If there’s one thing that I regret visiting Lyon (in the central east part of France), that would be – I only stayed for two nights. A city with so much to offer, why did I think of staying there in such a short time? I don’t know the answer

Basilica of Notre Dame de Fourvière Guards the City of Lyon
If Rio de Janeiro has the statue of Christ the Redeemer looking after the city, Lyon has Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière. Yes, it’s not a statue with open arms but a basilica sitting on top of a mountain. You can’t miss it – and every local knows where it
The Well-Manicured Gardens of Chateau de Versailles
The well-manicured gardens of Chateau de Versailles is so huge you need two to three hours to explore its entirety. Unless, of course, if you choose to ride on a golf cart around – for an additional fee. In fact, I never had the chance to explore half of it.
The Royal Chapel at Chateau de Versailles

The Golden Gate of the Palace of Versailles Displays Excess Opulence of French Royalty
There’s no doubt that the golden gate of the Palace of Versailles displays the excess opulence of French royalty. Boy, I was blown away the moment I got a closer look at the iron-wrought gate swathed in gold. Ok, it might not be real gold but it should be something
Moulin Rouge is Still Spinning Its Windmill
Moulin Rouge needs no introduction. Especially, if you’ve seen the award-winning movie of the same name, starring Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor. I’ve seen it three times because I used it in my class back then. The movie fascinated me, partly because my favorite color is red. LOL 😀 Ok, well,

Here are 15 photos of Annecy, a charming little town in France, near the border with Switzerland. These photos only show the side of the town along the canal. Don’t call it the “Little Venice of France” because it’s farther from the truth – few tourists. I think, one of
