Off To Paris

Paris, where Lestat got spotted by Magnus and made into a vampire in Anne Rice’s Vampire Lestat. An old city, the epitome of romanticism, of fashion and glamour, of elegance and the classical. The city were Christine Daae got entrapped in Eriks’s music and passion.

A relatively small city but is very much attracting visitors from all over the world.
