The Louvre Pyramid is the glass and metal structure located in the Cour Napoléon, the central courtyard of the Louvre Museum in Paris. It serves as the main entrance to the museum and is one of the most photographed contemporary architectural works in the world.

Because of the good relations with Egypt, Mehemet Ali, the viceroy of Egypt, presented them with the 3,000-year-old obelisk from Luxor. Its four sides depict the deeds of Ramesses II, dating back to the 13th century BC. King Louis-Philippe, in gratitude for the obelisk, presented Mehemet Ali with a clock, which now stands in the courtyard of the Mohammed Ali Mosque in Cairo. The 23-meter-high, 230-ton colossus was a significant undertaking to bring to France. This is why it is proudly inscribed on the obelisk's pedestal. And rightly so, since we are, of course, talking about 1836. It's a good thing, by the way, that French people generally can't read hieroglyphs, otherwise it would never have been erected. The deeds of Ramesses II, which are described on the Obelisk, in some cases concern his sexual acts and, according to ‘the needle’ (The Obelisk), these were not insignificant.

On the top floor (3rd floor), Eiffel set up a small private apartment. There he received, among others, Thomas Edison. The apartment still exists today and can be viewed through a window.

Since the end of the 19th century, the tip of the Eiffel Tower has risen into the Parisian sky. Now an undisputed national symbol of France, its permanent presence was not originally planned. At the start of the project, the usage rights attached to the construction contract were set at only 20 years. After that, the tower was supposed to be dismantled. Well, it's still standing today. Can we really imagine Paris without the Eiffel Tower?

Today we went on a beautiful hike near 🌞 in the Parisian forest. With an area of approximately 846 hectares in the west of the city, the Bois de Boulogne can be considered one of the two 'lungs' of Paris and the second largest green space in terms of area, after the Bois de Vincennes in the east. In October, many cyclamens bloom here along the hiking trail. A hike all the way around the lake with a visit to the island is a wonderful one. A free ferry ride is offered to get to the island. Highly recommended. We took a short break at LE CHALET DES ILES. Afterwards, we hiked a short distance on the island. Surprisingly, the heron was very friendly. I had the impression that it was expecting to be photographed 😄. It immediately struck a pose; I've never been so close to a heron before. There are always great photo opportunities along the hike, with small, babbling brooks in a very idyllic setting.

Bois de Boulogne Paris, France The two trees (240 cm) are a gift from Swedish industry to the Parisians and symbolize love and unity. This bronze statue was inaugurated in 1994. With this donation, the investor – a Swedish industrial holding company – and the Wallenberg family acknowledge the historical significance of relations between France and Sweden. At the tip of the small island in Lake Superior, this symbol of love has become a favorite place for Parisians to rest, row, and contemplate for bird lovers. There are great places to sit and relax. The sculpture is beautiful to behold and highly recommended 👍 to visit.

Another wonderful moment that simply takes you away 🥰. First, we took a break on a wonderful viewing bench and enjoyed the view of the Les Deux Arbes sculpture and the surrounding area 😍. It was hard for us to leave this place 😔. But the day is drawing to a close. This short hike in the Bois de Boulogne 💙 is absolutely spectacular and highly recommended.

The view from across the shore was spectacular, but to see it from here is incredible. To see so much romance in one statue is indescribably beautiful.
