Paris, a city where unfamiliar excitement lingers.

From the moment I left the airport and headed into the city on my first day in Paris, everything was filled with excitement. Even the buildings passing by the window and the street signs seemed beautiful. I couldn't help but think, 'I should have come here sooner.'

The Eiffel Tower was not just a simple landmark. It was overwhelming even from afar, and as I got closer, its intricate beauty became even more apparent. At night, when the lights twinkle every hour, the moment when countless people hold their breath and gaze at it together felt truly magical.

The Louvre Museum and the Musée d'Orsay were spaces that could move anyone, even those not particularly interested in art. It wasn't just about looking at paintings; each piece seemed to tell a story of time, emotion, and humanity. There was never a dull moment.

From the Champs-Élysées and the Arc de Triomphe to Montmartre Hill and the Sacré-Cœur Basilica, and even the Seine River cruises—each tourist spot was so famous that I worried it might be overrated. But once I visited, I immediately understood why they were so renowned. They were dazzling but not excessive, tranquil but never boring.

Paris is a city that makes every day feel like the thrill of a first love, and by the last day, you find yourself promising to return.
