Paris Virtual Soirée: Echoes of the Colonial Past (1/4)
Thursday, September 3rd at 5pm Eastern Time

Done the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower and Versailles? Looking for something different? Then I invite you to accompany me through a Vietnamese gateway and across a Khmer naga bridge and stumble upon a lost garden on the eastern outskirts of Paris. Filled with traces of France’s former colonial possessions, little-known to Parisians and even less to foreigners, this extraordinary place of memory is a nostalgic testimony to long-gone exhibitions visited by millions. Discover in an hour how Parisians once did a Tour of the World in a day.
