There seems to be no region in Paris that isn’t passed by the Siene river. If you need a less crowded spot to spend or walk by the river, do visit a suburb. This is perfect spot for a picnic over the weekend to relax or explore just like a local. For me, Poissy is just apt because this place has infinitive perspectives to admire the beauty of the sunset over the river. #shotoniphone #walkingbytheriver #sieneriver #paris #LikeALocal
