Pont neuf

Yesterday we went to check out the oldest bridge in Paris “Pont Neuf” The bridge has some very unique features and has been in many movie scenes. We walked the bridge admiring the architecture with ornate lamp-post, stone arches and the statue of Henry IV.

The bridge which is the oldest one in Paris was impressive. The whole bridge is ornate and one of a kind. It was well worth the walk to check it out.
