River Seine Paris


Beautiful area with lots of history as the River Seine winds through the city of Paris. The island is the Ile St. Louis, where Paris was born. Ile St. Louis is a traditional refuge of the Parisian upper classes. Many artists found their way onto the island, including famous figures such as Hemingway, and the island is covered in examples of 17th century architecture. Notre Dame is somewhere there in the distance.
