Get the most out of Paris

Have a late night picnic at the Square du Vert-Galant

If you want to get a taste of the real Midnight in Paris, bohemian vibe, make your way down to the Square du Vert-Galant with a bottle of wine in the evening. The cosy park is situated on the western tip of the Île de la Cité and can be reached by taking the stairs down from Pont Neuf. In the summer, the park is dotted with people relaxing on the grass, enjoying the view and watching the boats sail past on either side of the island. It’s not uncommon to see sparkling tea lights floating downstream with them too, adding that extra touch of Parisian magic.
