The symbol of Paris is the Eiffel Tower, built in 1889. As the Parisians are joking today: “Our lady has recently become somewhat stout.” This is due to the fact that of the numerous cafes and souvenir shops located on its floors, it exceeded its total allowable weight.

Attractions in Paris a great many. And they all deserve their attention and, of course, a personal visit (it’s better to see it once!). Everyone who comes here for the first time will seek to inspect “everything” and go “everywhere.”

It is pleasant to sit in cozy restaurants or street cafes, where in front of you every minute, like in a theater, quite real scenes are played. It is also interesting to just wander through the streets and squares of the city and enjoy its unique atmosphere.

I can`t say that I am a frequent train commuter as I find trains rather slow and uncomfortable. However, my attitude towards the European trains has changed dramatically after my last summer train journey.

Last summer I went to France just to see the country. After a few days in Paris, I got bored and decided not to lose an opportunity to visit some other European capitals. Berlin was the most desirable place to visit, so I decided to go there. The only problem was which way of traveling to take, but finally I decided to travel by train to Munich as it was twice as cheap as by plane. So, my trip began.

Firstof all, I had to find out which railway station I want for Germany, but it's an easy task. As soon as I arrived at `Gare du Nord` railway station hall, I went to the information office to inquire about the timetable. After I`d chosen the train, I had to book a ticket for this train.

I was afraid of speaking French as I`m not very good at it and was really pleased to find bilingual ticket offices, where ticket clerks could speak English. As I didn`t want to return to Paris, so I took a Day Second Class Single to Berlin. It was an inter-city express, but I had to change in Cologne as it wasn`t a through train. I had to hurry up, my train left in a quarter of an hour, but the platform was quite a good way from the ticket office.

As soon as I found my car, ticket inspector checked my ticket and showed me my seat. By the way, the platform was on a level with the floor of the carriage, so it was easy to get on the train. I was surprised by the fact that there were no compartments at all, just the rows of seats, which were really comfortable. I put my suitcase to the luggage rack took my seat.

The train started exactly on time. Never will I forget the train gaining speed! It was fantastic! The average speed was approximately 210 km per hour! But what I liked most was the service. Commuters didn`t have to go to a dining-car because tea and coffee were served by the waiters.

I didn`t notice the time and I was in Cologne within 2 hours. Surprisingly, but I wasn`t tired, but was eager to continue my train journey.

To conclude, I can say that the European train service differs greatly from the Russian one, and I had an unforgettable travel experience.

Berlin was the main destination, so I decided to go there. The only problem was the choice of transport, but in the end I decided to take the train to Munich, as it was cheaper than flying. So my journey has begun!

I was afraid to speak French because I don't speak it very well. But when I approached the cashier, I was pleasantly surprised that the cashier was bilingual and the cashier was fluent in English. I didn't want to go back to Paris, so I took a second class one way ticket to Berlin. The train was an intercity express, but I had to change trains in Cologne. I had to hurry, because half an hour was left before the train left, and the platform was quite far from the ticket office.

As soon as I found my carriage, the conductor checked my ticket and showed me my seat. In addition, the platform was level with the carriage, so it was easy to get on the train. I was surprised that there were no compartments in the carriage, only rows of seats, which were very comfortable. I put the suitcase on the luggage rack and sat down in my seat.

The train left on time. I will never forget how he picked up speed! It was amazing! The average speed was 210 km/h! But most of all I liked the service! Passengers didn't have to go to the dining car because the waiters served tea and coffee.

I did not notice how the time flew by, and after 2 hours I was in Cologne. Surprisingly, I was not tired at all, but I felt the strength to continue the journey!

In conclusion, I would like to say that the European railway service is significantly different from the Russian one, and thanks to this, I got an unforgettable experience!

About Paris

I would like to tell you about the wonderful city of Paris. I have never been there, but I already love this city. This is a very beautiful city.

I can just say that Paris should not be confused with anything. To be more precise, I think the main feature of this city is its streets. Paris is the capital city of France. It is located on the River Seine, in the north of the country, at the heart of the Île-de-France region. About 99% of the people in France speak French. French is a very widespread language. There are at least 29 countries all over the world in which French is spoken. I would like to visit the famous lavender fields in France. In the Lumberton and the Rhone Valley lavender begins to bloom mid June. The Valensole plateau and Drome Provencal begin to get covered with lavender around the beginning of July. By the way, lavender is important in medicine. Lavender can heal insect bites and burns. It can soothe headaches and cure acne. Lavender can be used as an air freshener. The essential oil is made from lavender. It was used during World War I to disinfect wards because the essential oil has antiseptic properties. Appositely, some chefs use flowers of lavender for cooking. Definitely, I want to taste French cuisine because it is one of the best in Europe. Here is some typical French food: baguette, Croquet Monsieur, escargots, Ratatouille… France is the leading country in the fashion industry. French fashion brands such as Chanel, Dior, Hermes, and Louis Vuitton were based in Paris. I think everyone who visits Paris buys something in French fashion stores. France is an amazing country. France is a wonderful country, and we can talk about it for very long, but it is better to go there and see everything with your own eyes.
