Oh là là…Paris! Here’s a look at five Instagram accounts that will have you packing a bag for the City of Light in no time.
Paris is arguably the world’s most “Insta-esque” city.

One of the best ways for a Paris fix? Ogling open-mouthed at photos that best capture the city’s magic, of course.
For all you Paris enthusiasts, we’ve complied five of our favorite Instagram accounts (in no particular order) that beautifully showcase the city’s wonders. Enjoy!
Swedish photographer Carrin Olssen moved to Paris in 2012 for what was supposed to be a four month visit, and she’s still there. Her thoughtfully framed photos beautifully capture the city in hues that are at once both muted and vibrant.
