[ June, 2013 ] This time in Paris I could not enjoy shopping, so I went to a park and sat to watch people.
This is the famous Tuileries Garden.
This was created originally as a garden of the Tuileries Palace in the mid-16th century.
The queen at that time made it like a garden in Florence in Italy where she was from.
But 100 years later, a famous gardener, Andre Le Notre changed it to a French style garden.
The palace itself was destroyed at the time of Paris Commune in 1871.
10 days after the day I spent some time there, I flew over Paris by an aeroplane.
It was a fine day and I could see Paris clearly.
I could even recognise the fountain where I sat for a while.
