Parisian Graffiti – Part Trois

Like I said, no shortage of interesting graffiti.  Maybe I should go over and start a Parisian Graffiti walking tour?

Tell me, do you find graffiti a nuisance?  Attractive?  Interesting?  Scary?  I found most of the art to be innocent and interesting in Paris.  There was relatively little that was obscene or gang related.  So, for the most part I enjoyed it unless it was over top something I felt had a lot of history that was ruined.  In many ways it provided interest to areas that were relatively uninteresting.  In other places, it seemed to just be everywhere and if I lived there I imagine I would get tired of it.  What do you think?

Parisian Graffiti – Part Deux

There is actually so much interesting graffiti in Paris I quit photographing it and just focused on the art I thought was different, or weird, or interesting in some way.  I couldn’t believe how great some of the art was, how prolific it was, and how it almost seemed to be encouraged in the right locations.

Where is the best graffiti you have seen?  Feel free to link a graffiti post of yours to this one if you would like.  Sharing is caring!  😉

Paris -Doors part Trois

I hope you enjoy a nice mix of interesting doors from Paris.  Doors that go nowhere, covered passage doors, old doors, and door knockers.  Enjoy.

How cool is this door? It was actually part of a building at once time which has long since been torn down. The French people chose to keep the door. It is just standing there all by itself. I LOVE that.

Surely door knockers can be considered?

Paris – Doors Part Deux

There are so many parts of traveling I enjoy.  Architecture is one of them.  And Doors make a big impact on architecture.  France makes a solid effort at keeping their doors real for sure.

I mean seriously?  Look at this door.  It’s perfect in color, shape, ivy, knob, button…I need to know who lives here.  😉

Not your typical french style door.

Makes you wanna know what’s behind it doesn’t it?

I think a gate can count as a door when there are flowers this pretty behind it.

I don’t even remember where I saw this door but I love everything about it.

Paris – Doors (Notre Dame)

It’s Thursday!  I have been looking forward to this all week.

Below are a few of my favorite doors from my recent trip to Paris.  There are too many to share in one post so I will likely provide more in coming weeks.  I hope you enjoy.  And as always, I come home from a trip like this wanting to replace the door on my own house…

Door outside the Notre Dame. This door has actually made an appearance on my blog once before. But, look at it! It is magnificent.
