Paris, France

P.Ou and I went to Paris, France in April 11-17, 2007. Paris is a lovely city with lots of activities for tourists. We followed a guide book called Top 10 Paris to visit 10 highlights and Versailles. We were recommended to buy 5 days, zone 1-3 ticket for public transport and six-day museum passes which we could use them to travel around central Paris on a budget. We stayed in Best Western, Derby Eiffel Hotel in Ecole Militaire which closed to Eiffel Tower and there are many cafés which Parisians like to drink outside from morning until midnight. We ate a couple breakfasts in the hotel, after that we cooked instant noodles and coffee in our room. We also packed our lunch to eat in the park or the places that we visited.
For entertainment venues, we did not go to the famous Moulin Rouge, but we went to sit in the first row of Crazy Horse Saloon. The Saloon has a reputation for putting the most professional and sexiest production with striptease features together with glamorous dancing girls and other cabaret acts.
Except using mass transportation, we used our feet to travel around. I have gained great experience and 6 days in Paris seem to be a short period; I wish I could visit Paris again.
