Location: Palais Royal - Musée du Louvre rail station (on stairs underground)
As Paris has underground rail network, I and my friend were on our way to Louvre Museum. We reached to Palais Royal - Musée du Louvre (rail station) from our hotel by rail. From there we had to walk till Louvre Museum so we were going up on stairs. There was lot rush because of new year. I and my friend were moving so slowly on stairs. My friend was next to me and I was following him. One girl pushed me from back and crossed me, moving ahead. I took it lightly thinking she could be in hurry. Within 2 seconds, one more girl pushed me from back and crossed me, moving ahead. She had a big towel shape cloth, holding in her hands, trying to cover my front view. I could understand something in time, my friend stopped and looked back to me. He had his hands in his pockets.
I saw those two girls standing there like nothing happened. Then, they ran from there immediately. I checked my pockets, my stuff was safe.
"That girl tried to pickpocket me. She had put her hand into my pocket. When I realized and looked there, she immediately took her hand out." My friend said.
We had heard of it before coming to Paris but it was a real experience. So, guys whenever you visit Paris, be little more careful about your pockets.
