    Elegantly spanning The Seine and linking some of Paris's most popular spots, the Pont Alexandre III is widely regarded as Paris's most striking and grandiose bridge, as well as one of the most beautiful river crossings in the world.
    In the show, the bridge forms one of the Emily In Paris locations and serves as the iconic backdrop for the controversial perfume ad, where the model walks down it undressed while the gazes of a line of men in suits follow her as she goes. 💃🏼

    3. L'Atelier des Lumières

    emily in paris filming locations L'Atelier des Lumières
    This is definitely one of our favorite scenes in the series! The digital exhibition that Emily, Gabriel, and Camille visited in one of the Emily In Paris filming locations is the stunning L'Atelier des Lumières, a digital art space that presents classic pieces in immersive formats, just like the one we saw in the series featuring Vincent Von Gogh's Starry Night artwork. 🎨

    Unfortunately, the exhibition changes from time to time and it isn't guaranteed that you would be able to watch the same Van Gogh exhibition. Tickets also get sold out pretty fast, so if you're unlucky in this location, you can check out some hop-on hop-off tours where you can easily get to a number of Emily in Paris locations! This Tootbus Paris Hop-On Hop-Off Tour has an Emily in Paris self-guided audio tour that you can easily access with their app.

    Fun fact: the restaurant even rolled out a new dish in tribute to the show - fans who visit Terra Nera can dig into "Tagliata di manzo Emily", a sliced beef tenderloin served with arugula, cheese shavings, and vinegar sauce. 🤤 We hope it'll still be on the menu when we visit!

    6. Rue de l'Abreuvoir

    emily in paris filming locations prettiest street in paris
    In the show, Mindy introduces Emily to "the prettiest street in Paris" after a fun night out. This street looked pretty in the series but is even prettier in real life. We didn't manage to catch a clear look in the series as the scene was filmed at night, but the street is extremely picturesque in the daylight.
