Pont Alexandre III

Beautiful bridge with nice views, where you can take great photos. The bridge has some statues very well constructed, from baroque style. I recommend you to visit this bridge if you are at Paris.

One of the most beautiful bridges in Paris Pont Alexandre III is absolutely stunning — a must-see when visiting Paris. The architecture and detail are incredible, with its elegant lamps, golden statues, and breathtaking views of the Seine. It’s also a perfect spot for photos, especially with the Eiffel Tower in the background. Whether you’re walking across during the day or going underneath it with a boat, this bridge captures the charm and grandeur of Paris perfectly.

One of those Parisian icons you just can’t miss. Paris in a crazy sense is a frustrating city because every time you turn your head, you see something more beautiful than next thing. But then all of that is dominated by the Eiffel Tower. But this bridge is a close rival. Every time we cross it, we see something new.

One of the most beautiful bridges in Paris — richly decorated with golden statues, ornate lamps, and breathtaking views of the Seine, the Eiffel Tower, and Les Invalides. Both by day and at night, it’s a magical place for a stroll and perfect for photos. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ — A must-see Paris landmark full of charm and elegance.

One of several landmarks in Paris. It is also a very beautiful bridge distinctly with arc and decor. Rows of lamp posts along the bridge illuminated at night to appeal to visitors by boats on the Seine River underneath and land visitors crossing the bridge. There are sculptures at the ends of the bridge. Excellent vista point that offers beautiful view of Seine River or near by building like Grand Palace or Petite Palace.

Beautiful and ornate bridge, one of the landmarks of Paris, you can see the Eiffel Tower in the distance. Golden statues decorate the famous bridge, impressing visitors with its grandeur and marvellous architecture.

An interesting bridge, quite pleasant to look at — especially the decorative columns topped with gilded statues. The overall design feels elegant and makes for great photos, particularly at sunset. A nice spot to admire Parisian architecture.

Pont Alexandre III is another beautiful landmark in Paris. The bridge itself is a masterpiece, full of stunning sculptures and elegant details that make it feel like walking through art. It’s just great to stand there, enjoy the view of the Seine and the surrounding monuments, and take in the atmosphere. Whether during the day with the sunlight on the golden statues or at night when the bridge is beautifully lit, it’s definitely worth visiting

Beautiful ornate bridge spanning the Seine on the Quai d'Orsay that is a must visit when in Paris. Pinch yourself to make sure you're NOT in a dream!

It's crowded, and the bus stop station got really busy on a Sunday evening around 6pm. We had to wait for like 5 buses to pass us. Other than that, the bridge is a great photo spot :)

5 Stars for the most beautully decorated bridge! Extrodinare in a city filled with over the top opulance. I was fortunate to have perfect fall weather for an evening strole.

Pont Alexandre III is the most beautiful bridge across the Seine. It connects the Invalides and the Grand Palais and Petit Palais. It was opened in 1900 for the World Fair. The four ends have a golden sculptures of horses with wings. There are beautiful Art Nouveau lamps and pretty sculptures. You can see the Eiffel Tower. Visit at night for beautiful lights. The bridge is named after Czar Alexander III. The czar's son Nicholas II, laid the bridge's foundation in 1896. The design is Beaux Arts and Art Nouveau, what they mean by the Belle Époque in Paris.

A viewpoint bridge. Lots of tourists stop by here to take pictures of it or on it. Very architectural looking. It connects Eiffel Tower and Invalides. The bridge is right by the Grand Palais. Very famous bridge.

Pont Alexandre III is my favorite bridge of the 37 bridges that span the Seine river in Paris. This exquisite bridge is the most elaborately and elegantly decorated bridge in Paris. Pont Alexandre III is designed in the theatrical Beaux-Arts style architecture, with 19th century lamps, golden cherubs, nymphs and winged horses. The bridge was built for the Exposition Universelle of 1900 and named after the Russian Tsar, Alexander III. Pont Alexandre III has appeared in many films: Anastasia, James Bond: A View to a Kill, A Very Long Engagement, Midnight in Paris, and Me Before You. The infamous bridge has also appeared in several music videos. Pont Alexandre III links Les Invalides, the site of Napoleon's tomb, on the left bank with the Champs-Élysées on the right bank. The views of the Eiffel Tower makes this bridge an excellent spot for photographs. As you stroll along the bridge note all of the grand sculptures and pillars along the bridge.

The Location: Metro #15, Exit "Champs Elysees Clemenceau" Beautiful bridge next to Grand Palais. Love the gold statues, so elegant!! Beautiful view to take pictures on the bridge. There are a few museums nearby. Definitely can spend a few hours there.

Famous for how ornate it is, Pont Alexandre III is a beautiful sight to see, no matter the time of day! We came in the night time, so luckily not many people were around. It was so relaxing being here and just taking the beautiful sights in.

This bridge is a sight to see. I loved how the statues on the tall columns are well kept with their gold coloring and there are a lot of sidewalks space in order to walk around and take pictures of the river, Eiffel Tower, and other backdrops of Paris. An easy walk there and you won't regret it!

The Pont Alexandre III is probably the most stunning bridge in Paris. It's gorgeous by day, but it's especially gorgeous by night. The way that the elegant lamps light up and the way the golden decorations shimmer is absolutely beautiful. Best of all, it's completely free! :) Also, if you go at night, you can see the crazy, lovely spider webs between the railings. Amazing.

Okay, I'm not sure why this bridge seems to appear on a lot of the guides, since it is basically just a bridge that crosses the Sienne. Well, it could be like the London Bridge (not the Tower Bridge), which was the original bridge over the Thames, however I'm not going to speculate all that much about that. However, it is a bridge, and it does look rather nice. Mind you, we didn't cross it, but since it makes an appearance on Google Maps (as well as other sites) I though it might be worth having a look at, and a wander around. However, it doesn't take all that long to look at, and afterwards went of to see something else (namely the Invalides).

Truly the world's most ornate bridge! Even along the beautiful Siene banks, Pont Alexandre III still stands out as an unparalleled beauty with literally every inch is adorned with art. As the link between the Grand+Petit Palais and Les Invalides, the bridge is hard to miss on your sightseeing journey, but nonetheless, Pont Alexandre III alone is definitely worth going out of your way to see! While Pont Neuf is a timeless beauty as Paris's oldest bridge, Pont Alexandre III exemplified Paris's neoclassic beauty. Both are certainly the bridges that are must-see within the City of Lights!

Pont Alexandre is a gorgeous bridge located right in the heart of Paris. This bridge has beautiful architecture and fantastic gold accents that just beg for photographs. Standing in the middle of the bridge provides a great vantage points of the north, east, south and west of Paris. It also provides fantastic views of the Seine River along with both banks.

One of the most beautiful bridges in the world. Certainly worth a walk by when visiting Paris. The gold statutes are beautiful. Everything about this bridge across the Seine is gorgeous!

Anyone who knows me, knows that I'm a total ho-bag for a good bridge. And Le Pont Alexandre III is one of my all-time favourites. During our Parisienne adventures, the Mr and I took a long, leisurely walk along the Seine - and I practically (ok, actually literally) squealed when I saw the gold pegasus' (which adorn the supporting pilars) glint in the evening sun. This bridge is just stunning - wrought iron, single arched, accented with old fashioned lamp-posts, and highlighted by 4 huge pillars with winged horses to protect it. There's also sculptures, basically sitting on the bridge at the midway point. On the Quai D'Orsay side of the bridge, you'll find the Grand Palais and Avenue Cygnie which are well worth checking out. You also get a great view of Southern Paris and the Eiffel Tower from here.

Super awesome! This is mentioned as one of the most ornate bridges in France and it is. Tons of people are always taking pictures and rightfully so. This is also by Grand Palais and Les Invalides. It is very well decorated and a very famous spot to take pictures.

We came here a few times. But in particular to take engagement photos. The Alexandre III bridge is one of be most ornate. Quite beautiful.

This was, by far, our most favorite bridge on our recent trip to Paris. It's simply beautiful during the day, but really comes alive at night when the lights come on! Great place for a romantic walk with your special someone!

Definitely a Gorgeous Spot for some Amazing Pics, not only from up above on the bridge. Go down the steps on either side and you'll discover a million other vantage points, including a Saweeeeeeeeeeet tunnel, under the bridge that opens up another million different vantage points to shoot most all on which have backdrop views of The Eiffel Tower. A must see when in Paris.

The Best! There are a lot of bridges in Paris (37 to be precise), and many of them are quite beautiful. This one is my favorite.

My favourite bridge in Paris, which is saying a lot! The gold leaf is stunning. On one side you have a beautiful view of Tour Eiffel. If you visit Les Invalides, the bridge is across from it. You can't miss it because it has the gold leaf decorations on the statues in front of the entrance, too.

This is one of my favorite places in all of Paris. The bridge itself is beautiful and is easy to access from my apartment. I also love the vibe on the quai with all the bars, cafes, people exercising, picnicking and just enjoying life. I bring all my out of town friends here. especially when it's warm. You can also view the Eiffel Tower from the bridge!

Great under-bridge atmosphere, but you'll pay dearly.

One of several bridges that span the Seine, this is one of the most ornate in style. On one side of the river is Les Invalides and on the other is the Grand Palais (and the Petite Palais). The bridge was built for the 1900 Exposition and its anchored on its for points by four gilded bronze Pegasus figurines.

Some may consider Pont Alexandre III as simply a bridge, but I felt that it is more than that - it is about as artistic and decorated as a bridge can ever be. With the multitude of bronze statues on either side of the bridge, I am surprised not that many people hunt this location down to take photos - I certainly used up a segment of my memory card on this! The fact that even the lamp posts are to some degree decorated further makes this bridge stand out. To those who really have not dropped by, take a look at the photos other reviewers have uploaded, they provide a good idea of what is on offer. What's more, the bridge is easy to reach, simply get off at Invalides and you are right opposite it.

The most beautiful bridge from Paris in my opinion. A great view and everything becomes magical on this bridge maybe because of the gold and the light that is transmited. You can go to the Invalides or to The Arc of Triumph or you can pass it and go downstairs for a nice walk along The Seine.
