(Last Update: 03.06.2025) Taking a boat ride on the Seine River is as enjoyable as walking the streets of Paris. Therefore, the subject of this article will be Bateaux Parisiens, one of the most well-known Seine River cruise boats. Bateaux Parisiens is actually read as "bato parizyan", or more accurately "bato pağizyan" in French, but everyone except the French says "bato parizyen" :) Founded in 1956, Bateaux Parisiens was founded in Seine
(Last Update: 03.06.2025) So far, in my articles, I have mentioned that there are three islands in Paris, and I even explained that two of them are natural and one is an artificial island, but in this article, we go a little outside the touristic center of Paris and visit another very beautiful island. , We will get to know Île de la Jatte, that is, Jatte Island. As you know, it is one of two islands in the touristic center of Paris.
(Last Update: 03.06.2025) When I first moved to Paris in March 2012, one of the strangest things was that although there were many beautiful coastal areas along the Seine River, Parisians did not take advantage of these beauties. No matter how much I talked or said, my words must have reached the ears of the authorities, and as the years went by, the banks of the Seine began to become more active, beautiful places opened up and life started to come to life.
(Last Update: 04.06.2025) There are many options for a dinner cruise on the Seine River, but I would like to tell you about Le Calife, which is my favorite among the dinner cruise boats and which I tried for the first time at a very special celebration dinner evening in March 2017. Le Calife (lö kalif) is one of the old barges known as péniche (peniş) in French, which used to carry cargo on the Seine River.
(Last Update: 04.06.2025) Bistro Alexandre III, which I want to tell you about in this article, is a pleasant place with a wonderful view, on the banks of the Seine River, or rather on it, which you can visit not only in summer in nice weather, but also when the weather is cold. Bistro Alexandre III (bistro aleksandr trua or bistğo alekandğ tğua) is located right next to Pont Alexandre III - the Third Alexandre Bridge, one of the most elegant bridges in Paris.
(Last Update: 03.06.2025) The treasures of Paris are endless. So much so that although these treasures are always in the middle of nowhere, they can sometimes go unnoticed, whether it is because we are focusing on other things or because there are too many things to focus on. But we all continue to turn Paris upside down, and in this article, we are going to show you one of those treasures, making Paris feel like a port city by the sea.
(Last Update: 05.06.2025) As an Istanbulite in Paris, perhaps the only thing I missed was eating and drinking something overlooking the sea on the Bosphorus, let's say I passed through the Bosphorus. So much so that I don't even like the open sea, life will continue on the opposite shore like Istanbul; Ferries and seagulls will pass between both of them. This aspect of life is missing when you're in Paris
(Last Update: 05.06.2025) As I shared in my previous articles, there are a total of 37 bridges over the Seine River and 4 of these bridges serve only as pedestrian bridges. Here we are on one of those bridges again in this article: Passerelle Simone de Beauvoir (passerel simon dö bovuar or pasegel simon dö bovuağ). This bridge, built between Bibliothèque National de France and Parc de Bercy, is used only for pedestrian crossing.
(Last Update: 06.06.2025) Those who follow Pariste.Net know that there are a total of 4 bridges in Paris, 33 of which are for pedestrians and 37 for vehicles. In this article, we will get to know the second bridge I like the most in Paris, the Bir Hakeim Bridge - Pont de Bir-Hakeim. Between us, I like the Pont Alexandre III Bridge the most... The state of being "most beautiful" is relative.
(Last Update: 06.06.2025) I always say that the French "do not like enjoying themselves by the water, or rather eating and drinking, as much as we do", probably to protect themselves from natural conditions. As you know, rivers can overflow from time to time, so waterside areas are always in danger. I can understand this to a certain extent, but are we overthinking eating and drinking by the water, or are the French?
