Autumn bench on the Coulée Verte.

An autumn bench on the Coulée Verte René-Dumont, the planted promenade created along a former railway line in Paris.

This curved green bench on the Coulée Verte René-Dumont makes an inviting place to pause among the autumn planting. Behind it, the green arched structure frames the garden, while the promenade continues along the former railway route from Bastille towards Vincennes. The old railway was transformed into the Promenade Plantée from 1988, creating one of Paris's most distinctive elevated walks.


Happy Sunday everyone! Have a peaceful day, everyone.

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