Paris - The City Of Arts & Cultures
Bonjour!

Paris! Well, well, who doesn’t want to visit this classic land? It’s one of those cities which everyone dreams of visiting at least once! Almost 23 million visitors in a year proves the hunger by tourists for sure. While Paris is a year-round destination, its European vibes take over in the summer, and this city can be seen at its absolute peak of visits in this season. Culture, fashion, romance, history, art — you name it, and this city puts it up for you!

Its famous ‘Paris’ (par EE in French) name is derived from its early inhabitants, the Celtic ‘Parissi’ tribe. Along the journey of ages, the city has come through a lot of its own ups and downs to reach where it is today. With my different travelling experiences, I have realised that it’s the people of that place, who provide a unique identity to it — with their beyond-life visions in the form of creativity and arts. And Paris is an absolute example of it!

City of Lights, City of Love, City of Monuments and Museums are few feathers which this city continues to carry over generations. Due to its leading role during the Age of Enlightenment and being one of the leading European cities to use gas street lights on a large scale, it has been referred as the City of Lights for centuries now. No wonder today it is glowing at nights to its absolute best and continues to carry on the legacy!

Photographing the dominant urban side of Paris was indeed a wonderful experience, and I totally enjoyed the photographic exploration of this place.
