Lingering over pain au chocolat in a sidewalk café, relaxing after a day of strolling along the Seine and marveling at icons like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe… the perfect Paris experience combines leisure and liveliness with enough time to savor both an exquisite meal and exhibits at the Louvre. Awaken your spirit at Notre Dame, bargain hunt at the Marché aux Puces de Montreuil or for goodies at the Marché Biologique Raspail, then cap it all off with a risqué show at the Moulin Rouge.

In the nice museum, raised by Henri Cartier-Bresson and his wife Martine Franck and daughter Mélanie in 2003, the museum hosts exhibitions by several photographers. We visited "Henri Cartier Bresson, Chine - 1948-1949 | 1958". The visit by HCB in 1948-1949 took place during and after prepations for take-over of power by the communist "People Liberation Army" led by Mao Zedong from the nationalist army ("Kwomintang, led by Chiang Kai-Sheck). The photos do not reflect actions in battle, but rather the movements, consequences and happenings in the streets. In 1958 Henri Cartier-Bresson returned, and was able to view restricted areas to examine the changes in society and industry while guided (watched) by representative of the CCP. Last two days, exhibition finishes on Febr 9th.
