It was only a day trip into the City of Light, since I was staying in the town of Versailles. But, no matter how many times I have visited Paris, and actually lived there a short while, I am always mesmerized by its ambiance and historical beauty.
There happened to be a choir singing in Notre Dame Cathedral, which added to its splendor and glory.

I am planning to eat at Le Grand Colbert (they also have delicious, authentic chocolat chaud), to enjoy an apero at Le Meurice (original plan was Plaza Athenée, but it is closed for renovation), and bien sûr, to try this year’s Beaujolais Nouveau, after its official release tonight at one minute past midnight (the fourth jeudi (Thursday) in November).

Do you know why Paris is named the city of light? Answer/guess in the comment section.
A few on-the-run photos from my recent trip to/around Paris, to show the diversity found in such an extraordinarily beautiful city!
