First things first, let's bust that myth about Parisians being rude. In my experience, not the case at all, in fact quite the opposite. I found Parisians to be polite, friendly, smiley and willing to help. Parisians are well dressed, stylish and beautiful.
They walk through the streets relaxed, the pace of life is like slipping into a hot bath. The attitude is slow & relaxed throughout the day, morning cigarette, coffee, lunch, evening charcuterie.
The Eiffel Tower is something to behold in person. Grander then I ever thought possible. Impressive even in today's world of AI and megastructures, I can only imagine the impact it had on the people a 100 years ago. No wonder it's the world's cultural monument.
Paris is the cultural bosom of the world.
