MONTPARNASSE STATION PARIS

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

A very good initiative this summer: pianos in different place in the capital, here in Montparnasse station, for the public to play. On the piano is a notice saying "à vous de jouer" (your turn to play) and for the hour I was there waiting for a train there was always someone playing. It was very agreable and pleasant to listen to; I heard classical music, jazz and even children playing. What a good idea.

This is the ceiling (plafond) over the piano :) I found the shapes and patterns interesting.

and here is a view underneath (en-dessous).

The GALERIES LAFAYETTE was inaugurated in 1893 and its beautiful architecture is art nouveau from the Belle Epoque.There are two disadvantages in shopping here: everything is so expensive and it's so hot inside! But even if you dont shop, it's worth (cela vaut) a visit.
