Everybody takes pictures, everybody is a potential artist
This book is about showing the photos I took with my cell phone on my last trip to Paris. It does not seek to be a book about photography or perfection on the images, they are simply my photo trip through Paris, just like any tourist does.
They do not have any special order, but the one of my own taste.
Take a tour and enjoy my journey in Paris streets.

The Musée d’Orsay was originally built as a train station to bring visitors to the 1900 World’s Fair. Former Gare d’Orsay. The River Seine inherited its name from Sequana, the Celtic deity that inhabited its sacred source.

Mr Jean Duluc, a former investigator, founded Agence Duluc in 1913. La rue serpente formerly “Vieus serpenti” dates from 1180. Its name comes from a sing representing a serpent and not because it twisted.
Rue Danton, was only built between 1888 and 1895 and was named after the French revolutionary Danton from the start. The Tour d’Argent restaurant claims that it was founded in 1582, and that it was frequented by Henri IV, but it offers no documentation to support these or other claims about its history. The pressed duck, is the speciality. The restaurant raises its ducks on its own farm.

The passage was built at the behest of Marchoux, President of the Chamber of Notaries. Completed in 1826, the passage was originally called ‘Passage Marchoux,’ though this was swiftly changed to Vivienne. The street takes its name from the fact that it was the main street of the Faubourg Montmartre. Himself takes its name from its location: at the exit of the city, in the direction of Montmartre.
