Paris Attraction; Eiffel Tower

A must visit tourism site in Paris: Eiffel Tower

I been there right after from Notre Dame Cathedral. There are so many people was queuing when we arrived because it was holiday. Luckily we bought the entry ticket online if not we might need to queue for at least 1 hour to get the ticket. 

Free from queuing for buy the ticket didn't means we are free from queuing for the elevator to went up to the tower. It was a tiring day as we queued a lot to went up as well for went down. To killed the queuing time of course we snap snap snap a lot of photos and below are few of them  ^^V

Finally arrived on the tower. Took a photo with my friend from Hungary: Miklós Világhy

Paris; Notre Dame Cathedral

Notre Dame Cathedral is the 1st tourism site that I visited in Paris. It is because on that day is exactly Easter and I wanted to have an Easter mass in a church. It is why my friend Sourosh suggested us to go to Notre Dame in early morning so that I can have my Easter Mass and my other friends can have their sight seeing inside or around the cathedral. Everybody Happy  ^^V

Aura by Swarovski; Spring Collection

I was in Champs Elysees street in Paris when I passed by this Swarovski outlet and my eyes just couldn't resist the sparkling of the Cristal on top the Aura Parfum's bottle displayed on the window.  I actually knew about this new Parfum from internet and from the sample given by a Parfum store in Germany and I'm interesting already because the smell is so fresh and it really great as now is spring. The only thing is I haven't seen the physical product before, and once I saw it I just felt in love :)

Air France: Stuttgart-Paris Route & Cost of transportation while stay in Paris

On 23April 2011 me and my friends were flying to Paris via Stuttgart airport with Air France. Surprisingly, The plane is small like Airasia. The different is the fare included 23kg baggage allowance and free snack & drink on board as well as free seat allocation.  The duration of our flight is about 1 hour 30 minutes.

With my travel Buddies.From left to right:
Me, Sundeep , Ai Lin, Akash, Helen and Iris.

Our Flight Information
Me & Miklos Vilaghy from Hungary. 
This is his 1st time traveling with plane as in Europe traveling is more common via train & bus. 

The snack on plane.









Above is list of transportation cost in Paris. Price depend on number of day and zone.We bought the 51,20 Euro/person ticket for a ticket valid in zone 1-6 for 5days because we are in Paris from 23 april to 27 April 2011. Believe me, this might look Super Expensive but this is the cheapest offer we can wish for. Transportation cost in Paris really expensive and the journey  from 1 place to another place is  very far. From the airport to my friend place in zone 4 take 2hours train journey. Unbelievable!!!! But when u ask people who stay in Paris, 45minutes train journey from 1 place to another is can be consider close already. Amazing.!!!

Recommended Restaurant in Prague; Czech Republic


The restaurant above serve typical Czech foods and it is located right in the city center. Very easy to find and this restaurant is quite big, completed with nice decoration and relaxing environtment. 

I visited this restaurant on my last day in Prague and I really happy I didn't missed it.

Below are the menus. Multiple language menu are available here. 
The Smoked Pork Knuckle 
5starts dish. Uniquely served and come with 4 type of sauces. It cost 490CZK approximately 21 Euro. It crispy outside but the meat inside is tender. I suggest you not to order this food for your self because the portion is big. You may share this with maximum another 2 persons.

Roast pork ribs in spicy marinade,corn on the cob 450CZK

Pig's foot in the little trough 250CZK

My favorite menu as well. The pig foot is so tender and the potato soup is smell so good and taste so yummy. The savoury dumpling also great. Much better then German's potatoes dumpling ^^V


Here are the dishes we ordered.
Me were enjoying the dish as well as the home drink serve in end of the dining. The drink is free. I did know what its that but the alcohol level is very high. typical Czech Drink hahaha...

This restaurant also have very professional and friendly crews. Even a knight!!! ^^V
