(Last Update: 07.06.2025) Petit Palais, which was built as a fair and exhibition palace in 1900, like its older brother, the Grand Palais, gives the impression that it was used as a palace in history, at first glance and of course due to its name.

(Last Update: 07.06.2025) When I first saw the Grand Palais (Gran Pale or Gğan Pale), which means "Great Palace", I remember thinking to myself, "What a beautiful place people used to live in." I was amazed by the magnificence of the building and how it rose with all its grandeur right in the middle of the city, and I was very impressed by its giant steel-glass roof as much as its exterior. However, later on, this building

(Last Update: 21.10.2025) Paris is a magnificent city full of hundreds of beautiful museums. It is already very difficult to see all of these museums at once, but when you make a list of what you want to see, you will be faced with a very large budget.

(Last Update: 21.10.2025) Along with the Tuileries Garden, one of the largest parks in the city center of Paris is the Luxembourg Garden... This magnificent park is located in the 6th arrondissement of the city and is very close to the Panthéon, in other words Saint Germain. We can describe it as the upper part of the Boulevard and Saint Michel. Although the park has several gates, there are people who like to walk downhill rather than uphill.

Madeleine Church – Eglise de la Madeleine

January 20, 2014 7 reviews

(Last Update: 05.06.2025) For me, another church in Paris that is at least as valuable as Notre Dame Cathedral and Sacré Coeur Basilica is the Madeleine Church. This building reminds us of the famous Acropolis in Athens due to its architectural style. Madeleine, whose construction started in 1763 and opened in 1842, is a very flamboyant building with its magnificent columns all around, its triangular pedimented roof layout, its location in the middle of the square and its interior design.
