The Pont Neuf is the oldest standing bridge across the river Seine and therefore it's a Parisian symbol for locals. In the summertime locals usually go down the stairs and sit by La Seine whilst enjoying a good bottle of wine.
Travellers should visit it because it's one of the most important monuments in the city. If you love French films, don't hesitate to recall love drama "Les Amants du Pont Neuf" (1991), the love story between a street artist and a homeless man.
Take a picture of Paris from the middle of the bridge.
