The Metro System

IMG_6015

Paris' metro system runs until right around 1:30am or 2am. The last metro ride I've ever gotten was right around 1:45am. After that time, much like London, night buses take over. Here are some pictures of Paris' metro when its empty.

There's an eerie feeling about riding the subway when there's barely anyone there. Light flickers tend to have more emphasis and pure fact that I can see the entire length of a passageway is kind of creepy.

I almost got locked in a station when this picture was taken. As you can see a lot of the passages have already been gated. As I was exiting the night person had already locked up the exit gate.
