    Paris - City of Lights

    Paris is the city of lights, though whether that moniker refers to the intellectuals that have studied here from mediaeval times, the Enlightened thinkers of the 18th century or simply the street lights there is some debate. But, as with most things in Paris, their light obscures a dark past, so come with me as we head back to a different, darker Paris and discover her journey into the light.
