The Pont des Arts Bridge connects  the Institut de France and the Cour Carrée of the Palais du Louvre. It is the most reliable and beautiful way to get to right bank. It is also a party place when the night comes for the neighborhood’s students. But before that you have to “do” the Bouquinistes (secondhand booksellers which are set along the Seine) from the Pont Neuf to the Quai Voltaire. In those famous green boxes we can find old books or secondhand books, old magazines and reviews or collector’s cards, a real Aladdin’s cave for collectors of all kinds.

 

 

Another possibility is to go down on the Seine’s banks and to stroll, admiring the barges.
