20 Top Interests in Paris (Autumn version)
Sekali lagi, aku tak akan bercerita panjang sebab kebanyakannya aku dah cerita dalam entry-entry lepas.
Map bawah tunjuk roughly kat mana attractions di Paris
Kalau korang nak zoom in map ni, boleh refer SINI
Ok, List aku macam kat bawah
1. Chateau de Versailles
Ranking teratas aku. Bagi yang tak suka castle boleh lupakan. Aku lebih kepada estate yang letak di bahagian belakang main palace; Marie Antoinne Estate
The Grand Palace
The Grand Canal
The Grand Trianon
Marie Antoinne Estate
Entry aku yang berkaitan dengan Chateau de Versailles bolek klik SINI
2. Eiffel Tower
Tak ada siapa yang datang Paris tapi tak pergi ke Eiffel Tower rasanya. Dua sen aku kalau pergi melawat Eiffel waktu siang, elok juga ulang pergi balik malam sebab berbaloi tengok light show. Walaupun tanpa light show, Eiffel Tower waktu malam pasti tak akan kecewakan kita. Dan kurang crowded dan lebih nyaman.
Entry pasal Effiel Tower samada klik SINI dan SINI
3. Seine River dan Seine River cruise
One of the famous river in the world, so jangan lepaskan peluang to enjoy the scenery.
Ada satu puisi pasal Seine yang aku suka dan aku nak share link dia, klik Thirty-Two-Bridges-Over-The-River-Seine-by-CurtimusMaximus.
Aku tak ambik river cruise sebab asyik menangguh-nangguh, last-last lupa terus tapi dengarnya best. Maybe boleh di masukkan ke dalam iternary
Klik SINI untuk offifial website. Kalau ambik Parispass ada discount untuk beli tiket cruise tapi pada pandangan aku sebelum beli Parispass buatlah calculation dulu samada worth atau tak.
4. The Lock bridge
A love lock or love padlock is a padlock which lovers lock to a bridge to symbolize their love - kata wikipedia. Dua sen aku, kalau nak tengok baik tengok sekarang. Jangan simpan hajat sampai 20 tahun dari sekarang sebab dah ada usul-usul nak dilupuskan. Kata satu online surat khabar- Parisians can't remember when it all began, but they have certainly grown increasing irritated by the tradition.
Semua ni start selepas dikhabarkan part of satu bridge runtuh pada 8 Jun 2014 lepas sebab tak boleh nak tampung berat yang datangnya dari padlock. Aku pernah bergambar di atas bridge ni (jambatan Pont des Arts yang letak dia berdepan dengan pintu masuk The Louvre) dan memang aku terlintas yang maybe satu hari nanti dia boleh runtuh sebab bukan seratus dua padlock di gantung kat situ, maybe sampai tahap puluhan ribu.
Pont del I'Archeveche bridge
Pont des Arts bridge
5. The Louvre pyramid
Di sinilah letaknya potret monalisa yang original
Pengalaman aku tentang Louvre aku share di SINI
6. Carre Court
Letak dia bersebelahan dengan pyramid.
Carre court - di sinilah letaknya The Louvre Museum
Carre court & the Louvre pyramid
7. Notre Dame Cathedral
Salah satu tarikan terpenting Paris dan di claim sebagai Cathedral terfamous di dunia.
Entry pasal Notre Dame klik SINI
8. Arc De Triomphe
One of the coolest monument di Paris.
Entry pasal Arc de Triomphe klik SINI
9. Champ-Elysees
Maybe boleh di kelaskan jalan yang terfamous di Paris. Penghubung antara Place de la Concorde dan Arc de Triompe dengan kepanjangan 1.9 km.
Aku tak ada gambar Champ-Elysees sebab the best way untuk ambik gambar dia kena naik puncak Arc de Triompe. Tapi aku ada berjalan di sebahagian jalannya. Ada beberapa shopping complex besar kat sini. Classified as high end area.
Gambar ihsan wikipedia
10. Sacre Coeur De Montmartre
Letaknya sedikit terkeluar dari bandaraya. 15 min train dari Paris tapi worth to visit.
Entry mengenai Sacre Coeur kat SINI
11. Jardin Des Tuileries
Taman bersebelahan dengan the Louvre. Kalau dari Louvre kita akan masuk melalui pintu gerbang yang seakan-akan Arc De Triomphe
ARc De Triomphe du Carrousel
Taman ni seolah-olah terbahagi kepada 2; greeny side & autumn side.
Greeny side
Autumn side
Antara puluhan statues
Grand Basin Rond
Entry pasal Jardin des Tuileries klik
SINI 12. Rue de Rivoli
Jalan belakang the Louvre. Barisan high end shoplots, 5 star hotel dan bars. Meriah area ni. Kitaorang jumpa street arts.
13. Place de la Concorde
Letak di hujung timur Jardin de Tuileries dan barat Champ- Elysse. Tugu penghormatan untuk salah seorang raja French, Louis XV.
14. Church de Madelaine
Church yang di bina in style of Greek temple. Letaknya di hujung jalan Rue Royale, dekat dengan Place Vendome, satu lagi high end shopping district. Walaupun aku tak sempat pergi dekat tapi aku dapat tengok exterior bangunannya, memang cantik. Di bina pada 1763.
15. Place Vendome
Asalnya Place Vendome ni adalah monument untuk mengingati askar-askar kepada raja Louis XIV . Pernah musnah dalam perang revolusi tapi di bina balik kemudiannya. Sekarang Place Vendome ni berdiri sebagai satu lagi high end shopping district. Untuk peminat LV, sinilah tempatnya. Aku mampu tengok dari luar kedai aje. nak melangkah masukpun aku tak mampu. Kat sini jugaklah bangunan mahkamah France.
16. Luxemborg Garden
Luxemborg Garden ni asalnya adalah taman untuk istana Luxemborg dan sekarang di buka untuk orang ramai. Di sini jugak ada Museum, Museum of Luxemborg
Kata official website dia (kes malas, copy and paste sahaja lah)- Situated on the border between Saint-Germain-des-Prés and the Latin Quarter, the Luxembourg Gardens, inspired by the Boboli Gardens in Florence, were created upon the initiative of Queen Marie de Medici in 1612. The gardens, which cover 25 hectares of land, are split into French gardens and English gardens. Between the two, lies a geometric forest and a large pond.
Ini aku yang bagi gelaran. Aku suka pedestrian walks di sepanjang Seine river sebab ada banyak stall yang jual second hand books dan majalah. So kepada sesapa yang into old and second hand books macam aku, korang boleh menyusuri Seine River. Booksellers ni di kenali jugak sebagai Les bouqinisters. Favorite aku yang mengadap Notre Dame Cathedral.
Ada jugak jual lukisan-lukisan celup so bagi yang suka paintings boleh try sini. Pengalaman aku, souvenier dari sini jugak lebih murah & kalau kena gaya boleh tawar.
18. Normal market dan flea market
Yang pasti aku memang suka pergi pasar. Any type of pasar. Pasar adalah story book kehidupan masyarakat setempat. Kitaorang berjaya ke satu pasar dekat dengan rumah tapi apa tah penyakit aku (apa lagi kalau tak pelupa!), aku boleh terlupa nak pergi flea market. Flea market sangat famous di Paris dan janji aku pada diri sendiri, next time aku wajib pergi apapun reason dia.
19. Rue St. Honore
Shopping district. Ada banyak kedai dan shopping complex for designer global chains macam Zara, H&M, Gap. Shopping complex di Paris seperhatian aku tak sebesar di KL. Aku tak jumpa pun yang besar macam KLCC atau Pavilion.. Yang terbesar tak silapa aku nama dia Boulevard Haussmann. Aku tak jumpa tapi aku ada terbaca. Mungkin aku terlepas pandang.
Tapi kita boleh jugak cuba kedai yang kecik. Maybe tak ada brand tapi kalau dah berkenan apa salahnya.
Kalau ada tenaga macam kitaorang ni jalan je sepanjang Rue St. Honore ni. Lebih lagi tenaga, masuk setiap kedai. Bukan kena bayarpun. Aku langkau-langkau aje tapi bagi yang suka shopping mesti terhibur. Bila penat boleh berenti rehat di pangkin.
Aku ada baca dari satu blog yang di satu tempat di Paris ni ada vending machine yang jual Jeans. Aku wish aku jumpa vending machine ni. So incase kalau korang pergi Paris, try pergi ke station Auber RER sebab si situlah katanya ada vending machine ni. Then cer cite kat kami semua.
20. Dataran Hotel de Ville
Aku masih lagi confused pasal Hotel de Ville ni. Samada dia betul-betul hotel atau pun tak. Wikipedia kata dia city's local administration building. Secara jujurnya pun dia tak namapk macam hotel. Yang aku tahu kat sini ada post office sebab aku pergi situ untuk pos poskad kepada CK. Tapi wikipedia tak pulak cerita kenapa dia di panggil Hotel de Ville.
Apapun tempat ni best untuk lepak di sebelah siang atau malam. Dataran di sangat luas dan bangunan dia sangat cantik. Masa lepak tu syok aje, rupa-rupanya lepas tu baru tahu tempat ni zaman dulu jadi tempat public execution. Peghh! sangat seram.
***
Yang aku missed
Moulin Rouge. Nak pergi tapi tak jumpa (baca: tak cukup berusaha). Aku akan try pergi kalau aku pergi Paris di masa depan. Aku ada tengok gambar, nampak macam better kalau pergi malam sebab lebih 'hidup' dengan lampu kaler-kaler.
The centre Pompidou. Aku cari tapi kenapa tah, aku tak jumpa sampai sudah (baca: masih tak cukup berusaha). Padahal cukup dekat dengan Hotel de ville. Di fahamkan Pompidou ni fungsi dia sebagai Library, research center dan jugak museum. Aku rasa apa yang menarik orang kepada dia adalah rupa paras dia yang unik. Dia mengingatkan aku macam scaffolding gergasi. Macam bangunan tak siap sikit-sikit pun ada
Thirty-Two Bridges Over The River Seine
"These New Bridge arches ironically are the oldest,
While Seine west from here, is tonight the boldest.
Kiss me above the Vert and Galant's teardrop Square
Hold my hand now as we look out le balcon sans care.
I give to you the oldest part of the city--the isle,
Come with, treasure this walk with me for a while.
Surrounded by the River I surround you with love
Treating you my jewel tenderly like a gentle dove.
Let's rest tonight--as we close day one of thirty-two
Sharing together on Parisian bridges' lantern hue
Let night's evening cool bring our arm's embrace
Serving life notice: We cross each bridge we face."
