It has been a long time since I went to Italy, the capital of art and fashion. I miss the architectural and cultural characteristics of European style. As a romantic city, France is the holy land for thousands of girls. As early as last August, I decided to book a ticket to Paris.

Maybe it's not the best weather to go to Paris on May Day. It's often sunny and rainy. But as Gigi's song goes, ~ just c'est la vie: a surprise arranged by God

It's always bad to protest, happy even if it's too late, even if it's not happy. This is life. It's interesting to have a little twists and turns. The scenery will soon pass. When there's time to criticize, say it gracefully. Welcome to every storm. This is life~

Itinerary: 4.25 Shanghai Paris mu553 (23:55-06:20 + 1) 4.28 Paris to Interlaken 18:15-23:53 4.30 Interlaken Amsterdam 20:00-8:56 (+ 1) 5.2 Amsterdam Paris (North Station) 19:18-22:41 5.3 Paris Shanghai mu554 (13:25-7:00 + 1)

The lost way reappears

Every time you travel, you can't avoid some unexpected embarrassment. This is not true, have not really set foot on the journey, met a bad heart. As soon as we got off the plane and turned on the mobile phone, we received a message from the owner of the Chinese family hotel. We were told that the temporary water pipe of the apartment near the Louvre was broken, which made it impossible to stay. The boss sent us a message to arrange for us to live in another apartment near the summer palace. But it will take at least 12 o'clock for us to check in, and because the Museum Pass and transportation card we reserved before are all provided by the owners of Chinese family hotels, it means that we have to drag heavy luggage around the street until 12 o'clock at noon before we start to visit the scenic spots. But the time we arrived at the airport was 6:30 in the morning. The time we spent in Paris was only three precious days, which would be a waste of half a day! No doubt it disrupted our plan and affected our schedule. My little friend has seen this kind of post in a forum before, so I would like to remind you again that you must consider it carefully before you pay the deposit to the Chinese family hotel. We ordered this room in October last year, but it was also arranged by the boss! I don't believe I'm so unlucky. I happened to run into a broken water pipe! If there is no wrong guess, it must be that the room was renewed by the previous resident, because the house price rose during May Day, and the price that the boss gave us was negotiated in October last year! What's more, the boss didn't answer my phone for more than 2 hours. At that time, it was raining and we were dragging our luggage in a strange street! I'm not familiar with my place of life, and I can't get in touch with the boss of accommodation. Really, we are on the verge of collapse, so we have to call the embassy! At about 10 o'clock, I finally got in touch with my boss. She said that we should wait in the subway station of the Louvre for someone to meet us (the so-called receptionist is a Chinese tour guide from a travel agency). This man's attitude is very bad, and he turns back and omits 30000 words in the middle! Finally, we put down our luggage at 13 o'clock, got the pass and went to the first stop of our trip, the Louvre.

Meet the Louvre with dark clouds~

The weather in Paris is really confusing. It's sunny and rainy. The general rule is cloudy in the early morning, and the clouds begin to dissipate after noon. It's going to clear up in the evening, and the sun comes out to stand guard until 8-9 p.m., and the day is still bright!

On the first day, we walked to the pyramid of the Louvre with umbrellas. The gloomy scene was totally different from what I had imagined before. Maybe it was also because of the temporary change of accommodation, our mood was down, and we had no interest in taking photos. So we took a long line with the crowd and entered the Louvre. It's necessary to pay for renting the Louvre's commentator. In the spirit of poor travel, I prepared the PDF of the Louvre's commentator to be downloaded to my mobile phone for a visit. Due to the temporary renovation, we failed to see the goddess of victory in the three treasures of the town hall.

Walking out of the Louvre and along the Champs Elysees street, we came all the way to the Arc de Triomphe (we tasted macarone in Laduree, a century old shop in the middle of the journey. I don't think the taste is as amazing as the legend). When I came to the Arc de Triomphe, the sky suddenly cleared up. When I looked back, I saw a half rainbow. It was God's compensation for the bad weather before! It's more than 19 o'clock now when you climb the top of the Arc de Triomphe with a pass ticket, look at the Eiffel Tower in the distance and overlook the pentagram square

Gorgeous encounter with the Eiffel Tower~

It is said that the Eiffel Tower with the whole lighting is the most beautiful! Sure enough, when the long-standing big iron tower really stood in front of me, I was really shocked! How charming is this amazing building? It can make so many people come all the way to Paris just to see him? I'm afraid it's hard to describe in words. You have to come to the scene to feel it.

The luxury and atmosphere of Versailles~

Far away from the city, the palace of Versailles is the grand palace built by Louis XIV in his heyday. Its magnificence and luxury are beyond your imagination. In addition to visiting various palaces and works of art, the French style Royal Garden in front of the main palace is worth mentioning. The towering trees are as high as the city gate, neatly arranged together and surrounded like a labyrinth. There is also a big fountain and pool in the center. If people are tired of walking, they can rest nearby. The landlord heard that the sightseeing train just took you for a ride and would not let you off for sightseeing, so he didn't take it. But on the way, I found that I was exhausted, so I went back the same way, out of Versailles, back to downtown Paris.

There's a deal with Notre Dame's bell tower freak~

Paris left me with the biggest impression is to line up everywhere... Notre Dame of Paris is no exception, around Notre Dame in a circle, it took about an hour, and finally reached the top. But the summit time is limited to five minutes. The clock tower freak holds his cheek and overlooks the miniature of Paris, as if thinking about something?

His archetype is Quasimodo, the bell ringer of Notre Dame de Paris, the embodiment of "good" in Hugo's ideal, and the figure created by Hugo according to the principle of beauty and ugliness. His appearance is ugly - he has the most ugly appearance: Geometric face, tetrahedral nose, horseshoe shaped mouth, uneven teeth, one eye, deafness, hunchback... It seems that God has brought all the misfortunes to him and made him ridiculed, but his inner character is in sharp contrast with his appearance. He is noble in heart, a man full of justice and emotion. His love for Esmeralda is a kind of tenderness mixed with gratitude, sympathy and respect, a kind of selfless, eternal, noble and simple love, showing a noble image of soul beauty.

Episode: when you go out, the most troublesome thing is to order. Because the English menu is not like the domestic ones, which can order meals by looking at pictures. There are no pictures on it, but only dense English. The landlord chose a beef carpaccio (with salad) with a shallow amount of English words. I would like to say that beef is served with salad, which should not be wrong. Who would like to when the waiter will be a plate of raw beef slices, placed in front of me, I immediately silly eyes. I don't refuse salmon or anything. It's too heavy. I just mash it into a ball and swallow it. The waiter asked, "are you enjoying it?" I can only harden my head and say, "it's OK." I spent 100 yuan to eat a few pieces of vegetables and raw beef slices, which is painful for me!

Night tour of Seine River~

Seine River is a grand canal that flows through Xidai island. People often regard it as a watershed between the left and right banks. On the left bank, petty bourgeoisie is romantic; On the right bank, there are many tall buildings with a strong modern commercial atmosphere.

There are different grades of cruises on the Seine River at night. Luxury boats have bands playing music and can enjoy the famous French feast of snails and foie gras; The ordinary type has no food and beverage, and is divided into upper and lower layers. The upper layer is open and the lower layer is closed, but the vision is very good. The cruise ship starts from the wharf, runs along one bank of the Seine River, turns back to Xidai Island, and runs along the other bank to return to the wharf. The commentary is divided into English, French, Japanese, Chinese and Korean. Along the coast, you can also see a lot of ship restaurants and bars, enjoying the beautiful scenery on both sides of the Strait.

Last day in Paris 追剧的一天~

Take the subway to abbesses station. There is a blue love wall in a small park on the hillside. It is made up of 511 dark blue rectangular tiles, which are filled with the same sentence "I love you" in 311 languages and handwriting. Three vertical Chinese characters can be found on the far left side of the wall, but the character "love" is traditional.

Leaving the wall of love, we come to the first stop - Moulin Rouge. Moulin Rouge is actually a theater, located in a street of sex goods. There is a big red windmill on the top of the building, which is very eye-catching. After taking a few photos of tourists at the door, I went to the double windmill cafe where the heroine of the movie "angel loves beauty" works and ordered a cherry mocha. It's my favorite thick taste! Next to the key sat a very British style man's paper (slightly fat). I also took a sneak picture of him when I borrowed it for coffee~

Following the steps of "up to the sky 2", I came to the Sacred Heart Cathedral in Montmartre heights. The terrain here is high. You can see the miniature of Paris here. Many couples come here, do nothing, just sit quietly on the steps, overlooking the distance of Paris miniature, chat, it is very comfortable, enjoy.

The episode of catching up with the train: the landlord nodded his back and was about to buy a bottle of water in the drinking machine of the subway station with coins. Who wanted to encounter that the coins could not be recognized, and then the coins returned were stuck in the coin return slot... The landlord had one tendon, so he put in another one, but was still returned, and continued the card... The landlord insisted on not believing in evil, and took out a golden euro and put it in, fuck!!! It's still stuck in the refund slot! This is the legendary drink cold water also plug teeth? The landlord, regardless of the lady's image, kicked the machine a few feet, hoping to be withdrawn... But there was still no movement... At this time, the little friend looked at his watch and asked what time our train was. Oh, I'll go! We have 15 minutes to go, but we still have a subway! So hurry on the road, pinching the stopwatch countdown. Finally, I caught the train to Switzerland.

On Security: Public Security in Paris has always been criticized. In recent years, the air raid has aggravated the fear of the Chinese people. However, these are not important and have not stopped me from yearning for the romantic city. However, I still have to believe the rumors. I have heard too many stories about thieves in Paris, and there is no guarantee for personal property, There is also the difference in foreign languages, resulting in eating a few secondary beef, really worried about indigestion, and in foreign countries, medical costs are still so expensive. Fortunately, I bought Allianz Schengen global assurance before http://t.cn/RcTyBx9 It not only meets the visa requirements of Schengen country, but also has medical security of 300000 yuan and emergency rescue. It can also eliminate my worry about the security problems in France. This one includes the loss of personal belongings and bank card swipe, as well as the common baggage change, flight delay and other security. On the whole, the cost performance is quite high! It's more cost-effective to get coupons ranging from 5-50 yuan on the subscription number of "Daren micro League"!

About railways between European countries: link to French railway website: http://en.voyages-sncf.com/en/

Although there is a ticketing website of China's agent of eurorail in China, the price is higher than that of the official websites of European countries, the exchange rate is not good, and there is a handling charge of 4 euro per person per time. I think this money can be saved completely. In fact, booking tickets on the official website is not complicated. The English you can see on the operation interface is generally understandable.

As you take more routes to France, Switzerland, Italy and Holland, and I have been to Italy in the Spring Festival of 2013, so this time I only take the three countries of France, Switzerland and Holland, and there are few posts to refer to.

The Dutch railway official website is the most disgusting. The ticket collection method is limited to mail, and the ticket can only be sent to the local area of the country, so we give up.

France can buy tickets as early as three months in advance ~ the time difference between China and France is 6-7 hours, so if you want to grab a small number of children's shoes with special tickets, try to brush them from 7 a.m. (that is, 0:00 local time in France), so you are more likely to grab tickets!

The charging unit of Swiss railway official website is Swiss franc, and it can book tickets half a year in advance, which is earlier than that of other countries! Finally, I ordered it on the official website of Swiss railway. Note: the official website only allows IE browser, so you'd better use IE browser to operate at the beginning, so as not to be told that you have to do it all over again when you get to the last step

PS: since the end of January 2014, FRA has been able to directly purchase and send e-tickets on its official website to its mailbox for self printing. So it's very convenient to book.

About purchasing agent:

All say no! I don't know when it has been my duty to travel and help my friends around to buy cosmetics and bags... To be honest, I'm not going to help you buy air tickets to travel. When you go out, you already have a lot of miscellaneous luggage to load. Don't think I'm selfish and not righteous enough. You should put yourself in other people's shoes and compare your heart with mine. Around so many colleagues and friends, you can, she can, suitcase is not a dream's pocket, is a bottomless hole! You are relaxed. In a simple word, can you imagine the embarrassment when you are alone abroad, dragging heavy luggage? What's more, now Taobao is omnipotent, what can't buy? If you are afraid to buy fake goods, find a seller who can buy fake goods all over the world and pay 10 for each fake. It's really hard for me to understand those people who say "I envy you" and "you're rich" and so on, and tell you to help buy a more than 2W bag. This expense far exceeds the cost of my trip! Yes, it's the purchasing fee saved for you. Who will bear the excess luggage fee for me?!

Some people say that travel is to jump out of their usual life circle, to see the outside world, to experience the different customs. But time has changed and travel has changed. It has become a capital for you and me to show off and a way to buy on behalf of others. The journey I yearn for is to walk with my feet, to observe with my eyes, to experience with my heart and to think with my mind, rather than just shopping.

Look at the picture and talk about the travel notes~

Come up with a shadow. The weather suck. The drizzle is cloudy.

But it doesn't dampen my enthusiasm for taking selfie...
