In Part 3 of this video series about traveling the waterways of France on a tug boat, Richard Goodwin first stops at the Place de la Bastille. This is the traditional venue for all Parisian street protests ever since the storming of the notorious Bastille Prison which marked the beginning of the French Revolution. Whilst we were there the famous Tour de France rode past on the final stage of their race around France. Then we visit the Faubourg St. Antoine which is the centre of the French furniture business. Then we come to one of the most amazing timber stores in the world where they have amongst other logs some mahogany from Cuba which arrived before the French Revolution in 1789. We see how they make veneers here. We then see veneering in some of the many workshops of the area and also many of the brass fittings and decorations they make to decorate their furniture. We then see my niece Elisabeth try on some fancy jewellery. My next visit in this extraordinary district was to a man who restored marble statues to their former glory. He also showed us a table top he was making with stones from all over the world, from South Africa and Oregon. One of the most famous French sons of the late 19th. century was Frou Frou, literally the sound of a woman’s skirt as she walked along.

Then on to the cheapest food market in Paris, the A … Paris Guide –

As famous for its reputed hunchback as it is for it’s stunning architecture the Notre Dame Cathedral is incredible in its grandeur and its truly spectacular design. Construction began in the mid-12th century and it took almost 200 years to complete the ‘initial’ design. However work continued in the ensuing centuries with further elements added for both aesthetic and structural reasons – most notably the amazing flying buttresses added to stop the outer walls from collapsing as the building grew in size. Every part of Notre Dame is amazing and it’s not until you witness it in person that you can truly grasp its vast dimensions and intricate detail. Paris Guide –
