The 60-acre Luxembourg Gardens is one of the largest parks in Paris and a favorite among local Parisians. It has a romantic history, too. King Henri IV built his beloved, homesick wife, Marie de Medici, a fountain in the Luxembourg Gardens to remind her of her life in Florence, Italy. Since 1625, this sculpture of passion, tucked away in secluded area of the Luxembourg Gardens, has been a favorite spot for lovers. Walk hand-in-hand and admire the manicured gardens and elaborate statues in the Luxembourg Gardens. Then, duck into the lush, private grotto holding the Medici Fountain to contemplate eternal love.

The Ponts des Arts is a pedestrian bridge across the Seine river with a panoramic view over medieval Paris. This small bridge connects the Institute de France on the Left Bank with the main central square, Cour Carree, of the Louvre Museum. The beauty of the Seine flowing underfoot, the quiet of an area devoid of traffic and the symmetry of the buildings surrounding the bridge on all sides has inspired musicians, writers and painters to immortalize this spot in literature, art, movies and songs. Bring your own champagne, arrive at sunset and toast to an evening of romance.
