Paris Walking Tour

There’s a travel route that starts at the Pont Marie bridge in Paris and takes you all the way to the Eiffel Tower. As you pass the Pont Marie bridge, you’ll cross Île de la Cité and come face-to-face with the iconic Notre-Dame Cathedral, famous for its connection to the novel "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame." If you’ve read the book, the experience will feel even more profound. Walking along the Seine River, you’ll come across the "Musicians’ Bridge." While this isn’t its official name, it’s a nickname given by Parisians. True to its name, you’ll often see street musicians singing or playing instruments here. I managed to capture a perfect photo with a streetlamp as the backdrop at this spot. Crossing the bridge, you’ll arrive at the Louvre Museum. There’s a must-take photo here—posing as if you’re pinching the tip of the glass pyramid! I asked someone nearby to take the shot for me, and while I tried to return the favor, I found it surprisingly tricky to get the angle just right. Next, it’s time to head to Passy Station to see the Eiffel Tower. While the Trocadéro Square offers a great view of the tower, Passy Station is much less crowded, making it easier to take photos. After snapping some pictures, it’s also convenient to walk over to catch a ride on the Bateaux Mouches. The Eiffel Tower is visible from almost anywhere in Paris on a clear day, making it easy to orient yourself no matter where you are.
