paris door


Here is a photo of me in front of one of the gorgeous giant doors in Paris in the Marais district in 2016.  How spectacular!  You will find many of these glorious doors in this area.  Back in the day, they needed to be large enough to accommodate a horse & carriage entering into the mansion.  Even though we technically don't need these to be so large these days, I am so glad Paris protected these beauties.  

Some other photos of other doors from previous Paris trips for you below.  I like the photos with people best to demonstrate the scale of the door.  If you are heading to Paris, get a photo of yourself in front of one of these gorgeous giant doors!
