From the Roof top of Le Printemps


Do you remember the photo I took two days ago, when I told you I would let you know later where I was when I took it? Well, I was on the roof top of le Printemps, the large department store located on boulevard Haussmann. It's a wonderful location where everybody can go - it's free - and even have a drink while looking at the stunning view - they also have a little café up there. It only takes 5 minutes to go up the 8th floors (with the elevator) and it's worth it day and night (providing there is no fog of course!!).

  2. It looks like a scene from a fairy tale. I am imagining next year's calendar: From the rooftops of Paris. Although, you have some great ones from ground level. Maybe alternate the photos?

  4. I do love viewing the city from this high perch... love the colors and that vibrant sunset. I have about 200 sunset photos taken from the rooftop of GL.

  7. Went up on the roof of Galeries Lafayette when I was there last month, but missed this one. Doubt I would have taken this good a picture if I had been there! It's a real stunner, Eric --

  10. Love the colors. Looks like some "tall" construction is still underway in the City of Light.
