"Autumn is one of the loveliest seasons for strolling in Paris, when golden leaves and soft sunlight seem to turn each walk into a small work of art. It truly is the time of the year to slow down, take a detour and follow your inner flâneur or flâneuse. We've drawn together five walks to capture that spirit, each blending Paris's art, history and natural beauty into a scene worthy of an Impressionist canvas."
"In autumn, the garden seems to glow from within as the leaves turn honey-gold. Then, it's only a short walk along Rue de Rivoli leads to another royal masterpiece, the Jardin des Tuileries, stretching grandly between the Louvre and Place de la Concorde. Designed in the 16th century for Catherine de' Medici, it became the first public park in Paris. It's the perfect place for strolling and admiring the changing seasons."
Five autumn walks in Paris invite slow, artful strolling through golden trees, museum visits and cafés. Routes balance formal gardens, historic streets and small museums, allowing flexible pacing for short outings or full days. One route begins in the Jardin du Palais Royal, passes along Rue de Rivoli to the Jardin des Tuileries and reaches the Musée de l'Orangerie to view Monet's Water Lilies alongside Impressionist and early 20th-century works. The walks highlight how changing light and fallen leaves transform urban scenes into painterly compositions. Favorite stops include green chairs by fountains, arcaded walkways and cozy cafés for warming up.
