The 8 Best Nature & Parks in Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois, Ile-de-France
Lingering over pain au chocolat in a sidewalk café, relaxing after a day of strolling along the Seine and marveling at icons like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe… the perfect Paris experience combines leisure and liveliness with enough time to savor both an exquisite meal and exhibits at the Louvre. Awaken your spirit at Notre Dame, bargain hunt at the Marché aux Puces de Montreuil or for goodies at the Marché Biologique Raspail, then cap it all off with a risqué show at the Moulin Rouge.

This famous river flows from east to west through the heart of the city and divides Paris's Left Bank and Right Bank.

You can find moments on the bridges (des Arts for the romantic locks) or from the River itself on a Hop on Hop off boat - you can go from museum to museum (the Louvre to D'Orsay) and see the beautiful Eiffel Tower throughout...the best moments may be the cafes, street artists and crepe makers, but Paris charm resides in all of it! I love this city and its river!

This is one of our favorite strolls in Paris - Place de Concorde to the Louvre. Great people watching, picnicking and napping. Grab a chair and check out!

A small park on the Île de la Cité.
Reviewed By SuperTed19 - Madison, United States
It’s tiny speck of grass on the western tip of Ile de la Cité. There is a huge tree, under which one can sit comfortably and watch the city go about its business.

The historical heart of Paris has much to commend it: the splendor of both Notre Dame de Paris and the Ste Chapelle, and the medieval Conciergerie with its captivating exterior and fascinating interior being the obvious highlights. But there are other wonderful treasures and diversions: the Pont-Neuf, the oldest bridge in Paris with the statue of the ever popular King Henry IV astride his horse; the quaint Place de la Dauphine, a lovely if somewhat pricey place to enjoy a Parisian lunch; the Place de Vert Galant, peaceful today but remembered for it being the place where the head of the Knights Templar order was burned at the stake in the early 14th century (today you can board a Seine river cruise boat at the foot of the stairs leading back up to street level); the disturbing and evocative memorial of the deportation of the Jews at the very easterly tip of the island behind Notre Dame. By the time you climb the tower of the Notre Dame cathedral, pay a worthwhile visit to its crypt, nose around in the inevitable souvenir shops, take advantage of countless photo ops and enjoy one or two of the memorable views from any one of the bridges accessing the island, you will find that your day on the Ile de la Cite was complete and rewarding.

We were tired after walking all day and found this place perfect for a brief respite. It was very warm outside, but it was beautiful in the cool shade. It’s also a decent place to take pics with the Tuileries Garden and the Louvre in the backdrop.
