paid the localization costs. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5 p.m. or so to Paris, just go straight to the hotel, because my place rather, feel, and nearby are black, scary, huh, huh! don't even know they are doing, always gathered in the subway, Metro from us when they where, until we go to bed, they also where, oddly enough they don't have to go to work? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Because I live in the hotel are backpackers, room is very small, out of all the keys back to the foreground, but the front desk was very eager to answer my question, but it is important to note that Paris can speak English, not many people really, I always asked these days, asked dongwenxi no less than 10 individuals, as if no one speak English, so are they jumped, but fortunately I go out when the attractions of the French are written down, plus pictures, others can read it, otherwise, huh, huh, but also to ask for directions. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fourth station: France/Paris/famous dongdong: luxury, cosmetic, perfume &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;30 may &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Woke up, rushing in to wash up, took some breakfast, set off. &lt;/p&gt; To do some homework before, but do not enough, so a point just wasting money. &lt;p&gt;Because I stayed 2 days in Paris, so I have long wanted to buy a Metro ticket, but I'm thinking, if I only go to the first day, then I Versailles palace does not need to buy a 2 day pass, I can buy 1-day, morning, my plan is to go to Notre Dame, and then went to Versailles, but if so, I took more because out Europe 1.5 one-way 1.5 Europe, Versailles is 2.8 Europe, Versailles to the city centre, is also, but if Europe 2.8 directly to Versailles is 2.8 Europe, back or to Notre Dame. &lt;/p&gt; So I want to remind everyone that if you choose to go to Versailles, morning morning directly in the past, the more cost-effective. In addition, if you force the foot enough, in fact, many places do not need to take the subway, you can walk, so you do not buy a ticket, the ticket 2 days is 14 ', if you buy a one-way ticket, 10 in Europe by 1.1, is 11 euro in fact enough to spend 2-3 days. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I think the most useful line as follows, that is what I go through this experience summed up, because I was yet, so maybe unreasonable, let it be a reference. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;First talk about the tour bus and sightseeing boat, &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bus 24 Euro/person, tour Eiffel, passing through: the champ de mars, muse du louvre, notre dame, muse d orsay, opera, champs elysees, the trocadero frand palais,-a day are available, but you can get on and off. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The boat is 11 euro, attractions not remember, but not in boarding, in Notre Dame can sit. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Route: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you have enough time, it is recommended that you can in the question of Versailles and the Louvre, Versailles door day &lt;/p&gt;Tickets Tickets for Europe, the Louvre 7.5 8 euro. &lt;p&gt;The first day &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The morning went to Versailles versailles, Metro C line, get off at versailles rive gauche &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And then walk 10 minutes, you will be able to. &lt;/p&gt; Now being renovated, mess, I didn't go in, so do not know, but I heard that the garden is free, but I have not found the garden. &lt;p&gt;10 point into, to 2 o'clock in the afternoon, then stroll around, I still don't know my picture in the Dome Housing and that what is in the Red House. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can sit out next to the invalides C line, change to Metro line 8 of the Paris Opera House opera. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The second day &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Take the subway line C to the champ de mars, the Eiffel tour visiting the Eiffel Tower. &lt;/p&gt; Really strong light, but lined up to buy tickets in person many, estimated to be over a period of time. And the Eiffel Tower in a straight line, should have 2 spots, but I have to go, one called the trocadero, the other seems to be government bodies, opposite the peace poles, towers are among them, so you to the Eiffel Tower, you can see the trocadero, then down the road at the other end, see peace pillar, the opposite is to say the Government authorities. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Then you can sit C line to st michel notre dame Paris Notre Dame &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Notre Dame de Paris and Michel Cathedral is in a region, walk about 5-10 minutes. &lt;/p&gt; Here you can see the beauty of the Seine, bridge can take a boat tour to Paris. &lt;p&gt;Although Notre Dame is because Hugo's novel is famous, but it was dark, and feel so old that it deems as Brussels Cathedral. &lt;/p&gt; You can log Tower, but also money, 5.5 Europe. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In fact, the Arc de Triomphe etoile arc de triomphe in Paris Notre Dame, intermediate loops at both ends is Louvre musee du louvre, place de la Concorde, there is also a big concore Park, next to the Concorde, the road is the Champs elysees avenue des champs. &lt;/p&gt; So if this ends as a starting point, and it is nice to walk all the way, all can see. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The third day &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can go in the morning, visit the Louvre to 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and then you can follow the road along the West, through Concord, to the end of the Arc de Triomphe. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Worth noting that online also referred to the Grand Palace small Palace, and the Alexander III bridge, I have not noticed, do not know whether it is missing or was not found. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In addition if you on each of the Museum are interested, you can buy a ticket, 2 days, 4 days 30 ' 45 euro, 60 Euro 6 days. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Shopping tips: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Paris is a desirable cities, but many friends tell me, do not go to Paris to buy things, because it would cost more than other cities. &lt;/p&gt; Nevertheless, but Paris shopping recommender Miss smile and warm, so I always have to and they said no. Eventually not be able to resist their enthusiasm. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Paris to specific market duty free shop, if you purchase something, 175 Europe can enjoy 12% of the rebate, I too prices, and the airport duty free shop almost, but such as perfume, airport are 50ml, even more often than not, only buy 70ml, 100ml, so if you do not want to buy a large bottle, or you can buy in the city. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In addition, like micro-General cosmetics shop is not bought, or to the drugstore to buy, I think the price of domestic, almost as if nothing cheaper. &lt;/p&gt; There is also the body shop, like it is not cheap. I ve been in Hong Kong to buy eye cream, like that of the 120-block, but in Paris, almost 13 euro, therefore does not seem to be so cheap people say, a lot of online information that duty-free shops can be cheap, 1/2, I do not think. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Say a few things that I buy, everyone can refer to &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Clinique 3 bottles, 50ml cleanser, 100ml 30ml emulsion, water, model No. 3, 28.4 Europe &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bristol Ouquan 3 bottles, 50ml cleanser, 125ml 50ml emulsion, water, green bottle, 43.3 Europe &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ya Shi Landai 3 bottles, 5ml eye cream, 15ml essence, 50ml emulsion, send Remover wipes, a cosmetic bag, &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;46.4 Europe &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Micro-attitude control oil day cream, is now placed on TV, domestic is 188, I buy is 17 European, so I think the price is really not much difference. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Over 175 Europe, 12% rebate. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;50ml diaozhen I series, the oldest of the taste, the heavier ones, 55 Europe, 30ml, 47.5 Europe, and the flavor, than 5ml General perfume to upscale much, don't remember the number 108 Europe still is, but certainly more than 100 euro. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In addition, I also see Montreal's Swarovski Crystal shop, the truth of things and internally almost, the variety seems to be more, however the price really I do not think that cheap, I think there's even more expensive than domestic, but because I went out and did not compare prices before, so remember specific what price. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The other is lip gloss, because not very much money, so remember, like Dior are around 100-150 RMB cheapest is, L'Oreal, memory. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;If you do not consider the brand, I feel H&amp;a &lt;/p&gt;Mp; M of it seems to be the cheapest, HA HA. I do not know the domestic price, because I like to stroll around the time did not find a cosmetic, but abroad as if her family have a lot of cosmetic products, lip gloss is a dozen renminbi and eye shadow or something, are super cheap, I see and a domestic Mentholatum. But because of too much, remember. If you want, you can learn more. &lt;p&gt;June 31, &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Last stop: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Austria/Vienna, famous dongdong: because it is music, in addition to the Golden Hall, Vienna Woods SISI Princess, I do not know what is famous for. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Night sat night train from Paris to Vienna, half-way round the train, the details of foreseeable traffic columns. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;1 morning only to Vienna, because I arrived on the station called westoahnhof, Hilton in mitte, so you will need to take the subway fare unified one-way 1.7 Europe. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In the west for U3 direction Simmering, to wien mitte, also called Landstrasse. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To the hotel, take a rest, and then began to make plans. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since a very early age crazy evening with Princess, is also known from the film, the addition of Vienna is Strauss waltzes, knew the Vienna forest, grown up, every year new year's concert is a must-see, Golden Hall is also one of the purposes of this trip. &lt;/p&gt; With this in mind, so I decided to buy more tickets ticket, the price is 22.5 Euro/person, so you can check out three areas: &lt;p&gt;The beauty of the palace 1.Tour spring Palace &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Grand Tour &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;U3 zieglergasse &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This place is sisi refuges, inside you can see what is the Palace of the arrangement, their comparison of surprise is the wall portraits of great art, confused is a sticker, or paintings, or what art is, in short here, because I was surprised too laments Palace beautiful sculpture and paintings, there are many fine exquisite decoration. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;2. the hofmobiliendepot furniture collection it is a small museum &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With the exhibition sisi in the movies-imperial furniture for the sets. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;U3 herrengasse &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This place is in fact just entered a bit disappointed, mainly showing a lot of movies, many many chairs, most impression like these. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;3. hofurg Hofburg Palace &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Imperial apartment &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sisi museum &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Silver collection &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;U4 schonbrunn &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here are many at the time the vessels, candlestick, room layout, but feel as beautiful Springs Palace. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tips: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1. a small museum is closed on Monday, so if you buy a ticket, make sure to see the date. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;2. go to a small museum, and then go to the Hofburg Imperial Palace, in the end I went to beautiful Springs Palace, such lines, like what is seen more and more refined, gives the shock is increasing. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Other attractions: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;St. Stephan Cathedral stephansdom &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Karls kirche, this I did not find a Chinese name, but the building very conspicuous, near the Hofburg, the eye can see, because he is the Blue Dome, similar to Islam, but I didn't get it. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Opera House oper &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Because I didn't go in, so it is not clear enough, just outside look, very near from the concert hall, walk 5 minutes is ok. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Musik verein &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is the legendary Golden Hall, Vienna Concert Hall. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;A lot of lines that can be oper and karlsplatz, can, 2 stop is interoperability. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Price is 5 Euro/person, visit 2 Hall, because only English and German explanation, so forget another Hall name, golden hall, we called the Golden Hall, Vienna, however many people do not know. &lt;/p&gt; But it explains, they are called, really strange. Maybe like Shanghai, many people do not know what is the Oriental Pearl Tower in English as well, haha. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Visit is time-limited, 13-point is in English, German, 13: 40, 30-40 minutes a day only 2 times, I do not know the weekend off. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;We are very skillful in local encountered people of Shanghai, he told me, or I'll bite. &lt;/p&gt; Because I look at the door, outside the performance been approached by night, he said that if I do not see performance, cannot be visited, but not actually, ticket office, you can visit. Just because both are German, seems to have no ticket office is English, a glass door, walk around, it certainly cannot be seen in the Empire State building, opposite the back door. Not that I don't know what the ticket office. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In future, really excited, but the Hall is also a piece of gold, and see on TV, but only one of almost makes me alarmed, Golden Hall so small, the Auditorium of the University than our stage is also small, but you see on TV, made me feel great, it is not surprising that the instructors also say, do and TV &lt;/p&gt;See bit, which I did not imagine. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Other also have and I can imagine how much worse. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tip &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hofburg Palace &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In fact, we can visit is the Palace of several houses, but it's a great site, so if you do not have the time to go in, stroll around the square, walk around is also very interesting to buy a ticket at the sisi museum, it is estimated that you want to take a good look at it, HA HA, I look for a long time to find. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Vienna Woods &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I imagine, or the scene in the movie, Strauss sat the cart, and then listen to trot and bird calls, but for all practical purposes it is not the forest area seems easy and progressive, we can enter a range of it seems to be, there is a castle, but because English is not good, so do not understand the full meaning, then should be taken into account, in the suburbs may time is not allowed, so there is no research. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;An der donau I danube &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Know the river or the River because Strauss, but also does not pass through the city, so there is no go. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Empire State building hotel imperial &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Because Hitler, just know this hotel, luxurious and very expensive, it is said that Hitler had once lived in the 4th floor, there is a lot of Heads of State at the hotel. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Price list can see my picture, huh, huh. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Shopping &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the Hofburg and the United States Stephen Palace, anywhere you can see the shadow of sisi, travel articles, range, so the selection range is large, but to be honest, a lot of porcelain, really very good. &lt;/p&gt; Just some more expensive. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;May drawback of specified, purchase 75 stores, you can get a tax rebate of 13%, this seems better than Paris offers a lot, but I don't have carefully studied, because things are similar. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Summary: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This trip, come to a conclusion, abroad or want to learn German, many people do not speak English, especially in France. &lt;/p&gt; There is a guide to English, English is not very good, or very general, I think it's important to compare with the mission, to effectively understand, but also very hard. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-359969376690732150?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/359969376690732150/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/free-line-lines-amsterdam-hamburg.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/359969376690732150'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/359969376690732150'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/free-line-lines-amsterdam-hamburg.html' title='Free line lines: Amsterdam-Hamburg-Reuven-Brussels-Paris-Vienna-Shanghai'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-7576168139372521154</id><published>2011-03-27T03:09:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-27T03:10:02.808-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>European travel notes 5-happy and regret</title><content type='html'>This time I go to the basic European tours in advance, according to me, there is no train set, nor did it like I see other people's travels, the hotel found no room or unauthorized change rooms, or rather smooth, making people very happy. But we found there a loss so completely prior arrangement good practice makes travel no room for flexibility, such as Baden Baden town, very fast, as that should stay an extra day for the best, now just left regrets. Tour of the weather is too great, no rain. But the European summer temperatures or than I expected, I was there when the maximum temperature is the highest time to 26 degrees, but most only 23-24 degrees, basic my emergency clothing is used in every day. I belong to compare the kind of rigor, the day the Sun came out feeling slightly warmer, the Sun didn't or cloudy, coat must be worn. So don't be afraid to go outside and play, backpack must be installed. About the car, I would like to say that if possible, or rent auto visor. Manual gear adaptation up is not easy, and roads are not familiar with, this way we had approximately 2000 km, LG has always been the status of the very nervous. This has also increased human fatigue, I think if automatic blocking, and many will be easy. When returning the car LG said, finally, and this poor car said goodbye, huh, huh, visible LG on this car had hated. Driving in Germany, I feel most in need of attention is the large turning and circle island. Germany's central island very many, many have no traffic lights at the crossroads, which is set to ring the island. Go around the island need to be parked in the central island observation, if the ring the island have a car, you will not be able to move around the island, but if you ring the island's car had already left, then you can enter the roundabout, follow this principle very orderly. The great turning, if there is a car on a direct track, the need for direct line first, then you can turn. If the straight road child more, then you can take before and after the straight distance between vehicle distance when free big turn. Rules although understand, but to really open up sometimes panic, this time you will encounter each other drivers of the "Watch" is puzzled look to you, read also edge head, LG several times for this depressed. If the rental car, GPS is very important, we need to take one. Booking online hotel, booked after confirmation letter in Chinese and English both, it is recommended that you set two all printed, the Chinese view their retention, English to the hotel. English is also a useful confirmation letter, that is, with latitude and longitude of the hotel. Yes, only the English letter of confirmation is, I don't know why, maybe the foreigner to the car more words the latitude and longitude numbers?, very useful, sometimes GPS input hotel name search is to enter the latitude and longitude of the method used to set goal! trip, sorry I just committed a lot of people's problems, that is greedy, can't wait to go places. Design journeys, I integrated a lot of travel experience, daily scheduled ride 200 km or so, one day, I think this should not be very tired. But the specific implementation I found every day, 200 km or too long. At home my LG drive fast cars is their own, very well. But the car is different to the speed, the car is not your own. This resulted in 200 km to open 3 hours or so, sometimes long, plus find the hotel, Check in, so basically every morning on the way, only in the afternoon to play, sometimes even to dusk, this greatly impact our tourism quality. I think if you go, I'll cut one or two small town, take steps to slow down, get more time to experience the charm of small town in Germany. Paris I left a lot of time and 5 days. But feels the time is not enough, so play with it very tired. If one day just go to one place, then a more leisurely pace. But Disney's day wasted, because Paris Disney is not worth, followed by Hong Kong Disneyland, Disneyland Paris, Disneyland in Shanghai, whether in terms of timing, economically discardable that category. But this is unfortunately nothing because Paris in my heart is definitely not only go to one place, this romantic and a heavy sense of history is definitely a city worth a go go! I remember in one article read, say a journey to the 12-13 days will have the feeling of tiredness. This time, realized that. Later days indeed feel tired, not just the physical and psychological. When the excitement of the early years is over, the landscape of stunning are also significantly lower, I even started homesick, so at the end of the trip had finally can go home feeling. If you are not a person of special exuberant energy, it is recommended that each time the travel time should not exceed 15 days to Europe tourist, I not only read online in advance many travels, his book also bought a lot can be said to have done enough homework, go with the two books, but these two books, I think the most useful, even when abroad is the most helpful, one is the Paris 5 days 4 nights, one is the Germany, a book on the GO! ". Another book is read by before you leave, is also helpful, but do not need to carry out, the name is "start" in the United Kingdom travel. The hotel I said, the Basic are set above the booking.com. Many people like to be family hotel that feels cheap, but I don't like it, feel it is to other people the feeling of home, makes me feel uncomfortable. And family hotel in all aspects of conditions of affirmation and a hotel, so I was booked in the hotel. Let us impressed by the hotel, there are three, an apartment-style hotel is Oxford, on hotels.com, this hotel is super high price and let us not forget. There are two homes is on booking.com, a home is Ruedesheim hotels, a family is Baden Baden hotel. Ruedesheim hotels is because of magic of the Rhine, and form Hotel Baden Baden is unlimitedRural scenery, make people feel themselves to be a person in the picture. Is there anything else? Ah yes, costs. All through my travels of people must have the feeling that we daily dinner must be in a restaurant eating, sometimes afternoon tea in the afternoon, or sweets, whenever I see ice cream is always tempted to one. In a Word, eating is arbitrary. Live, I basically follow the 40 euro per person per day in standard arrangement. Plane ticket, did not set to the lowest price. In such cases, the cost per person is 3 million Yuan. Which ticket $, other food lives $ row 2. I see a lot of people are talking their poor tour experience, including how to saving meals, how to find the cheapest accommodation. To be honest, I don't really agree with. Going abroad travel itself is the costliness, if you eat living demanding yourself, then the significance of tourism? of course, many people have the ability to search the airfares, or using integral for free accommodation, and so on, this kind of cheap, of course, is not the White is not accounted for. The final conclusion I came to consolidate my use of the site, which I used and determine the payment can be credit card online and secure website (I am white mice, hehe).

It is said that every summer vacation at the outset, the Paris to the South of the high speed will be disrupted because everyone get on the road, and want to get to the French Riviera, a nice city. &lt;p&gt;I go there when summer is over, but France friends just call me a pre-determined hotel. &lt;/p&gt; Facts prove that this proposal is correct: when I do well in preparing upstairs, just came in a guest has been told that there is no room. Hot line, it really is not blowing. &lt;p&gt;Notre-Dame and the business district &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I live location was very good, a few minutes to the railway station and not far away is the North-South of Medvedja Mulberry Street – nice. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Along the street, walk to the South, is a city of Notre-Dame (Notre Dame), a typical Gothic architecture. &lt;/p&gt; This area is a lively, bustling, even the currency exchange point seem dense. But I quickly through the crowd, be the opposite of the two corner attracts over. &lt;p&gt;Which side is a bit of street artists, literally a violinist, he is playing a tune, attracted many passers-by stop; la to dripping from his own intoxicated and narrow eyes, seems to have totally no where. &lt;/p&gt; On the other side stands the statue of a pure white — at least I for the first time such a thought, but later realized, when someone to "statue" at the foot of the small crates, put a coin, he will slowly and gracefully spinning up, thanks to new, and then fixed in position. The art of begging, there is no point for force do not really well. Start your own thought, where business districts may be similar, they appear, but Subversion my prejudices, even had some people in the streets of interest. &lt;p&gt;United Kingdom Binhai road and Angel Bay &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;From Mei Goodison Boulevard has been to the South, the header is the beach. &lt;/p&gt; Along the coast is the famous seaside road, United Kingdom (Promenade des Anglais), roadsides are tall palm trees, sea breeze blowing, the swaying along, as are all lazy Eastern Mediterranean style. Here's the first feeling is that nothing here is more suitable for a walk! ", however French inside Promenade", it is really a walk. &lt;p&gt;May is the summer's sake, this man down the road. &lt;/p&gt; Some visitors, like me, camera in hand; there are some dog old gentleman, the old lady, pulled a rope in his hand, face their own pet nagging; distant places, there are one or two couples, huddled together in the weather to kiss, and several of the skateboard, roller, from their side after, will playfully blows the whistle ... &lt;p&gt;United Kingdom on the coastal Avenue has many offices, you can direct the next steps to the beach. &lt;/p&gt; The name of this Bay is very moving, called Angel Bay (Baie des Anges), and I also talked to some France friends had a joke and asked is not every year to sunbathing on the beach of beautiful women too much, so even the Gulf that gives up this name. &lt;p&gt;This beach is the beach, is quite difficult to walk on. &lt;/p&gt; So I simply do not go, an in-place to sit, facing the front of this piece of blue sea. At dusk, the outline of the Sun is still a little on the horizon, to the West of the horizon, has been dyed red, and as the sun slowly falling, the sky of a flush, gradually spread out, like it was in the sky color, as if a blink of an eye becomes a tons of huoshaoyun. But the distance of the sea, like the Kindle, a golden, with wave. In the horizon, Nice airport landing aircraft, such as big bird General over this piece hongxia, lost in the vast twilight. &lt;p&gt;On the day of the edge of the bright colors quickly faded net of the time, I was reluctant to stand up. &lt;/p&gt; Then look to the East, and don't have a picture. Located in the eastern hills of nice old town, at the moment are brightly lit, shines at night, full of quiet and calm, so you can't help but want to go near it. &lt;p&gt;The old city of Nice &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nice old city is a place to go. &lt;/p&gt; Because of the urban planning in Nice, is in the old side of the other new urban, benefit from this, 17, 18 century old save quite good. It is worthy of reference. &lt;p&gt;A distinctive feature of the old town is its tone. &lt;/p&gt; Almost the majority of the buildings walls are bright yellow, in the Eastern Mediterranean pure sunlight, bright images, many people are so addicted to this color has conquered. In addition, the old town with the hills and tortuous lanes, lounge around here, but also into a lot of fun, you never know what the next corner, waiting for you to discover what new or surprise. In fact, we go to travel, not just to look like? &lt;p&gt;I was in the evening after a stroll into the old city of Nice. &lt;/p&gt; Alley on a lot of technology and decoration shops, very watchable. Street side several open fruit shops and flower shop, my feet a little pause, take a look at it, the boss will warmly greet you, ask what you want to buy. Later came to a small square, not far away there is a large public pool, to try and try again, tap water can evolve, mind suddenly surfaced some movie scenes: the early years of European towns and people carrying large bucket of small barrels, queuing at the public pool water. &lt;p&gt;In the small square near met a tourist, chatted for a while. &lt;/p&gt; I heard that I am a Chinese, he is very strong, tanxing from old style when it comes to a nice history, he tells me, Nice once belong to Italy. Then hear puzzled, then the "lessons", find out what is in 1860 in Nice finally became part of France. At that time the Kingdom of Italy in Sardinia, in order to complete the reunification of the Nice and Sava two ceded to France, in return for Napoleon agree with troop-contributing to Austria. The original freshness of streets and lanes, but also behind such a dust-laden memories. &lt;p&gt;Matisse Museum &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Matisse Museum, somewhat far in sago El &lt;/p&gt;(Cimiez) region. If you do not have a nice of this trip, I might have for the person will always be Matisse is a superficial concept-Fauvism painter. The "beast," how many words are often given a negative impression, it seems like an abstract painting, messy, can't understand. &lt;p&gt;Read the Museum's exhibits, found himself too literally guesses are not established, at least, he is not of these works are not acceptable. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Matisse lived in Nice for a long time, until the last 85 years old die from this. &lt;/p&gt; The city on his influence is very big, any color and light artist with a keen response, be nice and pure transparent Sun blind. The final choice of stay in this city, I would like to only one interpretation, and that is love. The Museum has paintings, called the "nice of the storm (Tempête à Nice), this may be regarded as the artist and the city is closely linked to a supporting it. &lt;p&gt;Travel Tip &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Transport: from Paris to Nice can choose aircraft or TGV (high-speed train), Paris Orly airport fly south of Nice flights to many; however, a recommendation by TGV is that you can experience the bullet speed of high-speed trains, the second is to have a certain distance along the Eastern Mediterranean coast, the scenery is very beautiful. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Booking: to Nice self-tour the best remember to advance reservation, especially in the summer tourist season. &lt;/p&gt; You may choose to chain hotels, compare developed throughout the network, a comparison to facilitate the reservation in advance, such as Ibis, through the phone or the network (www.ibishotel.com) fixed up the room. &lt;p&gt;Sun protection: Sun while it was a very pleasant things, but the beach of sunlight or strong, the need to pay attention to prevention, especially for women. &lt;/p&gt; Summer to nice beach, sunscreen and sunglasses with a sure is essential. &lt;p&gt;Travel: nice and not too big, from the MUI Goodison Boulevard to the United Kingdom to Nice coastal road and within walking distance of the old city, is not difficult; only the Matisse Museum is distant, can Med Mulberry Street by 15 bus past. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Currency exchange: in stations, airports nearby currency exchange points are not very cost-effective price, this is a first-hand experience, this is our station, the airport of things you sell your truth. &lt;/p&gt; If you do not worry, it's best to wait until the city then Exchange, point to more, as opposed to a more reasonable price. &lt;p&gt;Language Exchange: Nice is a tourist city, on the ground to communicate basic English no problem. &lt;/p&gt; However if you are willing to try to say simple French, such as Hello (Bonjour), thank you (Merci) and so on, the effect will be quite different, do not believe a try. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-1135566485406964534?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/1135566485406964534/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/close-to-french-riviera-nice-line.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/1135566485406964534'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/1135566485406964534'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/close-to-french-riviera-nice-line.html' title='Close to the French Riviera – nice line France'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-9150287689422073151</id><published>2011-03-18T05:12:00.007-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-18T05:12:27.054-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>Paris will go places</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;1.

I plan to go to the Louvre and the Arc de Triomphe and today the line, look at the weather, maybe you want to change the Paris museum tour. &lt;p&gt;Get on the subway in the Louvre of backdoor out of the station, through the corridor in the Centre of the Palace, the Palace Square in front of the pyramids, secretly on the sky next few men, exceptionally quiet. &lt;/p&gt; Waiting for me from the escalator down to the Louvre entrance-hall inside the pyramid, only to find there was already a head full of passengers, gathered a lot of visitors to get up early. I am extremely proud to bypass a column column is to buy a ticket in ' human lung ' took an English explanation of the data (in fact, it is a simple indoor maps), began to plan my trip to the Louvre. Probably swept a bit map, the discovery of some regret, not the Chinese exhibition hall, seems to be transferred to another is not a very famous museums. Here in addition to the so-called ' Lo floating Sambo ' is a must-see, does not seem to have something special to see, in particular those posing for us non-professionals. So with oil paintings from the statue of the past all the way. These three ' Bao ' are very clear on the map was marked location of the exhibition, the Museum also special as they made a lot of road signs. In fact not too worried about not find where to go, whenever you see crowded, congestion, it is one of the three. So, when I finally free free of stroll to the front of the ' Mona Lisa ', in addition to some curious looked at this world famous, but it does not have much other feeling, perhaps their eyes too complete, no art cells, it is to see this painting and those same next to people praise the masterpieces of what is so special in comparison. Where the Palace of the statue and oil painting collection is very rich, too rich, rich to some abuse, malvina, Goddess of victory ... All the way along the pedestrian walk on the wholesale market, began volume production of the goods, mostly nothing what interest me. After all, good and bad are relative, so many Acura so frequently placed together, there is no good and bad concept. &lt;p&gt;See some of the upset, then carefully looked at the map, go to the ' greetings ' Egypt's mummy (Mummy). &lt;/p&gt; There is a save very good medium build mummies, apart from the head seems to have the package again, the other parts of the body of the gauze is old old yellow pan out in black, especially the corrosion off hand seems to have some cloth, I stared to see if there is no escaping some dried bones or muscles. In such a small room next to it, there are a large number of animal mummies, bovine, sheep, birds, dogs and cats are crocodiles, Pack tightly, while others have completely recognize what species, I cannot help but think of ancient Chinese women badgered deformity of feet. Another African Hall exhibits has always been in my opinion, is highly modern abstract style, here, I would probably find cartoonist many create cartoon characters. Finally go to Art exhibition hall, de object here shows the various items, such as wooden furniture, glass and silver sculpture of tableware, luxury, and the Emperor's Crown and wand. &lt;p&gt;In the Louvre in you can still see many artists, bring a painting tool, has selected the works of their choice, before it began to expand his easel painting reproductions, also very realistic, not careful comparison with original really felt like. &lt;/p&gt; Spent five hours I haven't finished the half of the Louvre, he began to feel groggy and tired feet, so watch it seems to not be how I added some ' artistic temperament ', through the transparent left the Louvre pyramid. And also the famous British Museum, the Louvre, in addition to the extensive collections, the Palace is a splendid works of art from its architectural structure, the room decor and all can be seen, therefore, those who are not only considered the Hall Exhibition place, more like a pendulum full of rare treasures from the Palace. &lt;p&gt;When the rain has stopped, there are still a vaguely, two thin beam of sunlight through the heavy clouds shot down. &lt;/p&gt; So I go back to A plan, through the Louvre faces a park, walk to the Concorde. YuanWang, Concorde Center monument top is golden glittering hair shine. Unfortunately, when I go to the square, just enjoying the statue around the fountain, the rain is coming down. I bother you, belted Hat out of a hat, go on, go to the Arc de Triomphe to the affidavit. Pass-through to the triumphal arch of the second half of the road, is the famous shopping street, near the road. Can I watch the feel and the old road, Shenzhen shennan road than did not much difference, aside from here down the middle of the lane is narrow, wide sidewalks on both sides, the shop has some of the price high. Whereas both sides of the shop is not more advanced, such as GAP also popular brand. But, no matter what your brand, not me the proletariat can afford to spend. Mengmeng of rain to the world-famous street looks a bit out of the street only a few individuals, an umbrella, a brisk walk, apart from the rain and rapid footsteps, there is no other sounds. I pull up the tops collar, on both sides of the shop just wrapped up. &lt;p&gt;The gate of the Louvre, Concorde was able through monument to see the huge arches, through the drizzle of veil, before my eyes gradually clear up. &lt;/p&gt; Sitting in the arches at the bottom of the base to avoid the rain, breath, looked at the building. Not too many fancy, just a bit on the picture to see it more copies of reality. Do not think more, finding the entrance to produce my museum pass into the dark narrow stairs, a sigh of relief over several hammer old old waist too, up to the top of the arch. Standing on the seat is probably the Napoleon heart pain arches on a distant, excellent scenery. Eight neat Avenue to my feet as the starting point of uniform uniformity. The front is the Concorde and the Louvre, rear, is the number of new unique Paris skyscraperBuilding and they are around shape simple and modern La Defence (new Arc de Triomphe). Look around for a week in Paris this is almost the level of the short housing group, stands out in many sizes, shapes, the roofs of different colors, don't know which a church or a museum. The whole Paris, only a small arch out of one piece, from the most sophisticated that striking Cathedral-like construction, that is probably the Highland of Montmartre. Stand tall, wind is big, I began to pull hard nose, hit a few shivering from the other side down stairs, narrow spiral ladder go get my brain, down once confused Southeast Northwest. &lt;p&gt;See table for less than six, we intend to take the subway to go late closing Pang than degree Center (also known as the National Museum of modern art). &lt;/p&gt; To the Champs Elysees Street subway station walk, a middle-aged Chinese women came up and asked if I was in China, and then say the package here is very good, she wants to buy several more back away, but the store each person can only buy two, asked if I could help. The lines are too familiar! I'd told her that ' the next time if you really want to cheat to money please change lines then come '. Was also some very curious to see this scam next how operation, but still hold much less a matter of attitude, cool look at her, then turn left. Suddenly I felt very sad that these people get money abroad lose all China people's faces, but also his own people are deceived and acting very well, look, if you are not aware of this matter, wary and lower, maybe it was. (PostScript: later heard people say this is not a cheat you money, but rather to let you help her buy goods and then get back to selling, you have the time to help her ' stock ' so you can make a small pen. However you cannot confirm that all visitors or carefully. ） &lt;p&gt;Came to Pong here than degree, visited the three hours later, I do not know how to evaluate such a place, after much deliberation, that only the English text can be described as amazing. &lt;/p&gt; But I can say that the entire Paris really attracted me was here. Pang than degree does not like in the past people said is free of charge, in addition to the ticket office on the first floor, second floor dining room and small shop, and then to top it all up, you need to recount the Hall. Enter the first exhibition hall, the Hall of Central a ... Hmmm ... About tree sculpture, I nodded eye ' gaze ' this thing-sculpture is ... UH ... Shape is like a PIG, two end ears pulled a clothesline, Sun sock diku or something. To see such a mission but also changed the assassination of Mimi as works of art in the middle of the Hall, I giggle (in fact, facial cramps) does not make the second expression. And then we see a lot of the ' simple ' abstract works, simple-to-I just thought they put ' redwhiteblue ' plastic bag mounting a direct link, there's the white painted several lattices, seemingly arbitrary selected several grid color, I have called ' this also can Ah ', ' art. However, the more into it, the difficulty is big. For example, a House there in addition to the floor outside the 5 surface wall full of old clothes (like the clothes when the wallpaper used, because it is not a new dress, so I feel the smell of reflex a smell), there is a layout like a cave room, which was regarded as a ' art ', so I am puzzled. There is a Hall in the Centre of the irregular hung up several large screen, now playing artists creative process. Some interesting, some people laugh or cry, but there is one but the terrorist and nausea. Probably a to abuse their bodies as art genre, using knife himself out of several 1, 2 cm deep wounds, and then lie in the shop on the ground of the canvas to let his own blood natural formation patterns above, the final drill in their brain drill a hole, put the hands and feet tied canvas does not allow themselves to fall outside the canvas, from behind the black hole slowly left bleeding huicheng a trickle, neck, back, foot, a DC to canvas. After a while the man began to convulsions, struggling for a long time after slowly fell. I cannot see, next to some of the audience, but you also expose the disgust expression. I think this is the metamorphosis!!, I want to shout "crazy crazy!!!!" before the so-called ' ' contemporary art ' as fall fog sensation, now turned into a deep disgust with points. &lt;p&gt;Frowned upon the sick leave the Hall continued to go to visit the showroom of the other, but found the back of the exhibition is very interesting, what strange things can someone want to come out. &lt;/p&gt; In a room are sowing ownerless so-called TV, on the ground for inflatable bouncers to sit because ball is comfortable to sit up, those TV shows is very incredible, not by logic never know exactly what follows, therefore, although do not understand what the above said, I still enjoyed by watching two, while there are many child watch watching are not carefully roll the ball on the comedy scene. In addition to these, of course, not abstract paintings, but artists have to express the things you are I can understand, but he also had to be on their way of thinking into the way special admiration. Everything here is certainly on my Visual and sensory has brought about tremendous blast and freshness, seems to have some of the old thinking of a break. &lt;p&gt;With an incredible look out, we must focus on the comparison of the ' people '. &lt;/p&gt; In the Museum next to the small stalls have a thin little pancake, with its mix of several kinds of sauce, I only know it is chocolate, just call this. The boss with a brush to brush up on the pizza a thick layer of chocolate, and then folded into a triangle and gave it to me, biting, hot pancakes with chocolate taste really good, how are never so to eat. However this 2.6 euro little thing is not enough stuffed belly, so go back on the road also went to the supermarket Monoprix in the vicinity of the hotel. In addition to buy food, bought the power outlet plugs, because of the conversion to digital camera charger's last night when-Discover France's power plug has two small round hole, the Chinese and the British are not, almost mad, this way outlet does not have different ... ... (Note: it's Okay okay, then went to European Nations are outlet and France). &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(paris) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-5580779137859532430?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/5580779137859532430/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/lone-europe-3.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/5580779137859532430'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/5580779137859532430'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/lone-europe-3.html' title='Lone Europe 3'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-3252237933025808831</id><published>2011-03-18T05:12:00.003-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-18T05:12:14.764-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>Romantic and full of luggage – Paris Tour</title><content type='html'>More than ten hours of high-altitude bumpy, aircraft finally arrived at the CDG, despite a 23: 00 Beijing time, 6 hours time difference make Paris the romantic also bathed in the warm sunshine in the afternoon, breezy, not a hot, rather like the autumn season of Beijing. Some travel is to lose oneself, and I travel to find self. Tourism asked me to broaden their horizons, a taste of the world's rich and colorful. The joy of travel is found we can live, travel fun to surprise, often in casual. Of course, travel means that hard, you have to pay a manual; travel means that creating, you will find different; travel means pleasure-do you want to abandon worry; travel means everything, look at you like? I? I seek is natural, all natural things are my love, Paris is no these, here to romantic and renowned, but Paris is a beautiful, almost all of Paris's attractions concentrate on the Seine River, North Shore, starting from the Arc de Triomphe and the Champs Elysees Avenue along the big and small Palace National Gallery, you can reach the Concorde, proceed via du Le Lai Garden and small arc can arrive at the Louvre. &lt;p&gt;Etoile (Arc de Triomphe), almost everyone knows that behind the Arc de Triomphe and stirring actually contains a small yunshi, infertility, and composition of Josephine in order to conclude the diplomatic relations, Napoleon and marries another Austrian Imperial daughter Mary Louise, in order to organize a scenery luxurious, lifetime wedding, Napoleon planned for brides across the Arc de Triomphe, the Louvre wedding and ordered the construction of the Arc de Triomphe. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;While small arc de Triomphe is actually more than its beauty. &lt;/p&gt; The entire small arc de Triomphe reveals strong Roman style, the Arc de Triomphe are to Napoleon prosperous times and war as the main theme, the highest four door of horse racing horse was plundered from Venice San Marco Church, returned to Italy after a stay in replication. &lt;p&gt;Louvre (Louvre Museum) is located on the North Bank of the Seine in Paris City Centre, is the heart of Paris. &lt;/p&gt; It's the whole building is the "U"-shaped, covers an area of 24 hectares of land, building area of 4.8 hectares, 680 meters in length. Is the world's most famous and biggest treasure trove of art, is one of the world, the Palace of art and the Chambers of Wanbao. At the same time, the Louvre is France's history of the oldest Royal Palace. &lt;p&gt;Through the Louvre to the West Beach Island, the famous Notre Dame de Paris (Notre Dame de Paris), is located on it. &lt;/p&gt; Hugo's "clock tower weirdo" live here. Notre Dame was built before and during the year, 1163 four hundred years before completion, is the Gothic church, finely chiseled, superlative craftsmanship, especially the main entrance of the three large arches on a total of over a thousand people in relief, very detailed. Out of the West Bank to the island is the site of the Bastille, the revolution a fire the Bastille, now only a memorial to this column. &lt;p&gt;Along the South shore from the Eiffel Tower, the Invalides (Napoleon's tomb is located in the dome below), the Seine River's most beautiful bridge--Alexandre III bridge, built in 1900, the world's most beautiful bridge of 107 metres in length by a bridge arch bridge, the bridge is low in order not to affect the Champs Elysees and the vision of the Invalides. &lt;/p&gt; As was the symbol of the Franco-Russian friendship, bridge to its founder, Czar Nicholas II's father-Alexandre III named. Both ends of the bridge, on both sides, each with a huge stone pillar, stone pillar, is copper-plated statue group of Knights, flying horse flutter to Yang, very vivid, is an excellent work of art. Each entrance to the bridge is erected a tall corner post. The bridge is a group of aquatic fauna and flora pattern and a set of Garland pattern; bridge, works fine metal Streetlight at night more charm. After the bridge is the Bourbon Palace (also known as the National Assembly), it is a 260 years history of classical architecture. The original is the daughter of King Louis XIV Duchess of Bourbon Palace, 1789, the Bourbon Palace almost always is France's highest legislative body. It is seen as a symbol of France law. &lt;p&gt;The cruise in Paris, I also see the shore there are snack spread pancakes, the booth is a blond Auntie, France was really I'm surprised that our eating culture is everywhere! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In addition to the attractions along the Seine River, Paris, there are many places to go, which is located in the Seine River on the north shore of Montmartre Hill of the Sacred Heart Church, is the highest point in Paris. &lt;/p&gt; Here, you can see half of Paris. Sacred Heart Cathedral to commemorate the Franco-Prussian war in 1870, Prussian invasion of France, Paris was besieged city's 4-month period, all the food is eaten by a dry and may want to see the war, to Paris from the threat of war. Thus the construction of the sacred heart of Jesus Church thanks. &lt;p&gt;Accustomed to Beijing's big, in fact, Paris relatively speaking is a small city. &lt;/p&gt; Although only 700 years of history, but in the midst, anytime, anywhere, can appreciate the rich history of France culture, broken Hill-atmosphere, elegant romance. I like her, not only culturally, more climate comfort, it is affected by the Gulf stream influence, is a relatively mild climate.

Intrauterine everywhere designs from around the world of precious works of art, including a fine porcelain in ancient China. The Versailles palace gives people the feeling you can only use one word to describe, it is magnificent. According to our guide said that they learned Spanish art history students ' previous test, teachers often take them here, with the fingers with a painting or a building ask them what's in the works, it represents what is the significance of the role, what is it, my God, look we have sickened so much how to remember, this is the old saying goes "amateur expert at Yue cabbage". &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In utero through "hilarious", came out to see just in front of the Palace has a unique style of the "French style" garden, garden with trees and flowers and facsimile, Canal popple, lawn, pool, fountains and composed of variable geometry Avenue, seen after feel beautiful, can be considered one of the world's most beautiful garden in the world. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; It and Chinese classical and Imperial garden has a distinct style, it is artificial and Polish, extremely high symmetry and geometry. It is said that the first two year old India rented and steel King on Versailles holding her daughter's wedding, is a luxury. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;From Versailles out ends we reached France first day's itinerary, team leader said at his own expense, to enjoy the night can be arranged Moulin Rouge show, had sat for nearly ten hours of aircraft, the aircraft began nonstop again today, people are a little tired, but would like to think of going to the Moulin Rouge in Paris do not look at the performance a little bit unwilling as Moulin Rouge is now the world cant dance art stand out performances of the Holy Land pussy brings together, into a ghostly symbol of Paris nightlife, has become the world's visitors to Paris to see as quickly as required. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; So they decided to cheer up continues to "combat". And listen to the professionals say that the best way to reverse the time difference is first days put themselves extremely tired, then sleep, rest your head would have basically no problem. Since the first performances of location is not very good, so the team to help us set a half past nine in the second field. The European day in early summer time is very long, in the us on a tour of this period of time each day when the Sun also gathered high up in the sky, when you want to market around Genius will slowly fading. Twinkle when we arrived at the Moulin Rouge, well see Moulin Rouge's logo — a big windmill set up on the roof, with colorful lights that stand out. Approached again, start from the Moulin Rouge at the door waiting to see the second crowd had already stretched out hundreds meters, is really overdone it. A car we quickly joined the queue of the crowd, I do not know is not what we came too late, in the outermost row of nearly an hour team, almost support when you finally can approach. Approach to find seats, our seats in the stage following the first row, just not in the middle position, slightly pull over. A sitting with the waiter brought champagne, red, white wine on the table for guests to drink, if you don't drink guests also can call the waiter brought drinks. Moulin Rouge cabaret is a unique set of dance, acrobatics, Opusculum as one of the performing arts. There are bicycle dingwan acrobatics; audience actor interactive small humor; there are also excellent Kung Fu man twin shape Act. One of the last perihelion is unique in Paris features "Kankan dance". Stage performances of actress about 40, actor around 20 members, is the world's top boyfriends: pretty woman, now in many parts of the song and dance performances are put "Kankan dance" as an important performances. But oh, so nice program I see half of the time actually fell asleep, so sleepy that support. Fortunately, in the "dance" performance before Kankan I woke up and saw the final days of the last show. Read performance is already a local time at twelve o'clock, åœ — äº¬æ — ¶é — ' is the second morning six or seven o'clock, but this time it is the most lively nightlife Paris, Moulin Rouge, next to the bar full of people, disco door also in a long line waiting for admission. But we already sleepy let alone inBack to the hotel by car, we are all asleep, go back to sleep right after it, the hotel has finally come to an end in Paris the first day's itinerary. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;24, because trips not too catch, but the first day we were all tired, so the team let us sleep gelanjue, enough sleep, and we are good in the spirit, our today's second trip to the famous Eiffel Tower. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; The car along the Seine River towards the West, to the Eiffel Tower near Alma bridge, team leader pointed to bridge a golden roses sculpture tells us that this is in memory of Diana's sculpture. When Diana vehicles in order to avoid the paparazzi tracking, open to the Alma bridge underground channel, over 180 km/h speed car suddenly went out of control and crashed in the tunnel of the 13 root boundaries for cement column, make a 360 and transformation, and then hit the wall on the right side, so that Diana was seriously injured, and finally died from injuries. People in this place a sculpture to commemorate the premature fading of the wind rose, until now can often hold roses placed in a sculpture by said. Eiffel Tower following a large square, but no entry vehicles, we have a car at the perimeter, through a gravel road, saw a dense woods behind the top of the Eiffel Tower, is magnificent. Near saw was shocked the whole square is packed crowd in the queue waiting to go abroad on a tower to visit and I do not for the first time, never in which attractions to see various attractions such as the Paris abuzz (including this in other European countries in various places), it appears that Paris really is a fascinating world of everyone to aspire to. Fortunately, our tour takes us to a correct team didn't wait long before we can take the lift on the tower. The Eiffel Tower is the symbol of Paris, and New York's Empire State building, Tokyo Tower and was hailed as the three famous building in the West. Eiffel Tower occupies a hectares, stands in the Paris urban area, the Seine, in addition to the God of the square four feet with the reinforced cement, the whole body with steel, Tower body weight is 7000 tons. Eiffel Tower built by land and 1889, architect Eiffel designed, built the original intention of the Eiffel Tower is to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the great revolution in France and meet at the Paris International Exposition, is built is quite controversial, co-brand protest walks up to 300 people, including the famous writer Dumas, Emile Zola and small. However, the tower was completed, has had a worldwide sensation at a Paris overthrew his as well as in all of France's most representative and symbolic buildings, and even become the symbol of Paris and France. In 1931, prior to the completion of the New York Empire State building, the Eiffel Tower has 45 years the position of the world's buildings. Full-tower height 320 meters, three-storey, first storey 57 m, the second storey 115 m, the third layer of 274 metres. In addition to the third tier platform does not have the slit, the other portion is open. From the tower block to the top of the Tower has a total of 1711-ladder, now installed elevator, but we still see many people choose to walk on the tower. Tower of each layer has a bar and a restaurant for tourists in the rest of the taste of the unique charm of Paris panorama, skies, here you can see up to 70 km/h within the scene. Standing in the elevator at the elevator has always been a bit slowly rising, for fear of me in the elevator up to the third tier when suddenly feel a little feet soft, hastened to hold the people around you. Also good out of the elevator a little rest feel much, or not at all afraid to go outside to see the beautiful scenery of Paris, we visited the Eiffel Tower on this day is sunny weather, you can clear the landscape in the distance, you can see the Tower of the feet of the Seine River in the city, really is a very beautiful picture. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Visit the completion of the Eiffel Tower is basically the end of our visit to Europe France section of the itinerary. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Travel in addition to the various attractions, sightseeing tours, and of course shopping is also an important part of the essential. In the European trip shopping points are all parts of the large department stores, at this point than domestic local specialized cheat tourists fixed-point shopping stores. In Paris we go of course the famous Lafayette, Paris Lafayette department store was born in 1839, it occupies the Boulevard Haussmann, close to 40, of the Paris Opera. It was by virtue of luxury Palace renovation caused a sensation. In the giant Golden helmet baizhantingshi carved domes, and from figure chuoyue, like going to a party in the middle ages, shopping really became a kind of enjoyment. Shop with seven-storey, divided into two parts, it is said that a daily average of some 8 million tourists visit, it has almost all the world's fashion brand, has become a wind vane of huadu fashion. Lafayette's first floor is the cosmetics counters with leather, owns the world's largest perfumery and cosmetic monopoly area, covering 260 top brand-name products. Unfortunately we can only here around an hour's time, and people Toth to buy a new bag LV, it is only a stroll on the first floor. LV's counter on the first floor is the biggest one, but also into luggage counter and watches, accessories of two parts, used in Hong Kong LV boutique see similar buying situations, Lafayette in Paris today again seen, shop packed with tourists, States may be the last two years this brand in mainland is relatively popular cafes, shops and many Chinese salesman, so for me, it is convenient to many, at least not chicken with duck. I bought two packages still have a little time on the first floor is a good idea, by the way, wash the eyes, see seldom see luxury. I found in Lafayette except LV, gucci, prada, love mashi has a casino, other times we saw many Hong Kong brands such as: CELINE, CHLOE, even just in the Atrium has a booth, we understand the real luxury or too little. Prepare a collection to counter to get tax refund formalities in Lafayette shopping reaches a certain amount you can get about 10% of the rebate, the counter staff took one look at my list that you can participate in the lucky draw, and handed me a box of the lottery, I picked out four, while scraping side said: "well, I am not winning life, lucky I have never been in. "Indeed I shaveThe three cards are all "thank you patronize", has done all of the prepared, but the fourth piece was blown up with a first prize, gosh, I don't believe. Staff also say your luck too good, very few people in the first prize. When I saw it, register it so, although the prizes are just a small Swarovski Crystal small rodents, but it makes me very happy. Later I also jokingly said that there seemed to be beyond my shopping is to Paris Lafayette comes, at least here I have some good luck. Team leader urges us to the collection you want to go to lunch, after lunch we'll end our trip in France, to the distance from Paris to Luxembourg of 390 kilometres away. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Versailles arched roof) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Versailles mirror Hall) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Eiffel Tower) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(From the Eiffel Tower to see Paris scene) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(See on the Eiffel Tower of Paris scene) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-8376942207741048606?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/8376942207741048606/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/making-visit-to-europe-eiffel-tower.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/8376942207741048606'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/8376942207741048606'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/making-visit-to-europe-eiffel-tower.html' title='Making a visit to Europe, the Eiffel Tower, Versailles palace'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-5720712083444110442</id><published>2011-03-09T23:02:00.011-08:00</published><updated>2011-03-09T23:02:38.975-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>Floating light glimpse of France Italy (4) of Florence, Pisa, Italy</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Floating light glimpse of France Italy (4) &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Italy: Florence Pisa &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The advantage is that with tuanyou need not worry about food, housing, transportation, and even play, where a drop, to! you eat, sleep, play, free from worry down free from worry, but lacks a lot of fun and excitement. &lt;/p&gt; Recently happened to the travel channel in play long piece: ride to Berlin. Intermittent saw a few paragraphs, good hygiene envy Ah. The root of the deep-seated reasons, may I have this deep in the restless cells, perhaps in this life I can not come back to this, but it does not stand in the way of my heart. In contrast, our travel flavor with cardboard? &lt;p&gt;The recent positive impressions in the past few years our domestic life of the people are being degraded and the children all of life is to learn exam, all adult life is working to earn money, to the old, men of old habits of thinking and doing, won't enjoy life and start a new round for next-generation tighten mortgage buy House, until the end. &lt;/p&gt; We may wish to put aside all interference factors if you you want what is life like? person's desire is endless, endless, so we are always in secular shackles (in fact also own) struggling, glory and self-righteous. &lt;p&gt;A United Kingdom man in his year of the Provence, "wrote: I am a rush city people I enjoy the bustling lost health and peace of mind I yawn. no appetite. temper. There is a slight melancholy paranoia suddenly. I want to get away from it all. ... &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;D3: 16 February (Tue) Florence, Pisa weather: cloudy with light rain &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Europe hotel are very small, but the heat is very hot, because long ago was called prevention of needle, so be prepared, the day before on the bus, the Guide says that the best it resisted don't fall asleep, or to the hotel the bed time to sleep, then the difference is no easy way around it. &lt;/p&gt; I think the majority of travellers are not deliberately insists that I was no exception, then bus shook, easy drowsy, as a result, the next morning was less than 5 points woke up, tossing and turning, or 6 point of it, anyway, just like clay pot of boiling water, with the province's tie Guan Yin, give us six filled with tea, to insist on one day. But at noon or at places to eat, usually we will once again added water. &lt;p&gt;Western-style breakfast to subsequently became our nightmare (except the two babes, fawning), basic are cool, daily bread, jams, ice milk, hot coffee, drink it every day, such as beibuzhu bored very nostalgic about China's porridge, pickles or a bottle of hot sauce, we highly unified feel that, next time you come to the West, to bring some mustard or something. &lt;/p&gt; In fact, a fair that people that Croissant and a baked hard wheat bread or very authentic, very authentic, but who makes us long for a Chinese stomach, eat more absolute acclimatized. &lt;p&gt;Florence has been translated into the famous poet-MO: Firenze roller printed poetic than transliteration, somehow did not continue down. &lt;/p&gt; Here is the cradle of Renaissance Italy, Arno River in the city, there are 7 bridge. Here was a Renaissance painting and poetry of the cradle, Dante (the Divine Comedy "), bogaqiu (10 on"), Galileo (scientists) are born here, later known as Renaissance art "three," da-da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael had become party to this end, eternal art history. Therefore been someone called open-air museum in Florence. &lt;p&gt;Came to the Buddha, you of course know meidiqi family, Florence still lives in later generations are related to this family. &lt;/p&gt; A long time, meidiqi family are Buddhist city of protection, is also an enabler of Renaissance art, appreciation and collection. It can be said that without this family is not today's stayed in Florence! led our walk at the municipal square sculpture group, standing in the drizzle, trancelike feeling, each sculpture are bare rendering in front of you while you were surrounded by a central, insight into the secrets of your heart. &lt;p&gt;(Hidden behind the decision makers — meidiqi family statue of Cosimo) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(David's sculpture that symbolizes strength, perfect and harmonious) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Face and entire body's tension of the Lion) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Not all just a sculpture like a sketch art? is too much, see) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;People say that Italy has three more: men and women, passion statue remains, the Catholic Church. &lt;/p&gt; Alas, follow their hearts, LG is surely less pity, much like beauty meet opportunities Ah, I should have know Italy out of a handsome guy, how to not Italian foot so many female fans, accidentally shot to a photo, though details are not clear, you can probably see, Mira: &lt;p&gt;Europe's most famous three churches: St. Peter's Cathedral, Notre Dame Cathedral of white flowers, another in London, United Kingdom. &lt;/p&gt; This trip we saw two, are also considered lucky. &lt;p&gt;(Cathedral of Notre Dame of flowers, the right high Bell Tower is Joe Torre) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stayed with us about good collection, but didn't see her past tense, just friends in a shop, shopping, greeted us with a look at the past. &lt;/p&gt; Here I made a mistake, the mood. Italy is the leading producer of leather products, technology and design of the renowned at home and abroad, travel itinerary usually arrange shopping spots in Florence there are arrangements leather products shopping time, before I have plans to see bag and shoes shoes and the like, can't buy it's not necessarily, but if you are interested, of course, not to be missed. As a result I didn't implement the order, do not know whether it is direct to walk to shopping malls, thought to go back to the bus and drove on, and so I know when I have been late, playing tour guide mobile didn't get through, but by the time they agreed to the parking lot to catch up, keep up slowly, and that help shoppers which are so pure, so we waited in the car park is 50 minutes. You can imagine how I feel irritable and depressed! knew our journey along the street side shops all the way to go over there! there are quietly AhWarnow river company. Want to see the Guide to hair outburst, it is fire. In line with the principle of temperament Belle image, I have no problem is too large, just point out her. Also because if they are harvested after boarding, most say nothing meaning, not many good things, the mood was good traveling, a little psychological dark mile. &lt;p&gt;(LG shoot I am alone in the car park and sulked looks, looks like the thin light, in fact, the great fire) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And then to lunch and go. &lt;/p&gt; At noon today is a travel agency arrangements of authentic Italian meal, like usual but we're going to pizza hut. The higher the disappointed expectations, this is the permanent ancient invariable truth, red wine, salads, pizza, pasta and more general than we often eat a fine, also hard, anyway not wanna be fragrance, restate that beautiful feeling. Oh, and don't require tuanyou or so high expectations to reduce, so a little bit. &lt;p&gt;Pisa is most travellers are willing to go at your own expense, a 25 euro, you like me, hearing the Pisa think of Galileo and Newton's old. &lt;/p&gt; In fact, you're like me, are directed at the Tower of Pisa, famous great guys, who let our textbooks still has the leaning tower of Pisa and the chapter, got everyone know it so I do not know the reason why. &lt;p&gt;Pisa, Pisa is famous, is located in Central Italy, is the capital of Tuscany province. &lt;/p&gt; Pisa is Pisa Cathedral Bell Tower of a small, cylindrical, with a diameter of 16 m and a total of 8 floors, of which lasted more than 170 years to build. According to the record, was built to tier 3 due to some reason Foundation, for its high and low balance on the side of the settlement, counterproductive, heightening due to overloading more subsidence, then stop the building of more than 100 years. The Catholic Church's structure is generally divided into three parts, the former is the baptism in the Church, is the Church, Bell Tower, respectively after is to birth, baptism, the death of the living Church, pizza after Ascension Church of course not without a third part, so that later on in inclined access continues to be built upon completion, the Tower Center point off center line 2 m, after 600 years of continued extraversion, now deviate from about 4.5 m. The 1972 earthquake did not cause it to collapse, the reputation of great earthquake! &lt;p&gt;(You can see the Tower of more powerful, next to the Church only when the reference is true, if you have any tips to tilt range reduction, quickly giving advices brainstorming, local governments are award-winning collection, OH) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4 point, we started to Venice, of course, still live in the city (in fact, is the suburbs), and Chinese second generation or three generations of Chinese food. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;(Five dishes and a soup, sometimes 6 personal, sometimes 8 personal, vegetables, fruit and cabbage dundun is dundun is blood orange! we guess the cabbage and blood orange may locally is cheap vegetables and fruit. &lt;/p&gt; ） &lt;p&gt;(Almost all of the hotel is so small, 8 2 night late in only the room spacious. &lt;/p&gt; Sometimes crowded will not find a suitable place open trunk)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-5720712083444110442?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/5720712083444110442/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/floating-light-glimpse-of-france-italy_4452.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/5720712083444110442'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/5720712083444110442'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/floating-light-glimpse-of-france-italy_4452.html' title='Floating light glimpse of France Italy (4) of Florence, Pisa, Italy'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-8378178788991116513</id><published>2011-03-09T23:02:00.009-08:00</published><updated>2011-03-09T23:02:34.816-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>From the French Riviera to the Provence of noisy nice</title><content type='html'>Noisy nice &lt;p&gt;Select from the decision to travel to a destination, we did not spend too much time, maybe the Yves words gave me inspiration, a few days ago, he told me he was going to Saint Rafal on vacation. &lt;/p&gt; I on the map to find a half-day, see Saint Rafal in Marseille and Nice. Taking into account the fact that it now or in the winter, to also compare the cold north, I chose the southern Provence and French Riviera, including nice, Cannes, Monaco, Marseille and yawei farmers. Yves advised me that AIX · Ontario · Provence is well worth going to, but in their journeys, I forgot, only later to think of it, so ya from Marseille to farmers of that day, I was later increased this small city. &lt;p&gt;A week earlier, we need accommodation in three cities--nice, Marseille and yawei farmers — all booked hotels, February 19, Wednesday to buy a train ticket. &lt;/p&gt; Surprise my accident, the train is not easy, although it is not possible and internally, but we were sitting in a nonstop Nice TGV have no student discount tickets. So we bought a need to change trains in Marseille, 26, of ticket. I have lessons in the morning of Tuesday, you cannot use Yves ride — his driving to AIX – this seems to be some regret, especially when I see a 5% off ticket is 30 euros. But Tuesday is tall handsome Mr. class BOUCHE, I'd be happy to sacrifice a listen to his classes. &lt;p&gt;Before we all bought a travel book, Zhuang bought a Michelin Guide Vert France out of school, I bought a Petit Futé. &lt;/p&gt; But follow me on the journey, or that this went global "France fascicles. &lt;p&gt;US $ 26, 8: 00 am in PART-DIEU station entrance, two people have the habit of being late, smoothly into the station, the 9-point 06 minutes travel to the TGV Marseille. &lt;/p&gt; Sitting in my opposite is a young Arab boys, because the Arabs in France's reputation, we mostly think of him. Sitting opposite the village is a white aged women. This woman did not cause us to favor, her face so we agreed that she is not a good-tempered woman, she is always very serious expression, later also bought a cup just soak a slice of lemon in the water, from their wallet out of a bag of tea, the tea and juice by hand, extrusion and took out a round bread dipped in tea and eat. We cannot understand this way of eating, have no opinion on this woman. Later we met when we were frustrated in nice thing when joke this woman is affliction, destruction of our journey. &lt;p&gt;More than 12 points, arrive at Marseille immediately climbed to Nice of TER. &lt;/p&gt; Aisle on the other side of the two seats is a poor man's appearance with his seven-year-old son. The boy had no quiet, not playing with his great sound of a toy car, is disturbing his dad look at this look at that, although his eyes as big as Westerners, but some highlights, unfortunately, this guy also has a very prominent in big ears. For me, the experienced domestic stations and trains in the dirty and noisy, the boy made sound doesn't affect me, but it is not. Chong Anyway, the movie was described in the train to get acquainted with a rich handsome guy's romantic story seems unlikely. &lt;p&gt;But after the departure from Marseille, car window scenery is well worth appreciation, we are not far from the sea; especially after Cannes, it is essentially by the sea. &lt;/p&gt; Sea water and not during the winter and dark blue it beautiful, but only the "Eastern Mediterranean" this word is enough to let our minds. Cannes does not seem like a luxury we imagine, but after a colossal and styling peculiar hotel or tell us this is a rich person to the holiday place. &lt;p&gt;More than 2 pm arrival in Nice, the railway station is a busy road, so we surprised a lot across the street in the restaurant, on the road quite see several Oriental. &lt;/p&gt; But we judge all Japan — nice this place, not just for money and close to the West of Japan to travel?: so those in the restaurant may also be prepared for these people in Japan. Is not it? next to a change in foreign currency, it is written with the kanji for "word". Japan here for euros, you can begin their experience France romantic trip. &lt;p&gt;Beside some Palm trees and large Cactus, reminds us that we came to the warm South. &lt;/p&gt; Follow main street to the North, Jean-Médecin through several path, found at Dijon road (Rue de Dijon), we want to live in two days of the hotel. Dijon is a quiet, narrow path. Hotel Comté de Nice is called, regardless of the name is not from a Duke, we'd like Ah Q can meet myself. &lt;p&gt;The hotel is not big, not as domestic hotel, as long as the lobby on the stars are bright magnificence. &lt;/p&gt; European hotel, except in accordance with United States person mode operation and management of prestigious hotels, are small and inconspicuous. This 2-star hotel in the so-called Hall, a reception desk and a sofa, no worse than a hostel. Front desk guy attitude is mild, in the confirmation of my booking of a room, took out two keys, tell me the room 018 and 003, rooms to choose from, let's see the room and then decide. Because know 003, room is on the ground floor, and unanimously decided to never have to look at the House, is certainly going to 018. Thus the key to the No. 003 returned to him, take the lift on the first floor, second floor, in the country. Left foreground front guy gave me a nice map, and the main ornamental destinations marked out. &lt;p&gt;The room is not big, two pieces together in bed almost filled the space, naturally there will be no more domestic hotel standard room, desk, armchairs and small round. &lt;/p&gt; Village on the bathroom also quite satisfactory, because there is a very clean the bathtub. We are wondering if the room is not TV, Zhuang raised his head, but found a little TV high hanging on the bedSurface of the wall. Bed covered with white linens and duvet, European hotel of equipment to do so: maybe not so complete luxury home, but are assured of the health and a clean. Open the window, is an ancient and large buildings. Later when we went out after this building, he saw this is similar to the courtyard of the building, a few door numbers are written on a certain doctor's name. Chong said to me: "it seems that France's doctors are really rich, when we do go to study medicine?" until later when we in the waterfront of Ann Gray Trail (Promenade des Anglais) walking, we also see these faces the sea of little house on the lawyer's brand, I said to her: "or lawyers most money to see people live in the sea view room, or small don't ye do (we have Villa called don't ye)!" &lt;p&gt;Rest, we have started a nice trip. &lt;/p&gt; In accordance with the "go global, integrated on the introduction of just the front man of maps and flags, I said to the village along Jean-MUI Henderson Avenue (Avenue Jean Médecin) all the way to the South, after Marseille that square (Place Masséna) to the beach. The beach of the West is Ann Gray Trail, is a gathering of all senior hotel; the East coast of the United States (Quai des Etats Unis), junction is nice Theatre, along the United States Coast to the East to the Castle Hill, down the mountain after Northwest edge is the old town of Nice. Starting! &lt;p&gt;I do not like MUI desen Avenue, auto sound very noisy, must be amplified voice, and Lyon's quiet cannot, and other cities in France, dust seems to be compared. &lt;/p&gt; The good news is that soon came to Marseille's square, the Plaza of the three sides are temporary grandstand Wai, both sides of the shaft enormous neon wall. I know this is the Nice Carnival days. In the go global "mean the end of February each year, 2 months last Tuesday is the last day. But that day is Wednesday, I think that Carnival has ended, the next day I know this is not the case. Because Marcelo Plaza's road has been closed, we are back from the stands next to have in the past, open spaces have a giant Ferris wheel, according to the experience in Lyon, I guess also for carnivals and temporary structures, however this Ferris wheel seems to be better than Lyon every year at Christmas erected the Ferris wheel to prettier. &lt;p&gt;Quickly go to the beach, Nice theatre let us disappointed. &lt;/p&gt; In the look up Lyon that perfect combination of classic and modern, bright and not luxury Grand Theatre, nice old building of the theatre because too naive, we surprised. The travel all over the world, "says, Nice is the world's rich travel places, if rich people want to see a high quality concerts, theatre cannot be so low? but true. &lt;p&gt;Through theatre, we went to the beach. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Very often, I suspect, a pedestrian walk past many places is not a good thing. &lt;/p&gt; This doubt went to the Alps skiing. When we see in Grenoble Street seems to be in close proximity of the mountains, when we stay in the Alps enjoy the exhilarating and luxuriant Pine Mountain, Jiang and beams are issued a surprise, but I always felt that all of these sights are already in my vision, I seem to have no surprises. I wonder whether they have lost their innocence and childlike curiosity. This came to the seashore or in Nice. Because seen the sea, Qinhuangdao sea, Qingdao, Xiamen, sea, sea of Hainan, even the Maldives in the Indian Ocean, the sea has lost a young man, the longing and worship. When Zhuang in admiring this Eastern Mediterranean blue sea and symbolizes the tropical Palm trees, I do not like the first time I saw the sea have been surging passion. But the arc of the coastline and is lined with hotels and apartments, tell me I really came to the album and the television in the past in order to see in the Eastern Mediterranean. &lt;p&gt;I gave the village taking photographs, passing a middle-aged couple stopped, I ask them first, they did not, on the contrary the gentleman said to the two of us took a picture. &lt;/p&gt; Although I have no such intention, but since he is so warm and I agreed. So he gave us a photo shoot, we had mutual road. This was in Europe is not unusual, but contrast later we encounter in Nice, I can't help but feel that this couple was very warm and friendly. &lt;p&gt;Zhuang used her camera to help me take pictures because the shutter sound is very small, she didn't hear, I have a continuous shooting up to six pieces. &lt;/p&gt; Later senses. She excitedly said: "Oh, you won't have to throw away these photos, you have to give as gifts. All the money and are likely to marry you, you have to send a card! "I smiled--marry a rich man, it seems that our journey always talk about the topic. &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8201160004010859327-8378178788991116513?l=france-travel-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/8378178788991116513/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/from-french-riviera-to-provence-of.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/8378178788991116513'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8201160004010859327/posts/default/8378178788991116513'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://france-travel-guide.blogspot.com/2011/03/from-french-riviera-to-provence-of.html' title='From the French Riviera to the Provence of noisy nice'/><author><name>Helena</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02693068322492503446</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201160004010859327.post-3451166932759826165</id><published>2011-03-09T23:02:00.007-08:00</published><updated>2011-03-09T23:02:28.422-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='[:]'/><title type='text'>France Monaco Italy 6, simple tour</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;My time is not very much, so the itinerary is relatively simple, I hope this article can on the time a strategy immediately but also wish to look at Eastern Mediterranean style friends help. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DAY 1: fly from London to Nice, arrival is 5 p.m., airport bus is day ticket 4 euros, so I suffer, only it went to the beach. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; If your plane is a morning or afternoon reach, you can use it to go around the city, take a look at the Museum. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DAY 2: the previous night at the hotel tour, some moves, so the morning with the mission to EZE and Monaco, 49 euros. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; The foreigner's tours are excellent mission, only four members of the tour. We walked along the F-1 racing road towards East, first to EZE, a hill with a small church, from the Hill you can see the sea, the scenery is very beautiful. Then we go to visit the factory, southern France FRAGONARD en Basic is provided here, and are the manual production of perfume and SOAP. In the shop a couple of Asian American, France on the United States have prejudices, their attitude is not very warm, very nice to me, I didn't buy that foreigners also said: I am sorry that you did not find the likes of perfume. This is different with China tours, shopping in Hong Kong, estimated to be called the "Hong Kong is a capitalist society, a bank service that you can't afford not to." Out the door and continue along F-1 racing road towards the East, the Road stopped once let us look at the foot of the sea and Marina. Finally to Monaco, we go to visit the Cathedral, and then go to the Castle, and finally everyone in the store to eat fast food. Then we go to the Casino, the big Casino to collect $ 10 tickets, everyone agreed that does not go in, so we'll go to the edge of the little casino play, I had always been lost, no way. I feel like a foreigner mission is good, not in a hurry or forced consumption and so disappointing. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DAY 3: morning to buy a train ticket: Italy and from VENTIMIGLIA; Cannes one-way. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Speaking of tickets, so long as you have a credit card you can buy ticket vending machines at the station buffet, advance booking or you can buy on the spot, free of the hassle of Queuing. Go to VENTIMIGLIA round 9 block (12-26-year-old), Cannes 4 pieces more than one way. I see on the Raiders Cannes have bus direct to Nice airport, so no need to wrap around the railway station. Go to VENTIMIGLIA train after Monaco, Raiders on some say stop playing a ring and then take the next bus, you can save money, but I disagree, for a few euros (dozens) leave a bad record why?, Neil also affect China's image. I met that day the police tickets, two men were away. VENTIMIGLIA is small but beautiful, narrow streets, a long bridge at one end attached to the shore. To my surprise in a street with many Chinese people out of the bag shop. Many of them are smuggled from Zhejiang, encounter 2003 Amnesty took identity, I tell them in recent years, China's economic take-off, you should see that they all go back to illegally out of a fine, I cannot say, watch the fellow not day and night to work while the foreigner is a leisurely stroll, reminds me of a OU Jing Song: &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Think about the refugees that went to see God's place &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;16,000 miles across the ocean tides &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Some died &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Some got luck and survived &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I wouldn't call it luck &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;They reached their destination &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Modern-day slavery without the plantation &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Them sneakers on your feet cost $100 a pop &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My people make 15 cents a day at sweatshops to make them kick &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So you can look good &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Think we open restaurants 'cause we cook good? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the street can take the bus to SAN REMO, feeling the city with almost VENTIMIGLIA, Nice, not too many features. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DAY4: morning train to Cannes, just 50 minutes, along the scenic beauty is not mentioned. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; Feeling here consumption than Nice high comparable with London, obvious than United States high, it appears that the teacher says makes sense: consider PPP (PURCHASING POWER PARITY), GDP United States first, China's second, the United Kingdom France in the sixth, seventh place. Cannes accommodation I set at the edge of the railway station, go easy. Afternoon, I visited the two museums, a 26-year-old students free tickets, qualified friends to remember with student card. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DAY5: morning went to Cannes movie kiosk Akira, SHARON STONE fingerprints in passing in the photograph, when shopping at noon and bought a CHRISTIAN AUDIGIER design clothes, discounted down to cheaper than in the United States, unlike the RALPH LAUREN in Europe is very expensive, we recommend that you go to the United States buy local or Saipan. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; In the afternoon I went to the beach in the Sun, foreign babes really open, free Sky Show. Lend me ten guts I dare not TOPLESS in public.
