If the city of Paris<\/a> in the spring is sweetly pretty, delicate and pastel, a Parisian autumn is much bolder, crisper and brighter<\/strong>. \u00a0The City of Light is bedecked in the blazing oranges, reds and yellows of the turning leaves. \u00a0Paris never looks more beautiful than when she is wearing nature\u2019s most audacious color palette.<\/p>\n

\n\t\"Ile\n\t
Ile de la Cite, Paris<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This time of year is perfect for exploring the city on foot. \u00a0The weather carries a pleasant chill – perfect for showing off your chic new Herm\u00e8s scarf. \u00a0On a sunny day this fall, plan on taking a full day to wander through the\u00a0\u00cele-de-la-Cit\u00e9<\/strong>, the natural island in the center of the Seine that is home to the Notre Dame Cathedral. All of the 4th arrondissement<\/a> offers lots to do and to see.<\/p>\n

Every tour of Paris makes a stop in the 4th arrondissement at Notre Dame<\/strong>, but there is much more to this charming island than the famous cathedral. \u00a0Autumn is the perfect time to enjoy Le Square du Vert-Galant<\/strong>, the teardrop shaped green space situated at the very tip of \u00cele-de-la-Cit\u00e9. \u00a0This beautiful and tiny park glows with the fiery colors of fall and provides an excellent spot to watch the world pass by via boat. \u00a0Just past Le Square du Vert-Galant lies the downstream tip of the island. \u00a0Settle under the weeping willow that keeps sentry over the Seine to watch the bateaux-mouches and see an unparalleled view of the city.<\/p>\n

Stroll along the island to admire many of the regular stops on any tourist\u2019s agenda: \u00a0the Pont Neuf<\/strong> (New Bridge) which is ironically Paris\u2019s oldest bridge, Notre Dame\u2019s flying buttresses and gargoyles, the elegant Palais du Justice<\/strong>, and the Place Dauphine<\/strong>, a residential park some lucky Parisians get to call home. \u00a0But for a savvy traveler in autumn, a trip to the island that is the epicenter of Paris is not complete without a stop at the March\u00e9 aux Fleurs at place Louis-L\u00e9pine<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This flower market is the last of its kind in Paris and it caters to dedicated gardeners and casual flower-lovers alike. \u00a0In fall, browse through jewel-toned blooms that will bring sunshine to any room or garden. \u00a0If you happen to be visiting the March\u00e9 on a Sunday, you will find the blooms sharing space with brightly-colored caged birds. \u00a0No matter what day you visit the flower market, you are sure to leave with a smile on your face.<\/p>\n
