As a French living in France, I couldn't agree more. Most people living in other regions of France dislike Paris. There are plenty of beautiful places to visit in France aside Paris. Go visit the Mount Saint Michael for instance. Breathtaking!
@donk8105yeah we just do that everyday everytime, that's right. One time a week is my usual routine, maybe I should do more I dont know. Sounds perfectly plausible to be constantly on strike. Not that there were really particular reasons that pushed the trash collectors to go that far a few weeks ago. It's just what we do everytime indeed
I went not even a month ago, it is not as dirty as the pictures show. Maybe that’s in certain places, but I spent two weeks there and did not see anything like that. It was my dream trip and I loved every second of it
As french person who lives in Paris this is completely false This was filmed during the demonstrations and the « grève » and at that time the garbage collectors refused to work so that’s why it looks like it’s dirty. But generally it’s not this way 😊
I just came back from Paris. Beautiful City, clean, friendly, and the architecture was amazing. I didn't see any of this rubbish anywhere, it was really clean. This is click bait
I’ve been in Paris so so many times it’s a stunning city. I am in love with Paris. Like you said those images were when they weren’t cleaning the rubbish away. Always found Paris to be clean in the city and never got a smell of urine . I enjoy every time I visit
This is very misleading. I just went to Paris last year and it was nothing like this. The reason it's so dirty now is because of strikes. If the strikes are a problem for you that's fine but don't say "Never go to Paris"

THANK YOU! ive been twice and going a third time, although its a beautiful city with amazing sites and muesuems, it literally smells like vape piss and sewer everywhere u go and the locals are so rude to tourists. but idk why people would go to Paris when theres a protest right now
As someone who lives in Vancouver Canada, I can see why they're mean to tourists. Americans are disgusting and behave like children. So obviously American tourists will not be treated with respect
The locals are also really rude. No matter how nice I tried to be bc I couldn’t speak French they’d turn their nose up at me and wouldn’t help me out. Of course not all of them were like that but most really were
We sometimes went to Italy during vacation and our camping neighbor said, that they prefer to go to Italy because Italian people are so much nicer than french people.
@@user-yj7ve5zv9n No. They tend to flat out loathe Americans. When I was in high school taking French, we had a trip to France available to us. I was far too poor to go, but I still had to sit through the lectures about going. My friend Valerie actually went. When she came back, she told me how she had to tell everyone she was Canadian after an incident where someone spit in her food for being American. So if you're American, just say youre Canadian and youll be given basic respect. Xenophobes suck, but theyre out there.
when i went to paris it was the best vacation i’ve ever taken- the amount of tourist attractions like going up the eiffel tower and going to the louvre were so time consuming and fun, my whole month trip there went so fast.
Those videos with trash everywhere are not a usual thing, plus you kinda forgot how Paris is full of museums and culture + cute places where you can walk in nature
@@glockenspiel-ti1msIt isn’t even bad in tourist areas. This garbage is from time of strikes and protest when sanitation workers also went on strike due to the raising of pension age. This is all clickbait . Paris is a thousand times more beautiful and full of history and culture than an U.S. city, including New York, which wants to compare it to. To be clear, I know both American and European cities. I am American born with European parents, so am also European.
@@Joe-qm4yvwell, for some things, you just have to take the bullet. I am personally fond of every form of art, and thus, Paris is a city I want to visit
Ok, i went to paris just a few months ago. The person who made this video is really dramatizing what its like. First off, its a city, ofc theres gonna be trash. But, they make it out to seem like its everywhere, its not lol. Also, the thing about having nothing to do, theres so much to do. You can visit the palace of Versailles, go to the really famous art muesum, theres also a lot of really cute bookstores to visit. Paris is definitely not really a trip for thrill seekers, but theres is a lot to do then just visiting the effiel tower. Theres a lot more to do, i was just lazy and didnt list them off.
Well the palace of Versailles is not in Paris, it is in the city of Versailles so you would have to leave Paris to see it. Maybe you're talking about the Louvre. However, it is true that there are a lot of fun things to do in Paris.
Your comment reminds me of mathematician Fermats last theorem. He wrote they had a miraculous proof, but that the paper was too small to write it down. Also Paris is already heavily dramatized
My mom has been obsessed with paris and the eiffel tower for years, and when she finally went she didn't like it. 💀 edit, july 17th: bro 92 likes thanks edit, july 23rd: 120 likes 😎🤑 edit, october 2: 165 likes 💬🙈
Visited Paris last year for my birthday before the riots and strikes god bad. It is a BEAUTIFUL city, never did i ever see trash stacked up or smelled urine or had any bad experience. Its so sad how people are getting Paris at such a bad time saying how the city is disgusting. When i was there i talked to locals and they said strikes like these are very common because people like to send a message( when i had went there was a metro strike). The trash in the streets like that is a political issue not a normal Parisian thing. The city doesn’t even have trash cans all over the place and i still didn’t see trash pilled like this. This is political not normal stop confusing them. I highly recommend visiting the city and stop believing everything you see online. The only people calling the city disgusting are people who have never explored the city and only judging thru screen. Even while reading the comments to this video actual tourist who visit the city didn’t have any problems.
@ZachBruh38 yeah but the people there actually take pride in their city and don't burn it down because they increased the retirement age because the country over all has had a huge spike in life expectancy meaning to support a aging population you gotta work a little longer
Dont get Deceived by the Internet París its awesome it has a Dreamy architecture and many things to do besides the food (if you know how to find it) is amazing Clearly it has problems like any big city but I went in 2015 when everyone said it was a sewer but it was a trip that I will always remember
There's a lot of mediocre cafe food along the tourist spots. But honestly, you walk one street in and it's just fine. Some tourists are just stupid and lazy. Read a guide. Enjoy a museum.
Ох наши французы! Я скучаю по вам! Как же я хочу поехать во Францию, побывать там и увидеть вас! Ваш прекрасный город! Люблю вас Французы и Франция, вы чудная страна❤❤
Nah honestly that’s just lying. Yes it doesn’t live up to the delusional expectations of some people but it’s still a pretty nice city. Yes it’s dirty but that there are no fun activities is just wrong
Paris is pretty if you look from very far away, just don’t get too close, as someone who was born and spent my first part of life there I’m glad I don’t live there anymore cause now it’s a shithole
I’ve been to Paris there is so much to do! From art galleries the palace or the Notre dame also ofc cafes! I saw like no trash or it didn’t smell bad only a few ally ways way better and nicer than NYC
@@Turtle647We visited less than a year ago, quite lovely as a city. It’s similar/same to nyc. There’s good and bad neighborhoods and the garbage collection was just fine.
@@Turtle647this is not Paris right now, these was a few months ago, most syndicates were on strike and it lasted for about 2-3 weeks. Believe me, I go to Paris at least once a month.
I went to Paris to visit family two years ago and ngl it was more fun when we avoided tourist spots and cafés. Like they're way too expensive and the chances of getting scammed is high. Pickpockets as well and trust me it's quite something to see one in action @_@ (Spoilers:the pickpocket failed. He was caught)
I went to Paris as a child in 2013 and it was fantastic. Made some of my most fond memories there, and it felt magical. The city was also so strikingly beautiful and impending. I hope for a recovery for the long term of the worlds economy, so all these strikes can stop and we can live in peace and focus on the important big problems in our world that Russia constantly distracts us from.
I've been to Paris and I loved the city, I thought it was beautiful and found lots of fun things to do everywhere I went. The videos of trash are from the current trash collector strike and are uncommon. I personally went during the winter months so maybe it smells bad in the summer but I didn't notice any bad smell in the city. Finally I did not experience any rudeness from locals and only felt accepted. Every experience is different but I'd recommend this youtuber visit before spreading slander on such a beautiful city.
The trash collectors strike has been over for months, the city doesn't look like this anymore, it only looked like this for about 2-3 weeks. It's just that people love to exaggerate.
I visited the city a few years ago and it was lovely! The view of the Eiffel Tower from every point of the city, Norte Dame, the Louvre, every corner smelling like pastries, and a short train ride to the Palace of Versailles
Paris is actually quite fun if you don’t just visit the tourist spots. If you ever go make sure to visit some places that are more on the outskirts, and don’t go to one of those cafés around the eiffeltower and such. (The food truly is mid) Paris also has a neighborhood that is filled with Vietnamese and Thai food, go there if you want a good meal for a decent price!
September is not peak tourist season that's why. Also the cold masks away some smells. I would know because I grew up in NY, NYC feels and smells better in Fall and winter
I'm Indonesian, there's only one thing I'm afraid of in France, namely don't let Indonesian Muslim women experience verbal harassment such as being spat at, racism and so on because that would be a big problem.If there is a problem with the takedowns in Paris, there have been many famous Indonesian artists and TH-camrs who have been pickpocketed and even persecuted by the takedowns in Paris, but it is not a big problem, it is a problem for every country.
This is such bullshit. Unless you’re a phone addict and need constant hyperactivities to have a good time, Paris is a fun city to visit. It’s incredibly beautiful, the pigeons are not at all a burden and only certain parts of the city, especially the outskirts have a lot of trash. It’s well worth a visit.
Paris is a good place, you have to eat at the local restaurants that are along the river and people are extremely nice I have family there and we go every 5 years this is the media don’t listen to them
Ok that used to be the case when there was the labor shortage of les éboueurs( the people who are in charge of cleaning the trash) But now It’s all fixed! 🇫🇷❤️
I’ve been to Paris twice. I thought it was fine. I didn’t see garbage everywhere and the people were surprisingly nice. Now Greece (Athens) is another story. Garbage piles everywhere and rude people
I've been to Paris quite recently and most of this is not true at all the food is delicious there's lots of activities for museums and other things and from what I saw not that dirty at all the only problem we had was scammers but they are nearly everywhere so over Paris is great
I think the trash situation was some kind of strike, also one of my family members recently visited Paris and they said that their food is amazing. So I don't know how true this is ( maybe it depends on the neighborhood you're staying at)
Yup, the trash situation was because of a huge strike we had months ago, it lasted for about 2-3 weeks, everything's back to normal now. Yup, the food's great here.
The trash is because of the recent protest and fights between police and civilians so its safe to assume the rubbish is a short time problem that will be solved in the near future
I remember when my grandma was telling me about her trip to Paris when she was younger in 70s i believe, she used to read all these romance novels and couldn't wait to see Paris but as she said it was biggest disappointment of her life, filth everywhere, cats on the tables, dogs sleeping next to meat in butcher shops, people driving without a brain, and many more examples, since then it only got worse and worse and it kinda burst my bubble of clean civilised west.
As a french person, France isn’t as romantic as its showed to be on social media. I completely agree with the video! The streets are dirty and especially a lot of people that don’t know what respect is. And French people usually get pretty annoyed at tourists as they think Paris is just love and croissants (lol). I personally think that France is pretty to visit but not really wonderful to live in, but everything here is not as overpriced (depends on what).
Do you know why it's so dirty? Cause as a french i agree i don't like to go to paris, but do you know why ? Did you research why ? Why the people in charge of cleaning won't do it ? It's more than just being an overly romanticized city. I mean i don't know from when are your images from but if they are recent then maybe you should also explain the polical aspect of why people shouldn't go to Paris right now. I don't advise anyone to go in any big city, not just Paris. French are known for strikes and such, I just have to say, before booking a flight for France just check the political situation cause you may just not be able to do anything anywhere.... And it's the same for every country.
Saying I’ve been to Paris a couple of times this is not entirely true yes it has quite a bit of rubbish but, it is a beautiful and fun place, when I was little we went to Disney land Paris it’s was soooo fun! Also there are lots of amazing museums and art galleries. So it has got rubbish in it but it is still a fun place to make memories in! ✨💕
I cannot agree with this description. Paris is a most cultured and beautiful city ,just walk around and soak it all in,stunning sculptures and incredible architecture, that's just the beginning, I am frequent visitor and always so revived and recharged after each visit to fa e the world.Highly recommend you visit PARIS ❤❤
First of all, Paris is not trash. There is no trash anywhere and in fact, New York has more trash everywhere and if there is trash, it’s like throwing out the garbage from a café so don’t start saying that Paris is trash because the way you’re talking is trash
I've visited last week and this is more true. The left side of Paris is gorgeous. The right side is struggling. Pick and choose where to stay and where to explore but it's not all black and white. I did a lot of fun things and met amazing people it's all about your own attitude.
Paris is not that bad. I went recently and even after the protests it’s basically like any normal American large city. People forget that it’s a city. It’s not an amusement park.
I live in nyc and I’ve been to Paris 3 times, it’s beautiful over there. There’s are tons of activities to do but they’re more sight seeing, they also have Disney land Paris, tons of art + historical museums, night clubs, boat tours, parks, and iconic locations not just the tower. I actually dont like seeing the Eiffel up close, my favorite part is going somewhere obscure and seeing the tower peak out from the distance. It’s a nice escape from New York, it’s very whimsical. It’s just as dirty as New York, but it’s not a deal breaker. Don’t skip it! Not to mention it’s close to other European cities.
Look the city IS romanticized and it is very dirty BUT you go to far by saying it was “No fun activities”. Paris has some of the best museums in the world, plus rides in the sene, plus shows like musicals or dances, so yes it has a lot of fun activities that you can do
I think if you’re gonna visit France go for a nicer region like Bordeaux but when I visited Paris we were traveling on a high budget so my experience was really nice, I think it just varies with how much money you are willing to pay for good food and a nice hotel
I couldn't disagree more traveled all around Paris (have been twice in the last two years but it was before the riots) and it was stunning!! I never smelled piss, never saw anyone urinating in public and did not see an over abundance of trash. I was there in August so it was extremely hot and I was worried about all of the things you mentioned any didn't have ONE negative impression. I have been to eight countries in Europe in the last two years and traveled to Asia before that.as an American who has seen a few places Paris in my opinion is the most beautiful place in the world! And as to being bored there are so many museums (quite a few free!!) and so much history I can't imagine getting bored.
I was there a few months ago dont listen to this guy, I stayed for five days, service everywhere we went was great and there is breathtaking views, fancy restaurants and really yummy street food
Paris is not like this, this video was taken a few months ago during a nation wide strike, the streets looked like that. The strike is over, everything's back to normal.
Okay it does smell like pee in a lot of places but there isn’t trash everywhere, there’s loads to do and the food is great. If you’re interested in art, culture and history you’ll never get bored and the locals are just fine if you can speak the tiniest bit of French. Americans just aren’t used to the European style of relaxed customer service.
Friend: "Hey, do you want to travel somewhere?" Me: "Sure, Why not!" Friend: "How 'bout Paris, France 🇨🇵?" Me: "No, Paris isn't that fun anymore, the streets are filled/littered with bags of trash, and there are alot of riots happening."
@@marcioborgesreis9066 yes parisian are just like the citizens of any city except we have to deal with tourists more than the citizens of any other city.Most French people cannot understand or speak English
I agree with almost everything you said except about the food (Paris is home to some of the most renowned restaurants on Earth) and the lack of fun (it depends upon your idea of fun-if you love history, art, and architecture Paris is breathtaking). As for the garbage, yeah-the city reeks.
Paris is one of my favourite cities I've visited. There's a bit of rubbish on the street? Its a huge city so idk why you would expect it to be Spotless clean everywhere. It has good food, nightlife, historical sites, beautiful architecture and a ton of cultural activities. Definitely a great place to visit. I probably wouldn't live there but that goes for most cities of that size. Great to visit tho
Well, I've been to Texas, where they love Republicans and believe me, it's a shitty place, no culture, no history, a lot of ignorance and just boooooooring. I prefer Paris !

The trash is because of the almost constant strike from the trash collectors
@donk8105yeah we just do that everyday everytime, that's right. One time a week is my usual routine, maybe I should do more I dont know. Sounds perfectly plausible to be constantly on strike. Not that there were really particular reasons that pushed the trash collectors to go that far a few weeks ago. It's just what we do everytime indeed

I thought Paris was going to be clean and fun but I guess not
It is, I went there. As long as you go to the right places its fine.
Nope not anymore. Ever since they let in people causing this.
The riots that have occurred are the reason for this, maybe in 10 years time, they will *hopefully* clean it all up

@@user-yj7ve5zv9n No. They tend to flat out loathe Americans. When I was in high school taking French, we had a trip to France available to us. I was far too poor to go, but I still had to sit through the lectures about going. My friend Valerie actually went. When she came back, she told me how she had to tell everyone she was Canadian after an incident where someone spit in her food for being American. So if you're American, just say youre Canadian and youll be given basic respect. Xenophobes suck, but theyre out there.

@@user-yj7ve5zv9nnah. It's not just Paris. No matter where you go in France, they're rude.
when i went to paris it was the best vacation i’ve ever taken- the amount of tourist attractions like going up the eiffel tower and going to the louvre were so time consuming and fun, my whole month trip there went so fast.
You are going to the wrong places. Go to the country side, to the ocean…. It’s gorgeous and peaceful.
Paris doesn't have ocean and countryside 😂

@milica4209 I know that's why I said Pairs doesn't have

Yeah but they're only talking about Paris, nobody said don't go anywhere on France at all.
Those videos with trash everywhere are not a usual thing, plus you kinda forgot how Paris is full of museums and culture + cute places where you can walk in nature
Yes its only bad in touristy places
@@glockenspiel-ti1msIt isn’t even bad in tourist areas. This garbage is from time of strikes and protest when sanitation workers also went on strike due to the raising of pension age. This is all clickbait . Paris is a thousand times more beautiful and full of history and culture than an U.S. city, including New York, which wants to compare it to. To be clear, I know both American and European cities. I am American born with European parents, so am also European.
Paris is for a historical and cultural trip.
Not something Americans know anything about.
You really just gotta hate for no reason.
@@user-tq2vy2qs2j the one hatin os the person in the video…. 😂
How is it worth it though ? It's super expensive and it's filthy. I don't go on vacation to catch the plague 😂
@@Joe-qm4yvwell, for some things, you just have to take the bullet. I am personally fond of every form of art, and thus, Paris is a city I want to visit
Oh blah blah Americans. There are PLENTY of European cities that manage to be historical, cultural, … and clean.
Ok, i went to paris just a few months ago. The person who made this video is really dramatizing what its like. First off, its a city, ofc theres gonna be trash. But, they make it out to seem like its everywhere, its not lol. Also, the thing about having nothing to do, theres so much to do. You can visit the palace of Versailles, go to the really famous art muesum, theres also a lot of really cute bookstores to visit. Paris is definitely not really a trip for thrill seekers, but theres is a lot to do then just visiting the effiel tower. Theres a lot more to do, i was just lazy and didnt list them off.
Well the palace of Versailles is not in Paris, it is in the city of Versailles so you would have to leave Paris to see it. Maybe you're talking about the Louvre. However, it is true that there are a lot of fun things to do in Paris.
Your comment reminds me of mathematician Fermats last theorem. He wrote they had a miraculous proof, but that the paper was too small to write it down.
Also Paris is already heavily dramatized
My mom has been obsessed with paris and the eiffel tower for years, and when she finally went she didn't like it. 💀

Visited Paris last year for my birthday before the riots and strikes god bad. It is a BEAUTIFUL city, never did i ever see trash stacked up or smelled urine or had any bad experience. Its so sad how people are getting Paris at such a bad time saying how the city is disgusting. When i was there i talked to locals and they said strikes like these are very common because people like to send a message( when i had went there was a metro strike). The trash in the streets like that is a political issue not a normal Parisian thing. The city doesn’t even have trash cans all over the place and i still didn’t see trash pilled like this. This is political not normal stop confusing them.
I highly recommend visiting the city and stop believing everything you see online. The only people calling the city disgusting are people who have never explored the city and only judging thru screen. Even while reading the comments to this video actual tourist who visit the city didn’t have any problems.
I went to Paris and it was beautiful.

Why go to Paris when you can go to nice, clean, friendly Tokyo.
Cause Tokyo has no culture, Garbage architecture and the most racist people on earth
Tokyo is also overpopulated (I think)
@ZachBruh38 yeah but the people there actually take pride in their city and don't burn it down because they increased the retirement age because the country over all has had a huge spike in life expectancy meaning to support a aging population you gotta work a little longer
They don’t like foreigners or just how they Treat foreigners is a pretty good reason not to go
@@ZachBruh38 I’ve been there and whilst there are a lot of people they are nice the city is very very clean and people aren’t loud.
That's a shame. I went there in April of 2008 and it was lovely. The locals were nice and it was SO much cleaner than New York.
It's a shame that French people hate Americans now adays

Dont get Deceived by the Internet París its awesome it has a Dreamy architecture and many things to do besides the food (if you know how to find it) is amazing Clearly it has problems like any big city but I went in 2015 when everyone said it was a sewer but it was a trip that I will always remember
people complaining can just stay where they are, the trash was when there was a stike, and the food is definitely better than in the us…
The food is mid in every place.
The people are subhuman
It still smells like piss everywhere you go
There's a lot of mediocre cafe food along the tourist spots. But honestly, you walk one street in and it's just fine.
Some tourists are just stupid and lazy. Read a guide. Enjoy a museum.
Yes of couse, like in every other cities. But generally, food in paris is the best.@@puttinontheritzcrackers3301

Nah honestly that’s just lying.
Yes it doesn’t live up to the delusional expectations of some people but it’s still a pretty nice city.
Yes it’s dirty but that there are no fun activities is just wrong
Paris is pretty if you look from very far away, just don’t get too close, as someone who was born and spent my first part of life there I’m glad I don’t live there anymore cause now it’s a shithole
A “monet” if you will. Lol
I went to Paris a couple of weeks ago, and it was not dirty at all. The metro system was clean and tidy, while the entire streets were amazing.
@johnthompson5333 the one where he obviously didn’t go to Paris lol
I’ve been to Paris there is so much to do! From art galleries the palace or the Notre dame also ofc cafes! I saw like no trash or it didn’t smell bad only a few ally ways way better and nicer than NYC

This video is talking about France right now, you probably went a while ago.
@@Turtle647We visited less than a year ago, quite lovely as a city. It’s similar/same to nyc. There’s good and bad neighborhoods and the garbage collection was just fine.
@@Turtle647this is not Paris right now, these was a few months ago, most syndicates were on strike and it lasted for about 2-3 weeks.
Believe me, I go to Paris at least once a month.
I went to Paris to visit family two years ago and ngl it was more fun when we avoided tourist spots and cafés. Like they're way too expensive and the chances of getting scammed is high. Pickpockets as well and trust me it's quite something to see one in action @_@
(Spoilers:the pickpocket failed. He was caught)
I went to Paris as a child in 2013 and it was fantastic. Made some of my most fond memories there, and it felt magical. The city was also so strikingly beautiful and impending. I hope for a recovery for the long term of the worlds economy, so all these strikes can stop and we can live in peace and focus on the important big problems in our world that Russia constantly distracts us from.
That's why tourists should go to south France like "Monaco" or "Aix-en-Provence" where it's beautiful
I've been to Paris and I loved the city, I thought it was beautiful and found lots of fun things to do everywhere I went. The videos of trash are from the current trash collector strike and are uncommon. I personally went during the winter months so maybe it smells bad in the summer but I didn't notice any bad smell in the city. Finally I did not experience any rudeness from locals and only felt accepted.
Every experience is different but I'd recommend this youtuber visit before spreading slander on such a beautiful city.
The trash collectors strike has been over for months, the city doesn't look like this anymore, it only looked like this for about 2-3 weeks. It's just that people love to exaggerate.
I need to tell my girl Marinette to move to England... It’s a win-win situation, innit? She gets to live in a clean place, and I get her!
I visited the city a few years ago and it was lovely! The view of the Eiffel Tower from every point of the city, Norte Dame, the Louvre, every corner smelling like pastries, and a short train ride to the Palace of Versailles
And they have the audacity to call themselves a first world country? 💀 its givin... zimbabwe
The amount of Muslims who were chanting under the Eiffel Tower should tell you all you need to know 😅
Paris is actually quite fun if you don’t just visit the tourist spots. If you ever go make sure to visit some places that are more on the outskirts, and don’t go to one of those cafés around the eiffeltower and such. (The food truly is mid) Paris also has a neighborhood that is filled with Vietnamese and Thai food, go there if you want a good meal for a decent price!
I went to Paris last sep and it was really pretty... And not like this 😭
The only reason it’s like this is because of protests
September is not peak tourist season that's why. Also the cold masks away some smells. I would know because I grew up in NY, NYC feels and smells better in Fall and winter
@@bmona7550 I see. My country is summer all year long so I wouldn't know xD

I'm Indonesian, there's only one thing I'm afraid of in France, namely don't let Indonesian Muslim women experience verbal harassment such as being spat at, racism and so on because that would be a big problem.If there is a problem with the takedowns in Paris, there have been many famous Indonesian artists and TH-camrs who have been pickpocketed and even persecuted by the takedowns in Paris, but it is not a big problem, it is a problem for every country.
This is such bullshit. Unless you’re a phone addict and need constant hyperactivities to have a good time, Paris is a fun city to visit. It’s incredibly beautiful, the pigeons are not at all a burden and only certain parts of the city, especially the outskirts have a lot of trash. It’s well worth a visit.
paris syndrome is a literal phenomena where tourists experience a bout of dissapointment and depression due to being underwhelmed from going to paris
I've visited 29 countries, lived in 10 of them, met many tourists and the vast majority loved Paris
“Too many pigeons”
not to mention, riots & looting & protesting now.
“The amount of pigeons everywhere”
*me immune to pigeons because I live in London*
I visited Paris in 2019. It was great, and i had a great time. I don't know about what is going on now.
Still great ... only when there is stricks it becomes annoying .
Paris is a good place, you have to eat at the local restaurants that are along the river and people are extremely nice I have family there and we go every 5 years this is the media don’t listen to them
Ok that used to be the case when there was the labor shortage of les éboueurs( the people who are in charge of cleaning the trash)
But now It’s all fixed! 🇫🇷❤️
I’ve been to Paris twice. I thought it was fine. I didn’t see garbage everywhere and the people were surprisingly nice.
Now Greece (Athens) is another story. Garbage piles everywhere and rude people
I've been to Paris quite recently and most of this is not true at all the food is delicious there's lots of activities for museums and other things and from what I saw not that dirty at all the only problem we had was scammers but they are nearly everywhere so over Paris is great
I think the trash situation was some kind of strike, also one of my family members recently visited Paris and they said that their food is amazing. So I don't know how true this is ( maybe it depends on the neighborhood you're staying at)
Yup, the trash situation was because of a huge strike we had months ago, it lasted for about 2-3 weeks, everything's back to normal now. Yup, the food's great here.
The trash is because of the recent protest and fights between police and civilians so its safe to assume the rubbish is a short time problem that will be solved in the near future
It has already been solved. It was just a strike.
You’re going to the wrong places, Paris is beautiful - I’ve been here for a month now and I never want to leave
Who was in Paris?
Actually I enjoyed it a lot… lots of museums and music on the streets
I remember when my grandma was telling me about her trip to Paris when she was younger in 70s i believe, she used to read all these romance novels and couldn't wait to see Paris but as she said it was biggest disappointment of her life, filth everywhere, cats on the tables, dogs sleeping next to meat in butcher shops, people driving without a brain, and many more examples, since then it only got worse and worse and it kinda burst my bubble of clean civilised west.
As a french person, France isn’t as romantic as its showed to be on social media. I completely agree with the video! The streets are dirty and especially a lot of people that don’t know what respect is. And French people usually get pretty annoyed at tourists as they think Paris is just love and croissants (lol). I personally think that France is pretty to visit but not really wonderful to live in, but everything here is not as overpriced (depends on what).
Soo sad :( it seems every big beautiful city is Turing ugly now. Humans ruin everything.

@@Mokirunn61BECAUSE OF FUCKING HUMANS!!!!!
*disney land Paris has left the chat*
Go to Normandy if you want to experience how beautiful France is! And the locals love Americans there, not so much in Paris
Do you know why it's so dirty? Cause as a french i agree i don't like to go to paris, but do you know why ? Did you research why ? Why the people in charge of cleaning won't do it ? It's more than just being an overly romanticized city. I mean i don't know from when are your images from but if they are recent then maybe you should also explain the polical aspect of why people shouldn't go to Paris right now. I don't advise anyone to go in any big city, not just Paris. French are known for strikes and such, I just have to say, before booking a flight for France just check the political situation cause you may just not be able to do anything anywhere.... And it's the same for every country.
I went to paris just like a month and it was not like this.
I am currently in Paris and yeah I see your point
Saying I’ve been to Paris a couple of times this is not entirely true yes it has quite a bit of rubbish but, it is a beautiful and fun place, when I was little we went to Disney land Paris it’s was soooo fun! Also there are lots of amazing museums and art galleries. So it has got rubbish in it but it is still a fun place to make memories in! ✨💕
I cannot agree with this description. Paris is a most cultured and beautiful city ,just walk around and soak it all in,stunning sculptures and incredible architecture, that's just the beginning, I am frequent visitor and always so revived and recharged after each visit to fa e the world.Highly recommend you visit PARIS ❤❤
To each their own but I really liked Paris 🤷🏽♀️ lol. I went before the strike happened so I didn’t smell the piss lol
...and the strike has been over for months now, it's just that some people love to exaggerate.
Damn. Dirtier than NYC? Yikes. Lol
First of all, Paris is not trash. There is no trash anywhere and in fact, New York has more trash everywhere and if there is trash, it’s like throwing out the garbage from a café so don’t start saying that Paris is trash because the way you’re talking is trash
I've visited last week and this is more true. The left side of Paris is gorgeous. The right side is struggling. Pick and choose where to stay and where to explore but it's not all black and white. I did a lot of fun things and met amazing people it's all about your own attitude.
I had a friend who went and they did say is was disgusting and dirty … crazy
i hated paris and london was even worse
Sorry about your experience in London mate. It’s kinda bad for us too.
@@kingmegatron7974 it’s alright. i feel i would have enjoyed it more if i wasn’t with my school when we went.
Paris is not that bad. I went recently and even after the protests it’s basically like any normal American large city. People forget that it’s a city. It’s not an amusement park.
I live in nyc and I’ve been to Paris 3 times, it’s beautiful over there. There’s are tons of activities to do but they’re more sight seeing, they also have Disney land Paris, tons of art + historical museums, night clubs, boat tours, parks, and iconic locations not just the tower. I actually dont like seeing the Eiffel up close, my favorite part is going somewhere obscure and seeing the tower peak out from the distance. It’s a nice escape from New York, it’s very whimsical. It’s just as dirty as New York, but it’s not a deal breaker. Don’t skip it! Not to mention it’s close to other European cities.
Ladybug and cat noir should really clean their city😂😂
They need Batman bruh💀

Look the city IS romanticized and it is very dirty BUT you go to far by saying it was “No fun activities”. Paris has some of the best museums in the world, plus rides in the sene, plus shows like musicals or dances, so yes it has a lot of fun activities that you can do
Paris has everything , if he can not have fun in Paris , it means he is a boring person .
I think if you’re gonna visit France go for a nicer region like Bordeaux but when I visited Paris we were traveling on a high budget so my experience was really nice, I think it just varies with how much money you are willing to pay for good food and a nice hotel
Florence is not in France, though.

Freedom of speech is why your video not taken down despite it hurting France tourism.
I couldn't disagree more traveled all around Paris (have been twice in the last two years but it was before the riots) and it was stunning!! I never smelled piss, never saw anyone urinating in public and did not see an over abundance of trash. I was there in August so it was extremely hot and I was worried about all of the things you mentioned any didn't have ONE negative impression. I have been to eight countries in Europe in the last two years and traveled to Asia before that.as an American who has seen a few places Paris in my opinion is the most beautiful place in the world! And as to being bored there are so many museums (quite a few free!!) and so much history I can't imagine getting bored.
