Fall Foliage in the Marais

Blog: I Prefer Paris - 3 November 2009

By: richard nahem

FALL-FOLIAGE-1 When I lived in New York I would have to go to either Central Park or upstate New York to see the fall foliage. Luckily in Paris I just had to walk down the street near my apartment in the Marais to see the glorious autumn colors. Riotous reds, vibrant yellows, and faded greens permeated the old stone walls on many of the 17th century hotel particuliers last week on a most perfect sunny, crisp day with temperatures hovering in the mid-50s.
