The Pont Neuf is considered to be the oldest stone bridge in Paris. Henri IV ordered it to be constructed in 1578. Twelve arches, 384 ‘mascarons’ or grotesque faces decorating the cornices and the equestrian statue of Henri IV, the first to be placed on a public thoroughfare, make the bridge instantly recognizable. Consisting of two spans, the bridge connects the Musée du Louvre, Rue de Rivoli and the Tour Saint-Jacques on the Right Bank with the Rue Dauphine, the Monnaie de Paris and Saint-Germain-des-Prés on the Left Bank via the Ile de la Cité, the starting point for a tour of Notre Dame Cathedral and the Sainte-Chapelle.

It's a beautiful bridge. On one side you can see the Eiffel Tower (from far) and on the other side you can see the beautiful architecture of the Apex court of France.

Wonderful to stroll across in the evening. Take a moment, stop and look out over the river, the city, the lights...while hugging your most loved.

Pont Neuf is one of the historical bridges across Seine River in the city of Paris. They say it is the oldest bridge of Paris however it still serves as an important connectivity for traffic with a good number of vehicles using it everyday. Located at a central place, you can see many important tourist locations of Paris from this bridge.

Lovely bridge featuring statues. The gardens associated are also worth a visit.

I like bridges. There were many bridges in Paris. The number is well above 30, and I liked this one the best. According to Google, it is the oldest bridge in Paris.
