"I VISITED THIS PLACE"...
... because it's a great place- the center of Paris. I loved walking onto and exploring the island. I walked pat the (closed) Cathedral of Notre Dame several times, visited the Memorial to the Deportation and its adjacent park and went inside Saint- Chapelle and the Conciergerie. I also crossed many of its bridges.

Three bridges cross the island. There is also a pathway that runs the length of the island. We did not visit it, but only viewed it from the top of the Eiffel Tower.Written 26 September 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
