       The Eiffel Tower flashing light show is an exotic sight at Paris.  As darkness fell, the whole city is ablaze with lights. No doubt, the light from Eiffel Tower is the brightest one. The blinking light brings vitality for the dark sky in Paris. While hundreds of people are standing on the ground in front of the tower to admire the attractive light, all of the annoyance has been blocked out of their mind. Correct!

     The flashing light show lasts about five minutes. After  enjoying this show, you might choose to walk along Seine River in the gentle breeze. Throughout the journey, you will be able to see different types of boats coming and going. Some of them disappear from your view in silence, while some disappear with rumble. During this time, you can also visit some of the tourist spots. Notre Dame Cathedral is one of the examples. By looking at the building outside, you image and recollect its rich history regarding to Catholicism as well as France. It's an outstanding example of Gothic architecture.

      Visiting a traditional street full of various bars and featured restaurants is another good choice. There're lots of local people sitting in different restaurants or bars chatting with their friends to spend the night. Featured restaurants include seafood in French style, grilled chicken and roast sucking pig. A bar that still fresh in my memory is the one in which women can get drinks or wine for free if they leave their bras finally. I was indeed amazed at its interesting operating method. Below is the photo with the boss of this bar. If you want to know Paris, the traditional street is your must-go place since people are the soul of a city. Lots of local people would go there to spend their night especially during weekends. 

      Night in Paris is the symbol of romance and vitality, which you  cannot miss. Come and touch Paris especially its night whenever you have time, you would be attracted by its passion and richness of the culture and life.
