>>45524212>Paris was never a beautiful city this is just a myth that american mutts make up in their heads when the see the Eiffiel tower and assume that the entire city is the same. Paris was always made of shitty people and dirty streets.That's the case with A LOT of cities and tourist attractions. Popular media romanticizes them and only showcases the best elements of the city and ramps them up to 11. In reality, there are rundown areas, poverty, prostitution, filth, etc. just like any old non-tourist location.
