| Paris Photography. Life as a Parisian| Contemporary Photos of Paris | | Paris: The City More than 100 years ago |  Paris Photos features a modest collection of contemporary photography, capturing the romantic spirit of the city of Paris. Photos are available to view and purchase. Paris receives some 30 million foreign visitors each year; the Eiffel Tower alone claiming 6 million. The contemporary photography of Paris captures many of the famous landmarks known to tourists, from the Louvre and its famous pyramid entrance, to Notre Dame, alongside some of the lesser known places a little more off the beaten track.  | |  We have featured, around 200 old photos, the majority of which capture the World Fair (Exposition Universelle) held in Paris in 1900. Many of the constructions and pavilions no longer exist, having been built solely with the Paris exhibition in mind. However the Paris Fair did give rise to Orsay Museum, The Grand Palais, Petit Palais and Pont Alexandre III (one of Paris' most famous bridges). These antique photos are also available to purchase. |
Life in Paris | The Paris blog features the adventures and tribulations of an Englishman who has recently given up life in a little working class town bordering the Saddleworth Hills, and come to France. You can read about the ongoing experiences of how he tries to get to grips with the language, culture and people, along with observations of daily living in Paris.
