Many locals and travelers consider Pont Alexandre III the most beautiful Paris bridge. It features Art Nouveau decoration consisting of lamps, cherubs, winged horses (Pegasus), and other ornamentation. From the bridge, you can take photos of the Eiffel Tower, Les Invalides (a structure with a gilded cupola), Grand Palais, and Petit Palais.
Alexandre III Bridge was built between 1896 and 1900. Named after the father of the last Russian emperor (Nicolas II Romanov), it honored the Franco-Russian alliance forged by the end of the 19th century to counter the increasing German threat. Among other decorations, you can examine allegorical representations of the Seine and the Neva (major French and Russian rivers), sciences, arts, etc.
