Hot summer dance nights in Paris

Just as May flowers begin busily blooming and evenings begin to turn warm, the banks of the Seine come alive every evening as an impromptu outdoor dance hall. It’s one more reason to love Paris as a romantic and cultural mecca. From sunset until midnight, dancers of all ages swirl, salsa, sashay and shimmy within the confines of four small stone amphitheaters on the Quai Saint Bernard while the river flows past. The good news: it’s free! What could be more ideal for dance lovers? Ah, to dance the night away (for free), just steps away from the Notre Dame Cathedral, caressed by the balmy Parisian nights… is the pinnacle of romance.
