Louvre

This monument doesnt require any introduction, it is an amazing musuem made even famouse by the Da vinci code.

Have tried to capture it in day as well as night . wasnt able to get the same angle as the night shot is from the coach

Arc de Triomphe

One of the topmost visited monumnet in Paris after Louvre and Eiffel. it is war memorial similar to the one we have in India - India Gate. There similarities between the two monuments are really appealing.

More of Arc here

and more about India Gate here

Notredame

The Notredam Cathedral, I know about this Cathedral because of Disney. There is an excellant Animated movie 'the hunchback of Notredame'. Where the Hunchback helps the women he loves escape with Man she loves ( does it make sense :) )

Gustav Eiffel

The first impression of Eiffel from Boat cruise at river siene. Had to wait for some time to click the image so that I could capture the tower with the train passing by.

It is said that when the Eiffel was completed it was supposed to be the ugliest structure in Paris. Critics used to say that best way to enjoy Paris was to have a dinner in the restaurant on Eiffel as that is the only place from which the eiffel is not visible.

English Channel

The Land you see is the Dover ( Port on UK side). The ferry crosses over to France at Calais.

The Boat is huge and can transport 15 buses , 15 trucks, around 30 cars along with 3 restaurants, gaming area, shops and lounges

Windmill Village

Called as the windmill village by local tour operators the Village was really beautiful. The striking thing was everything was painted green.

Tram

The Trams of Amsterdam. It is really difficult to Walk in Amsterdam as you are not used to Trams. Somehow you always just save yourself getting runover by them

Brussels Skyline

Shot this in Capital of Europe ( yes there is a capital of europian union - Brussels)

The shot from this vantage point shows most of the brussels architecture.

The shot is the overview of old city centre
