Resolve your doubts about Square du Vert-Galant: The bow of the Ile de la Cité
The Square du Vert-Galant is an emerald triangle that floats over the Seine, marking the exact point where medieval Paris was born. Located at the western tip of the Ile de la Cité, this park is the most intimate viewpoint of the city. Named in honor of King Henri IV, it is a space where the river physically divides to embrace the historic center, offering the sensation of being on the bow of a large stone ship.

Your adventure begins by descending the elegant stone stairs behind the statue of Henri IV on the Pont Neuf. As you go down, the noise of the traffic disappears, replaced by the sound of the water. Walk to the end of the triangle, surrounded by weeping willows whose branches touch the river. This is the classic setting for the Parisian apéro: we suggest bringing wine and cheese to enjoy on the stone wall inches from the water. From this low perspective, you’ll get a close look at the sculpted figureheads on the bridge as the Bateaux Mouches pass so close you could wave at them.
Level: Safe / Relaxed. Critical Warning: The park has no railings; Keep your distance from the edge, especially if it has rained, as the stones are slippery. In winter the park is usually flooded by the flooding of the Seine; If you see the doors closed, don’t try to jump.
Grade: Silver (Limited). Access is via steep stone stairs. Not wheelchair friendly at water level. Inclusive Tip: Enjoy the view from the upper plaza next to the statue; the ‘bow’ perspective from above is equally majestic and accessible.
The extreme tip of the park, looking towards the Pont des Arts. Pro Tip: Arrive 30 minutes before sunset. The grazing light passes through the eyes of the bridges. Use an ND filter for long exposure photography to turn the Sena into a silver silk surface.
