 Versailles by dr.firas
Too much vistors!
ha ha ha ha it is aweful, you'll have the impression that your turn will come to buy a ticket and enter the Chateau not less than after 3-4 hours
Check the picture I took, it is only the half of the people, even the camera has no diaphragme capable to catch it all LOL! Leave a Comment

Pay phones can be a real hassle. There only seem to be a few pay phones left in the city that accept coins, and all the rest require pre-paid calling cards. The problem with this was that the least expensive calling card was in fact very expensive and not worth the money considering we only needed to make a couple calls. So beware of this.

 France by dr.firas
but some points which could really help a first time user of the French Railways:
1-Some trips and destinations are by TGV always, and some by normal trains, it depends on the direction and city
2-Never forget to composte your Ticket before getting on the Train, as it could coast you a hard Tax of 40 Euro, almost a Price of a one way Trip
3-Never think of Discounts if you are older than 25 Years Old
4-If you want to buy a year ticket of discounts, it is good but you will be forced to travel only in Saturday nights and get back in the Sunday morning!
so please take notice, and Happy Traveling in France! Leave a Comment

as in israel,france has autonomous territories,where immigrants from africa and north africa have settlements ;do not go to theses territories,because the french police is not allowed to go there;if you have trouble,nobody will come to help you

 Mont Saint Michel by dr.firasLeave a Comment

France, especially Paris, is place full of thieves. Personally I wasn't a victim of a robbery but I saw robbers in action. Keep an eye on your hand bags, cameras, mobile phones and wallets.

First of all,I want to say that I adore France and Icould bear everything there,but...beware of going in Bretagne during August time without having booked any accomodation!
Every little hole is 'au complet',so the only solution is the hotel 1000 stars... Years ago I went to the Mont Saint-Michel,the most beatiful and charming paeninsula I had ever seen ,without any program.It was August and with my great surprise I realised that the hole region there was pulsing with an incredible multitude of people from everywhere.No chance to find a place to stay for the night.Just for the records,I made 35 calls to hotels,motels,b&b,guest rooms,pension and whatever offered a bed.Finally,after two and a half hours of frenetic search,when I was already in complete deperation ,a good French farmer shared my 'pain' and offered me a place inhis barn.What a relief ! The next day I had the most luxurious breakfast in country style with the family.
So, be careful of booking early in summer time,because good farmers are few...
