Beauty Unmasked

Know this place? Looks familiar?

If you ever been to Paris, you must have set your footprint here. Perhaps is the time of the year we hardly see the crowds of Chinese tourists or let alone Japanese tourist flooding this emporium anymore.

With less crowd and human traffic, Galeries Lafayette becomes more beautiful to me. It is the first time (after many times) I stood still and enjoyed the dome and the interior of the building.

Don't you think this looks like in the grand theatre setting with privilege seats to watch the opera...

And the geometric beauty counters with the view from the top floor and you noticed there are hardly crowds anymore.... Both Galeries Lafayette and Printemps are opening extra long hours to attract more customers but the phenomenon of Chinese customers splashing Euros are definitely gone with the wind....
