Entrée royale de parking

Parking entrance Versailles Notre-Dame
On a walk just before Christmas, VDP noticed that the underground parking entrance at Notre-Dame market had been tampered with... in a rather nice and regal way, wouldn't you say? Zooming out to see this one from the antiques district! The arch is one of the covered market entrances. This allows VDP to take part in Monday Mural! Apologies for not visiting your blogs yesterday. It was a long day in France.

En se promenant juste avant Noël, VDP a remarqué que l'entrée du parking souterrain de la place du marché Notre-Dame avait été enjolivée, de manière assez royale, vous ne trouvez pas ? Zoom arrière comme si vous veniez du quartier de la Geôle (des antiquaires). L'arche est l'une des entrées du marché. Ceci permet à VDP de participer aux Fresques du Lundi ! Mille excuses, VDP n'a pas eu le loisir de visiter vos blogs hier, la journée fut longue en France.

It's quite an unusual addition, but a visually pleasing one!

I like it!

Jack said...

I think it is an elegant addition.

Do I get a horse escort to my car, that dude has a seriously cool hat. (I hope that was funny, I suspect you could use a little humor right about now.)

It's beautiful, Ciel! And perfect for Monday Murals.

That is amazingly beautiful! A work of art!

It was a long day indeed. I've been glued to France24 that has been streaming live video on the internet (since I'm still in the States). Anyway, thanks for providing a beautiful "time out" from the proceedings.

But I doubt there are equine sanitary facilities below.

Lovely mural. Like both your photographs of it. Followed the news of the demonstration in Paris yesterday. Viva La France.

Very fancy! Nothing but the best for the royals... :)

Our 'tamperings' are far less elegant than this!

That is a darn fine hat/headress!

Oh la! How magnificent, j'adore and even more the second shot through the arch, bliss! Merci beaucoup for sharing Ciel.

Yes, fancy.

France is our thoughts, Ciel!

Chuckled at BC's comment. I was thinking that too.

I think it's great. Makes you feel like you're entering a very important place.

Quite the elegant entrance. Perfect signage for an antiques district. Thanks, Ciel, for contributing to this week's Monday Mural. Hugs.

That gentelman must be surprised. He had much less problems to park.
