perfect seat...
Square Gabriel Pierné
Named after the early 20th century
composer Gabriel Pierné, this
pocket-sized park is truly one of
the sweetest little corners of Paris.
The benches are in the shape
of open books and are nestled
under the shade of stunning
cherry blossoms whose petals float
around your feet in spring. Corner
of rue Mazarine and rue de Seine,
Saint-Germain-des-Prés quarter,
6th arrondissement.
Pia’s book, Paris: Made by hand (The Little Bookroom, $24.95) is available here
