The Pont Neuf and the Cite

Guess my surprise when i saw that for VT, the Ile de la Cite, the historical administrative heart of Paris has a different location than the rest of the city.

Anyway, the island is so rich and offers so much to see, than i have decided to take this opportunity to build a separate page for it.

Judge by yourself, on the Ile de la Cite are :
- Notre Dame
- Sainte Chapelle
- Conciergerie
- Hotel Dieu (with its Hospitel)
- Palais de Justice
- Quai des Orfevres
- Flowers and birds market
.....
and - not to forget - the Pont Neuf
