Mon banc dominical – Coulée Verte René-Dumont.

Green metal park bench on a leaf-strewn path of the Coulée Verte René-Dumont, with trees, a green railing and white statues in the background under an overcast sky.

Some days the city feels far away even when you’re still inside it. Up on theCoulée Verte René-Dumont the traffic drops to a distant hum and the only real sound is the occasional footstep on the gravel. This particular bench looks on to part of Jardin de Reuilly - Paul Pernin but along this greenwalkway you are spoiled for choice.

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