Pont Alexandre III is an arch bridge that spans the Seine, connecting the Champs-Élysées quarter and the Invalides and Eiffel Tower Quarter, regarded by many as one of the prettiest in Paris.

The bridge, with its exuberant Art Nouveau lamps, cherubs, nymphs and winged horses at either end, was built between 1896 and 1900. It was named after Tsar Alexander III (father of Nicholas II) of Russia. It was Nicholas II who laid the foundation stone in October 1896. The style of the bridge reflects that of the Grand Palais, to which it leads on the right bank.

On the top of the Musee d’Orsay, there is a cafe behind this giant clockwork. Don’t forget Orsay was a railwail station before to become a museum.

After a drink you can get out, turn left and then discover the most famous painting of the 19th century. I mean the impressionist.
Van Gogh, Renoir, Manet, Cezanne, Monet, Pissaro, Sisley and at the end of the gallery, Degas and his unforgettable statue of a dancer of fourteen.

By the exit, there is another clockwork, same as the first one. You can see Paris through the glass of the face.

This new year starts on a classical view of the Moulin rouge, the most famous cabaret in the world.

Best wishes for 2007.
