First day:
We came from Saigon,Vietnam, one of beautiful country in Asian. We have a dream to visit European and this time we do. In our mind, Paris is a big city in France and eveything is modern, charm and classic. We flew by Vietnam airlines and reach Charles de Gaulle after19 hours on the plane :(.
Then we move to Gare du Nord by train, it is quite easy to find the way to reach there. Gard du Nord is quite bit and have a little messy by people, luggage with many nationality.
Paris is quite cold but we felt very well cause we came from Climate country. People here is very friendly, they asnwered all our question we need to know like location, street, transport. We really love on first day in European. Eveything is new with us and so exciting.
We walked to Francois Medici house with high expectation from his message. And we felt wonderfull by warm welcome from his father. He showed us eveything in house, bed room, toiletries how to use electricity and some free things in his regrigerator and on table ( free wine). We asked him many things and we always ready to answer us honestly. We loved his hospitality. We got a bit surprise about home entrance from European. We always must remember code number of house door to entrance. It is strong security for all houses, Vietnam house is almost none, they often use lock to locked the door.
We came out a bit late night to visit Champs-Élysées ( it is hard to pronoun but we did). Champs-Élysées is a huge street with many lights from Shops, Houses and Cars which made the street look so beautiful and active. We took some photos around and go to Eiffel tower at night.

The Second day we went around Champs-Élysées and Eiffel Tower again, this time we come closer than last night. We ate the baguette in Effiel Tower areas and it is the best paguette i ever have in my life. I ate a lot of Vietnamese baguette when i was childhood in our city. French baguette was enough soft with sausage, cheese and chilli sauce, it made you feel very comfortable in the morning. But i still love our Vietnamese baguette than. :)
We heard a lot about Love brigde before come to Paris. By internet, we saw a lot of people use their lock to locked on the bridge and we were thinking to make one when we come there. And luckily we made plan to visit this and The Lovren.
A lot of fellows were selling lock on the bridge with very cheap price but we can not buy from them. Because on the bridge they noted " please do not locked any lock on the bridge" cause it was heavy at all. Anyway we need to forget to locked something like to keep the bridge safety. The view on the bridge is wonderful and romantic, that is reason why a lot of couple come here to promise and swear by heart. This is place for love actually.

The Lovren |
We walked to The Lovren , it is so huge. We really like French building structure, they made everything so stable, reliable and is able maintain hundred and thousand years.
Then we took Hip on Hip off bus again to visit Notre Dame. In Ho Chi Minh, we also have one, we called Saigon Notre-Dame Basilica which French colonial built from 1863. Notre Dame de Paris with many small individually crafted statues were placed around the outside to serve as column supports and water spouts. Among these are the famous gargoyles, designed for water run-off, and chimeras.

We got one more day to visit Versaillies Castle after City visit. Versaillies is quite far from the city but we thought that we must do this.
We knew one French people who is very famous and he will be the top of famous people forever. He is Napoleon King and he is reason we must come to see his castle and some other kings.
Versaillies is big areas for visitors. We were lucky because we bought ticket entrance before arrive France. So we had no waiting to entrance. Even this was Winter time but still a lot of visitors around the world came here. It is reason look castle so tight inside.
Anyway we felt so much good after see all things about King, Queen and people stay in Castle before.
We had the good trip in Paris with a lot of experience there. See you again Paris.
