Island of the City

Ile de la Cite, Île de la Cité
France, Paris
The Ile de la Cité is located in the center of Paris, in the historical part of it. It is one of two islands on the Seine River. It is connected to the Ile Saint-Louis and the banks of the Seine by nine bridges. The Ile de la Cité is always filled with tourists, because it is here that the most famous Parisian sights are located - Notre Dame Cathedral, Conciergerie Castle< /a>, Saint-Chapelle and more.

The history of the island of Cite dates back to ancient times, when the Celtic tribe of the Parisians settled here. Then the island was actively developed and rebuilt until the 19th century, until a significant part of the buildings was demolished by the decree of Baron Osman. Currently, only about thirty residential buildings remain on the island.

I will not go into history, because everyone knows that the famous and beloved by many Paris originates from here. The Island of the City is washed on all sides by the Seine and is connected by nine bridges to the rest of the city. This is one of the most popular tourist spots. It houses unique architectural structures that reflect the great history of France: Notre Dame Cathedral, the Crypt of the Notre Dame porch, the Palace of Justice, the Sainte-Chapelle Chapel, the Conciergerie Castle and many interesting things: the small and cozy Place Dauphine and the house in which the famous chansonnier of the 20th century lived -Yves Montand, the statue of the most loving king of France-Henry IV, Ver-Galane square, Hotel-Dieu, Kilometer Zero, Memorial to the victims of deportation, bird and flower markets, etc.
