@moments.in.time0: In September 1900, Paris is hosting the spectacular Exposition Universelle. As a member of the global elite, you get to experience the fair in total luxury. You arrive in a private horse drawn carriage and glide through the monumental entrance gates. The newly built Grand Palais and Pont Alexandre III gleam in the late morning sun. Inside the massive exhibition halls, you are treated to exclusive viewings of Parisian fashion before enjoying a quiet luncheon overlooking the River Seine. To avoid the massive walking crowds, you take a ride on the brand new electric Metro Line 1. The entire city is a masterpiece of modern engineering wrapped in beautiful classical stone. As dusk falls over the Champ de Mars, the real magic begins. The temporary Palace of Electricity completely lights up the night sky with tens of thousands of glowing incandescent bulbs. You finish the evening riding home along the river, leaving the dazzling electric spectacle behind you. Could you get used to this level of Belle Epoque luxury? #POV #Paris #WorldsFair #1900 #History
