Pont Alexandre III 🇫🇷

#paristrip Well, it’s very clear that I like bridges, not especially in architecture or even history so much but I know a nice bridge when I see one and they are bridges that often lead to some of the other best attractions. This, named after Tsar Alexander, is one of the most beautiful bridges over the Seine and is located at the lower end of the Champs-Eas area so you may stumble across the bridge when traveling around Paris’ main landmarks. Turn left before crossing the bridge and you can walk along the banks of the river to the Louvre or cross the bridge Turn to the right and head after the bridge to the Eiffel Tower with many other locations along the way in both directions. The bridge itself is very decorative and well lit at night especially if you take one of the many evening cruises along the Seine. It has decorative lighting that extends over the bridge and a number of gold-plated statues along its sides with a beautiful centerpiece. Worth a visit because of that and because it is so close and an access point to many other places of interest, Near Concord Square and served by Concorde Metro Station.
