PLACE DU CHÂTELET.....

Perfect day in Paris.....warm and the cafés were packed! This Place is a great point to discover endless history .....

Yes....well Napolean delighted in Egypt...
Place du Châtelet.....

So much for cake....built as a Royal Palace to later become a prison during the Reign of Terror. Lots of tragic ends here...including that of Queen Marie Antoinette. Recently cleaned to impress!

Two fantastic theatres opposite one another ....oh the joy of the supported arts!
