Amongst all the squares of Paris, the Place des Vosges is one of my favourites. Situated in the Marais, not far from the Place de la Bastille, the square is coming back to life with the coming of Spring. I spent a morning on the Place des Vosges on a sunny day, here are a few photos!

 

A Morning on the Place des Vosges

This morning I was on a mission to take photos of a few little things in the Marais and thought it would be an excellent idea to sit down in the square’s garden for a quick lunch (we say in French ‘manger sur le pouce‘). The square appears so much different from Winter with its fresh new leaves. Marvelling at this historic square of Paris, I feel so privileged to be here… I took a series of photos this morning at Place des Vosges. Enjoy!
