Temple a La Loi sur l'hygiene de 1902

We got such a kick out of the title of this building. We had just disembarked from a Bateau Mouche and headed for the bus stop. I looked up and saw this sign printed on the series of toilettes building. Maybe in French it would have a different meaning. Only in Paris could you find an outhouse so elegantly glorified. Temple of doom, Temple of Isis, even Temple of the Virgins, but Temple of Toilets! Anyway, I loved it and the whole concept. Functional, too.  Posted by Picasa

A very weird "Temple". The two doors on the right look quite (VERY) narrow comparing with the one for disabled people!

The door for the disabled is usually wide so that a wheelchair can enter without too much trouble.
