La Défense, a Paris district, 5km west of downtown Paris City. It is the largest business district in Europe with more than 3 million square meters of offices and shopping centers. The development of La Défense in the perspective of Champs Elysees and Arc de Triomphe is a typical example of Paris planned urban development.

I recently got to visit the amazing Chain of Rocks Bridge. The Gateway Arch in St Louis is visible downstream. The bridge was built at one of the most scenic parts of the Mississippi River.

Marrakech is a beautiful Moroccan city so filled with old Arabic world charm - like what one would imagine when reading an Arabic tale as a child. The Medina, architecture, dusty pink colored walls, winding alleys, friendly locals, traditional medicine stores, souks, amazing chaos in the main square..... all make Marrakech a truly memorable and unique destination like nowhere else in the world.
