Paris is indeed uniquely one of its kind, with all her architecture standing proud gleefully pristine to awe the summer visitors. Strolling around the city, I discovered that she accommodates some of the most liberal people in Europe. You might call them weird or amusing, I simply just can't bestow a proper adjective to them. High tendency of you bumping into street performers with every stone throw away, some of these artistes go mobile on the metro bringing live entertainment right to you all in the comfort of your seat. Despite the saturation of street artistes, you can be sure of witnessing some of the best talents around in Europe. After all, Paris is renowned for her arts and culture.

During daylight, strolls in the gardens, museum visits and Avenue des Champs-Élysées shopping might be your best itinerary. In the night, Paris reveals a mesmerizing side. Find out how her historic nickname "City of Lights" is still applicable in the modern day context as the city proves itself to be a heaven of romance.
