Take a look at the new Hôtel Dame des Arts in Paris.
Wowza. Not only can you get that signature view from some of the rooms of Paris rooftops, the rooms are without the view, stunning. And that last shot? That's a view from the rooftop bar. Stunning.

Day 4 : modern day
Oups, double post for Sanji with his angry Ratatouille... But these two fanarts are designed to work together. After drawing the Parkour Sanji, I really wanted to draw entierly his Octopus tattoo.
Sanji lives in Paris, he works for Le Jules Verne (it's on his t-shirt "LJV"), a very expensive and high-standing restaurant situated on the second floor of the Eiffel Tower. During his free time he enjoys doing Parkour on Paris rooftops (and every kind of extreme sports with his bf Zoro -they are adrenaline addict). He lives in a little room where he occasionally has arguments with a hot tempered rat... (Btw, I'm part of the croissant au chocolat team).

This is so awesome. When the sun fades behind the rooftops, photographer Alan Cornu packs up his gear, puts on his boots and heads to the nearest ladder that will lead him to the most secret views of Paris. Up there is where he does his magic, photographing the rooftop view of the city.
It’s difficult to get the shot you’re trying to achieve at night.
The beauty of Paris is overwhelming whether you’re walking its streets or looking down at it from above, but not a lot of us get to see it from above.
One must wonder how he skips across these rooftops.
He lived in an attic room as a student in the 80s.
From time to time, we’re even treated to surreptitious views through an open window.
He addresses not only famous monuments, but also the iconic images of the Parisian skyline.
Charming interior courtyards, chimney pipes, tiny skylights and gently sloping zinc rooftops — iconic images of Paris.
“I wanted to set my story at night, when the city, like a big animal that ran all day long, gets her breath back and finds its intimacy. The artificial lights structure the space and help me compose my images,” explained Alan.
Gargoyles.
“When I take pictures, I put myself in a contemplative state which makes me look at things differently. And, besides composition, I’m focused in details, matters, and light,” said Alan.
