Never been inside, not my cup of tea. I do remember watching from the other side of the Seine the station being converted back in the early 1980's.
How fortunate to have free entry to many major museums/gallerys in London. Apart from Sundays once a month Paris is pay. Not even a pensioners concession. One of the reasons I came back. |

Or go below and visit the Catacombes de Paris. |

I've been reading Diamond Geezer for about a year now and never commented. Now seems like the right time though. On a recent trip to Paris I was dragged around said cemetery for a whole three hours, looking for this famous person and that famous person by my travelling friend Mark. It certainly is an an interesting place, but you can have too much of a good thing!
I too am a fan of the Paris daytrip and am very much enjoying the DG take on things. |

Musee d'Orsay is a very enjoyable museum although I've missed out during a couple of Paris visits when it was closed for renovation or other reasons.

Lovely photos and brought back memories of the quite-by-chance stay I had in Paris with an ex the day Diana died. Just a few hours after her death I went through the same tunnel in a taxi and ended up in the bar her driver Jean Paul drank in. All a bit strange.
The 'paparazzi assasins' graffiti had already been sprayed at the Flame monument. |

Orson Welles' film of Kafka's book The Trial was filmed in Gare D'Orsay in the '60s when it was derelict. Apparently, he just came across it when looking for a set.
