ANNECY, FRANCE

ANNECY, FRANCE

Annecy is a small and beautiful medieval town located in the southeast part of France in the Rhone-Alpes. This town is known as the "Venice of France" because of all the canals flowing throughout the city a long with the romance that fills the air when walking down the roads of Annecy. There is nothing better than walking around this town surrounded by beautiful architecture, a view of the lake, while being looked down upon by the medieval castle above you. Make sure Annecy is on your next list of places to go. 

This is a picture that many people may recognize because it is one of the most photographed places in the country of France. This (in my opinion) is a perfect example of how Annecy combines both medieval times and modern times together as you have a beautiful medieval prison known as the La Vieille on the left side. If you want an amazing postcard this is the place to go. 

This is a Picture of the entrance to the Château d'Annecy. It was built sometime between the 13th and 16th century and served as the house of the Counts of Geneva. It has now been restored and serves as a museum to the city of Annecy. 

Of course you must make sure to hit the market in the old town of Annecy as they will have all the meat, cheese, fresh fruits, veggies etc... that you can imagine with some very friendly people. Get to know the community and build your relationships would wide. What can be better than eating while meeting new people?

Honestly I have no idea what this place is but I believe it was a bed and breakfast... It was located on a street leading up to the Château d'Annecy.




The beauty of Lac D' Annecy is truly breathtaking, by far the prettiest lake I have seen along with lake Geneva in Switzerland. You could enjoy a romantic picnic in the park while you take in the beauty of this wonderful creation.

After you have finished your romantic picnic looking at the lake it is time to get on the lake! Take a trip with Pont des Amours and get up close and personal with this jaw dropping lake! Im sure your date will love it as well. 

 After you have finished on the lake please please PLEASE take the time to stroll around Annecy and take in the beautiful buildings, calm canals, and reflect on life. To me this town has got to be on everyone's top destinations list.

 Everything in Annecy makes life seem so simple and peaceful as if there were worries to be thought of, life is good in Annecy.

Till next time good bye from one of the most amazing towns in the world. Good bye from Annecy, France. 

PARIS

Paris! What a beautiful city! This place is filled with love, passion, fashion, history, honey mooners, and plenty of sights to see. Thinking of Paris most people think of the Eiffel Tower and love, but there is much more to Paris that meets the eye, so lets go explore!

So in order for us to start this journey through Paris we first must take the Chunnel!

The Chunnel is a really cool experience because you get to see all different people of London and hopefully your a people person because you WILL be up close to a stranger

 This is a cool boat tour down the Seine river you can take while in London. I would definitely recommend it to anyone. On this tour you will get to see the Notre Dame Cathedral, the Eiffel Tower, the outside of the Louvre, where Napoleons tomb is located, and the beautiful bridges that Paris has to offer.

 The Notre Dame Cathedral is a spectacular sight to see! You may recognize it from the Disney movie The Hunchback of Notre Dame. For the record I am pretty sure I spotted him on one of the towers... Anyways this is another beautiful gothic church that was built hundreds of years ago. Inside you can take all the pictures you want and sit in the pews if you wish to pay your respects to the creator above. For an extra fee you can also climb to the top of the tower and see the hunchback.

The Louvre is one of if not the biggest museums in the world. I spent hours running through this building and still didn't get to see the entire thing. This is where the famous Mona Lisa is kept on display as well.

The Arc de Triomphe is a memorial for the ones lost in war. Here you can find the tomb of the unknown soldier. This giant memorial is surrounded by the largest roundabout in the world! This round about has 12 lanes all going into the same roundabout with no line dividers. Talk about crazy

This is what the Arc de Triomphe has a view of all day everyday from the top! This is the famous Champe de Elysees. This is where all the ladies dreams come true walking down this road with their arms full of fancy bags from all the big name stores. Talk about fashion.

This is a newer Catholic Church in Paris sitting on one of the only hills in Paris.

Right next to the Catholic church is the Artist square or Montmarte. Here you can find good eats while also getting your portrait painted by only the best that Paris has to offer.

 Paris has something for everyone. Whether you are an artist, historian, fashionista, or a die hard romantic Paris is the place for you.

Till next time, keep on travelin.
