This is it. Autumn has arrived in Paris (keep it a secret, but it’s our favorite time of year to visit!).

The city is gradually donning its golden robes, the trees aren’t quite bald yet, and the scarves still seem a little too warm.

There’s a grace, an inexplicable poetry that takes hold of Paris this time of year. Follow us as we share our favorite spots to admire the city! 

Spoiler alert: you’re going to see a lot of orange leaves.

The Royal Palace Garden

Designated a “remarkable garden”, the garden of the Palais Royal is a must-see in autumn, when you’ll be captivated by the beauty of Paris… The park, just a 10-minute walk from the hotel, boasts endless carpets of fallen leaves and a gentle nostalgia.

We love to stroll on benches adorned with quotations from great authors. Our favorite: “Je ne cesserai d’éclore, que pour cesser de vivre” by Colette. 

We warn you: if you haven’t fallen in love with Paris by now, you won’t be able to resist it much longer.

Montmartre

It’s no secret that Montmartre in autumn is a must-see!
If the district is already bursting with charm the rest of the year, imagine it in autumn, with the orange and red ivy covering the facades of its townhouses and cobbled streets… Thanks to its elevated location, it’s also a prime spot for watching the most beautiful sunsets over the city’s rooftops. At golden hour, it’s simply… magical!

Père Lachaise cemetery

Why not take a stroll in the presence of Edith Piaf, Balzac, Chopin, Jim Morrison or Oscar Wilde?

The world’s most visited cemetery, Père-Lachaise is a mysterious place populated by dead stars.

In autumn, the leaves set on the magnificent tombs, giving the place a highly poetic atmosphere.

Composers, painters, men of letters… which celebrity will you come face to face with?

Les quais de Seine

Take a stroll through the bookstalls, the hot chestnut stalls and head off, armed with your bonnet, along the banks of the Seine.

We especially recommend lounging around Ile Saint Louis for a majestic view of the capital.

There’s probably no better place to admire the colors of the trees blending with the architecture of Paris.

The city is transformed into a painting worthy of the greatest impressionists.

And for those who prefer to watch Paris unfold like a film, the fly boat option is also a great way to admire the spectacle!
