Mon banc dominical — my Sunday bench...more in Parc de Bercy.

Two pale green benches facing each other on a cobbled path in the wooded gardens of Parc de Bercy, Paris.

Some parks have a favourite bench. Parc de Bercy has dozens. Whether you prefer sunshine, deep shade or a quiet path beneath the trees, it's one of the easiest places in Paris to find a peaceful seat for a Sunday pause.

The pale green benches scattered throughout Parc de Bercy are a modern interpretation of the classic Paris park bench. With more than 1,000 benches across the park's 14 hectares, there's always another quiet corner waiting to be discovered.


 
Happy Sunday everyone! Have a peaceful day, everyone.

Paris has many views — but the one from a Sunday bench might be the most honest.”
