Your article did sound like promoting tourism in France. Believe me its not we Indians had taken out frustration of taking photographs in France but its you who had taken out frustration of France not been not been know as for Intelligent people apart from Art or Architecture. Now let me discuss a few points that you had raised in your article.
Traffic: you have 100 people staying in a vast area of 10 kms where as we have 10,000 in the same so it will be cramped but we still allow another "White guy" to stay with us in this cramped area itself as we respect humans and are protective.
Photographs: Will you allow me to take photographs of your house if i am an alien to you. Not right? We too do not want people to take photographs of our ancient history as they would not use it for good things but make a replica of it and thus its importance vanishes.
On the whole please try a different way to promote tourism in France my dear friend. Though we have crampped roads, houses, hotels, busses, trains and airlines we still have a big heart to accomodate more like you.
Hope your mindset will change as you are another babu from France.
