Synonymous with Paris' bohemian and artistic life, Montmartre is a must-visit area on our romantic tour. Its winding, flower-lined streets, cozy restaurants and cafes, and friendly atmosphere will enchant you, reminding you of scenes from the movie 'Amélie' (2001).

While wandering through Montmartre, make sure to stroll down this lesser-known street, brimming with charm with its colorful houses and flower-filled gardens. It's the perfect spot to escape the city's hustle and bustle (and sneak a romantic moment).

Nestled in the Bois de Boulogne, this magnificent garden is famous for its rose collection, boasting about 1,100 varieties that offer a burst of color and fragrance in spring and summer.

In the 8th arrondissement, Parc Monceau is a haven of peace and elegance. Built in the 18th century in an Anglo-Chinese style, it's considered the "chicest" of Parisian parks. Its architecture and greenery inspired the French artist Claude Monet, who painted it six times.

Set up in 1633, this French-style garden is a historically rich site in the heart of Paris. The Jardin du Palais-Royal features flower beds, several fountains, and sculptures, providing a lovely setting for a hand-in-hand walk. Before entering the garden, pause in the Palais Royal's Cour d'Honneur to admire the Buren Columns, a well-known art piece in the capital.

Let's head to the 14th arrondissement to wander down Rue des Thermopyles. Full of charm and poetry, you'll adore this cobblestone street for its colorful facades, wooden shutters, and buildings adorned with climbing plants.

Strolling along the Seine's banks is a classic Parisian activity. Follow the river's edge to traverse Paris from east to west, passing by the capital's most beautiful monuments. What could be more romantic?

Dedicated to the French sculptor Auguste Rodin, this museum is one of the best in Paris. Its exterior is also highly appreciated by visitors for its elegance. With its shaded walkways, pond, and green spaces dotted with sculptures, the garden is a picturesque extension of the museum itself!

If you have a heartfelt declaration to make to your loved one, now's the time to take them to the 'Wall of Love.' Located in the square Jehan-Rictus (18th arrondissement), this mural features 311 "I love you"s written in 250 languages and dialects.

(Psst... Square Jehan-Rictus is undergoing a renovation but reopens April 13, 2024!)

In the Marais district, the Carnavalet Museum is dedicated to the history of Paris. Sprinkled with artistic sculptures, shrubs, and flowers, its garden is a pleasant spot, ideal for taking a break on one of its benches during the day.

What place could be more suited to romance than the Museum of Romantic Life? Located in the Scheffer-Renan hotel, the former residence of Dutch painter Ary Scheffer, this museum immerses us in the Romantic era of the 19th century. It features an interior garden (pictured), a true oasis of peace, where you can enjoy pastries and a cup of tea.

The quintessential symbol of the City of Love is, of course, its emblem, the Eiffel Tower. Each year, the Iron Lady witnesses numerous marriage proposals and first kisses, shy or passionate. To fully enjoy the romantic atmosphere emanating from the Eiffel Tower, settle down in front of it on the Champ de Mars lawn. At the foot of its 1,063 feet, time seems to stand still.

The Luxembourg Gardens is one of Parisians' favorite parks. Wander through its sculptures and flowerbeds before taking a moment to rest in one of its famous green chairs. In the photo, the Medici Fountain, built around 1630, evokes the spirit of the Italian Renaissance.

Located at the top of the Île du Belvédère in the Parc des Buttes-Chaumont (19th arrondissement), the Temple of the Sibyl is a perfect retreat for lovers. You'll appreciate its architecture, inspired by the Temple of Vesta in Tivoli (Italy), as well as the stunning view it offers over the city.
