The story about my trip to Europe

- 2nd day in Paris

In the guide book, there is Paris-tour course.
Starting point was near my aunt’s house so I decided to walk to the Eiffel Tower, but the weather didn’t help me :(

We all know that the Statue of Liberty in New York is a gift from France to congratulate the U.S. independence from England.

There is also the same statue in Paris, and this was a return gift from the U.S. for celebrating 100th anniversary of French Revolution.

Paris’ Statue of Liberty is looking at its sister in New York!

On my second day, I came to the Eiffel Tower to have a closer look, I was kinda worry about the weather and eventually it rained...

So I changed the plan and went the Orsay Museum to avoid rain.

▲ The way to the Orsay

Aleksandr Ⅲ Bridge is the most beautiful bridge in Paris!

When I got there, it was full of people. Maybe they thought exactly as I did.

There is the Statue of Liberty here too.

The museum was originally a train station.

In the past it used to be a hotel and theater but it reborn to art museum.

These are the most impressive works in Orsay!

After seeing everything to 5th floor, the weather became much better.
When the sky got clear, all those people were gone!

You might want to avoid going to museum on rainy day.

a few days later I went the Orsay Museum again, and that time I didn’t have get in the line.
Usually, there is not much people.

Examples are Hemingway and still it is popular place for writers.
