Features: Paris life is vast like an ocean, and the author has only floated in a tiny corner of it for a brief moment. Naturally, the experiences are limited, and what is written is even less than what is seen. Whenever I recall the solemn, the picturesque Luxembourg Gardens, the magnificent Alexander III Bridge, the desolate and tranquil La Chapelle Cemetery, the richly historical Fontainebleau, the Arc de Triomphe celebrating the Chinese New Year with firecrackers, and the endless changes, it is even fewer.
Content of the book: On the second day after arriving in Paris, Mr. Madevi, the head of the Reception Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' Cultural and Technical Department, told us that in addition to the schedule we hoped to arrange, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would also host us for some travel and sightseeing, one of which was a visit to the castles on the Loire River. The Loire River is dotted with numerous castles, of which I had long heard. They are among France's oldest cultural relics, not only attracting French and tourists from all over the world with their beautiful scenery and ancient architecture but also sparking people's imagination with the rich history and legends they contain.
