10 Cities That Are Even More Magical at Night (5 of 6)

8. Paris, France

Of course, Paris is on this list! It is the City of Light, after all. But it’s not just about the Eiffel Tower’s hourly bling, even though it is amazing. It’s also the way the Seine reflects the golden hues of the bridges and how every corner caf glows with soft lighting and smells of pastries and coffee. Montmartre at night feels like a romantic movie set, and Notre Dame still cuts a majestic silhouette. Absolute cinema.

9. Seoul, South Korea

Seoul has something for everyone, from ancient temples and palaces to futuristic skylines and LED gardens. And if you think it looks stunning during the daytime, just wait till the sun sets. Dongdaemun’s LED rose garden, romantic Han River cruises, and Namsan Tower light up the skyline with rainbow colorsand that’s just scratching the surface. Even the old gates and temples glow peacefully under neatly placed lighting, giving Seoul that special old-vs-new vibe.
