Another nice Japanese garden song is Milti hai zindagi mein mohabbat kabhi-kabhi...

And, I tag it "overrated" during busy times; but more important, in comparison to other splendid attractions available in Paris & the rest of France.<br />My argument's thrust was directed at Bollywood filmmakers; hopefully inspiring them to present foreign locales in more depth than casual tourists with advanced movie making technology.samirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15526113139239357402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4675470293987356346.post-17794264520207802562010-09-18T08:26:08.678-07:002010-09-18T08:26:08.678-07:00Hi Samir,
Where did you get this idea that" a...Hi Samir,<br />Where did you get this idea that" a significant number of French think [the Eiffel Tower] does not belong"? Even if indeed you can spend your lifetime in Paris without having ever climbed it, I think no Parisians nowadays would say the Tower doesn't belong to the capital. It used to be the case when it was built, back in 1879, I think, but not any more.<br /><br />You also say "I think it is slightly overrated, certainly standing in line and going up is to be avoided" - well, even if there are a lot of people wanting to go up, true, and at all times of the year, I think you'd find it a phenomenal experience. The big difference with other buildings is that you can actually watch yourself go up, you're outside all the time as it were. And once you're up there, on a fine day, it's just fantastic.<br />Apart from that, great blog, thanks!yveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12975451635895715233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4675470293987356346.post-87033305024429609402010-07-17T08:51:12.235-07:002010-07-17T08:51:12.235-07:00Ava :))
