14 Off-the-Beaten-Path Things to See in Paris (Updated 2025)

"I walked the almost 5 km tree-lined walkway along the old Vincennes railway line from Bastille to the edge of Paris and loved the trees, flowers, ponds and many places to sit; it was long, easy and beautiful, often pleasantly empty even on nice days, and I personally think it's even nicer than New York's High Line (it was, until the High Line was built, the only elevated park in the world)." - Matthew Kepnes
