"Les bouquinistes," or second-hand booksellers, line the banks of the Seine, stretching from Notre Dame to Pont Neuf. If you're on the hunt for vintage postcards, fun artistic prints, or some classic French novels (often available in an array of languages), be sure to stroll by and browse these little green stalls.
What to read: You'll have a hard time finding these books at a bouquiniste, but throw a copy of Jojo Moyes's Paris For One or Julia Child's My Life in France in your bag for this little excursion — they're charming, heart-warming, and perfect for reading by the river on a sunny afternoon.
