What caught my attention more than anything while we were touring around Paris was the attention to design. Whether is was the play between a statue and its surroundings or the addition of symbols to a church or palace facade, there was attention paid to how things looked and more importantly what they meant. This is a place where stories and traditions are not just brought out at holidays, and (lucky enough for someone visiting) there was a new and interesting story around every corner. This counts my fourth time in Paris. I hope that it will not be my last as there is still so much to see and learn about this beautiful city.
If there's anyone out there actually reading this, please let me know if there are specifics (or if you have questions) you would prefer I explain in more depth.
