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 bridge, depicted in a famous painting by Renoir, is the oldest remaining bridge in Paris.
According to my understanding of French, it is both the New Bridge (as in unused) and the Nine Bridge. Either way, it is a nice structure to cross on foot (includes the western end of the Ile de la Cite) and also an impressive structure to pass under (which I did three or four times on the amazing Batobus. When one goes under this bridge, one can see and photograph (as I did), the massive letter N on the sides.

Thus is certainly out favorite bridge- the only one that connects the two islands in the Seine River. We crossed it immediately upon arrival, and several more times, since we went to the areas behind Notre Dame cathedral and the Deportation Memorial at least three roles during our nine day visit. This is a pleasant and scenic wonderful bridge for pedestrians only, and every time we crossed, there were outstanding musicians standing in the middle, demonstrating their talents- often playing classic American folk tunes. The Batobus and the other tour boats do not go under this excellent bridge. We thoroughly enjoyed it..,, maybe I have a few photos that I can attach.

Pont Saint-Michel is a small bridge that links the Place Saint-Michel on the left bank of the Seine River to the Île de la Cité. It is located fairly close to Notre-Dame Cathedral. The bridge was built in 1857 but its history actually goes back much further, to around the second half of the fourteenth century. It was rebuilt several times due to a range of reasons.

The views from this bridge are fantastic and has everything you could want - old buildings, Parisian street architecture and of course it's name sake, the Notre Dame. I have been to Paris a few times and love each of their bridges because it's so beautiful. Each bridge gives you a different view and each one has something different going on but if you're going to see the Notre Dame anyway, then this bridge is a must do.

The Petit Pont is the oldest bridge of Paris. It connects the Ile de la Cité to the Left Bank to Rue Saint Jacques The Petit Pont was named so because it spanned the narrowest of the Seine while the Pont Notre-Dame spanned the widest. This single-arch Petit Pont is 32m long by 20m wide. While the Pont Notre-Dame is 105m long by 20m wide.
