Since you left so many positive comments and glowing reviews of my first Paris Rooftop Views blog from last month, I am bringing you a new series today.
Today I present a potpourri. First are the views from the fabulous suites at the Hôtel Barrière Le Fouquet's Paris, just off the Champs Elysées, that I had the privilege of viewing last month on a tour of the gorgeous hotel suites. The views were from the top floors of the hotel which faced north on to the Champs Elysees and beyond and west with views of the Arc de Triomphe. I also got some cool shots from the oval windows decorating the suites.
The second series is from the top floor of the newly reopened, La Samaritaine department store which had views of the glorious flying buttresses and architecture of the 15th century gothic church.
Last but not least, are the views from a more obscure place. Institut du Monde Arabe is a museum dedicated to the culture and art of the various Arab nations and is situated on the Seine River in the fifth arrondissement by the Pont de Sully. The open rooftop on the ninth floor has terrific views, facing north and west, of Notre Dame, the Seine, and the rooftops of the Ile Saint Louis.
