Last month, on an urge, we decided to take a trip to Paris. Visiting France, especially Paris, has always been a dream of mine. Unfortunately, due to a busy schedule and various circumstances, I never found the time to go. Although Paris isn't far from the Netherlands, securing a direct train ticket proved nearly impossible. Typically, people book their train tickets 4-6 months in advance. Our visit to Paris was quite short, lasting only a day and two nights, which didn't leave us with much time to explore the city. Many advised that a stay of at least 3-4 days is necessary to truly experience Paris, but, as mentioned, I didn't have that time.
Despite the limited time, I made sure to visit the iconic Eiffel Tower and the renowned Louvre Museum. We also managed to glimpse several other monuments, though I knew this brief visit wasn't enough to fully appreciate these historic sites. Our explorations were cursory at best; we merely strolled along a few streets, most notably Rue de l'Université. This street was particularly beautiful, with its vibrant atmosphere, numerous cafes, and restaurants that added to its charm. The highlight of Rue de l'Université, however, was the unique perspective it offered of the Eiffel Tower, a view quite different from the typical tourist points.
Rue de l'Université is more than just a single street; it represents an entire area or perhaps a main street, although I am still uncertain about its exact designation. Nonetheless, its attraction was undeniable. The street's ambiance was lively and picturesque, making our short walk through it a memorable part of the trip.
Even though our stay in Paris was short, it provided a captivating glimpse into the city's beauty and culture. We enjoyed the little time we had, but it was clear that Paris has much more to offer. The advice to spend at least 3-4 days in the city was well-founded. With more time, we could have explored deeper into its rich history, visited more attractions, and perhaps discovered hidden gems beyond the usual tourist spots.
Despite the shortness of our visit, Paris left a lasting impression on me. I look forward to returning one day, with much time to immerse myself fully in all that Paris has to offer.
Have a nice day...

Priyan
