I will not go into history, because everyone knows that the famous and beloved by many Paris originates from here. The Island of the City is washed on all sides by the Seine and is connected by nine bridges to the rest of the city. This is one of the most popular tourist spots. It houses unique architectural structures that reflect the great history of France: Notre Dame Cathedral, the Crypt of the Notre Dame porch, the Palace of Justice, the Sainte-Chapelle Chapel, the Conciergerie Castle and many interesting things: the small and cozy Place Dauphine and the house in which the famous chansonnier of the 20th century lived -Yves Montand, the statue of the most loving king of France-Henry IV, Ver-Galane square, Hotel-Dieu, Kilometer Zero, Memorial to the victims of deportation, bird and flower markets, etc. The island offers a beautiful view of the banks of the Seine and the Eiffel Tower is clearly visible, Musé e d'Orsay, Louvre, Chatelet Square, Saint-Jacques Tower, City Hall, Place Greve.
It is easy to get here, on the island there is the Cite metro station, which is the deepest of the entire Parisian subway, and there are also many bus routes. It is impossible to be in Paris and not see its center, and then just fall in love with this place and return every time you visit France. I really like to just sit on the shore in the park and feed the ducks (there are a lot of them here), breathe the Parisian air and watch the passing boats.
