Did you know that in the 19th century, Paris had a bizarre streetlight system powered by giant mirrors? Before electricity lit up the City of Light, a network of mirrors was installed to reflect sunlight into the streets, illuminating them at night. While innovative, the system often fell short on cloudy days, leading to its eventual replacement by gas lamps. A quirky glimpse into the lengths humans have gone to bring light to darkness!
