Admiring Paris at night

The great American writer Ernest Hemingway in first half of last century has expressed about Paris so: “Paris is a holiday, which always stays with you”. This expression is familiar, perhaps, to each of us. And the local inhabitants of the capital call it “the city of light“. And it is not surprising, as shades and light in Paris are constantly in a unique game, at night and in the afternoon, at any time of the year. Light can fill in this or that place as if the sun has come nearer on outstretched arm distance in fractions of a second, but also quickly all can disappear in a dense fog, creating for us surprising medieval atmosphere. And a similar kaleidoscope of a play of light you can see and take pleasure in only if you go across Paris on foot.

In a former Soviet period in Russia this joke was rather popular:
Two old friends talk, and one speaks to another:
- The spring has come again, and again I want to go to Paris.
The second reasonably notices:
- Have you visited Paris last spring?
- No, but a year ago I wanted to visit it as much as this year…

Undoubtedly, almost everyone heard that Paris is called the city of artists and poets, however this definition is narrow enough, as the city is much more various and multilateral. The capital of France possesses huge “arsenal” of things that can please any (even the most exacting) traveler.
