FASHIONABLE PARIS
I took a walk from the Jardin du Luxembourg where my hotel was located towards the Seine River, Louvre and Palais Garnier.After a delicious lunch in a nice little restaurant close to the Orsay Museum, I went to another place with one of the best collections of Impressionists’ paintings in Paris – Musée Marmottan Monet.The building in which museum is located is a piece of art and history itself. It was built as a train station at the end of the 19th century and later on was converted to museum. So now it has this great combination of industrial architecture together with modern pieces of art and it works amazingly well!The museum has a great collection of Impressionist’s paintings and it is a must for anyone fond of that period.It has a beautiful collection of one of the best female Impressionists – Berthe Morisot. And the largest collection of the works of Claude Monet. It’s not a busy museum so there is a lot of space to enjoy some of the masterpieces of this style in The next place we went was Marias It was a day reserved for fashion, so I went to explore some of the famous vintage shops in the Marais neighborhood in the afternoon. I never spent much time in this area and it was such a pleasant surprise for me. I just loved its picturesque streets filled with small cute stores, caffes and restaurants. The whole area has a young alternative vibe.Marais is well known for some of the best vintage stores in Paris. You never know what you’re going to find in them – Dior earring or some other gem from 1980s. I wasn’t so lucky but I definitely enjoyed visiting them, checking the clothes they have and talking with other shoppers My last day in Paris started with one of the best breakfasts and the most amazing coffee I ever had. Then next place we went was The Eiffel tower.Once the tallest structure in the world, the Eiffel Tower is probably Europe's best known landmark and Paris's most famous symbol.
