I came to Europe for the first time. I landed in Europe. First thing that I noticed is feel of cool breeze even in Metro stations and Train station. I came in the Month of August, Most pleasant time to travel in Europe. With chirping Birds, blossoming aromatic flowers, fresh Asparagus Spring is always beautiful in any part of the world.

I came to Europe for 7 days. Stayed in Munich for 4 days and Paris 3 days. Let me try to cover Paris in this Blog. I travelled along with my friend. His travel plans are always “More with Less” Concept. He always plans so many places for a single day and he makes sure that we don’t run out of places to see.

In my lifetime, this trip is very special. I can’t ask anything more from this trip: Love, affection, Excitement, Astonishing moments, walking, admiring, food and finally good sleep.

Firstly we took a night bus from Munich to Paris. We reached Paris early in the morning and we straight away went to hotel for check-in. The Hotel was very close Eiffel tower. At around midday, we left the room and we say the real face of Paris: Eiffel tower, Stunning Engineering Marvel of our time.
