Pont de Sully
Opened in 1876, the Pont de Sully crosses the Seine in two spans, resting on the eastern tip of the Île Saint-Louis. It replaced two toll footbridges that Parisians largely avoided.
Its angled position gives it a rare asset: from the deck you take in Notre-Dame's apse on one side and the Institut du Monde Arabe and Tino-Rossi garden on the other.
Tip: stop halfway on the upstream side for the most photographed view of the Île Saint-Louis. Perfect for walking from the Marais to the Latin Quarter.
