Located inside a triangle of beautiful townhouses on the edge of the Île de la Cité, Place Dauphine is a gorgeous public square in one of the most prestigious locations in Paris. Created by King Henri IV in 1609 as a royal garden, this tiny plaza is situated between Pont Neuf and the Palais de Justice. It is a charming outdoor place that is rich with history and overloaded with ambiance away from the hustle and bustle of busy city life. In this public square, you can indulge in your favorite pastime, like grab a cup of coffee or a glass of wine at the restaurant or learn how to play pétanque.

This gem in the City of Love is lined with typical Parisian buildings, cafes, art galleries, and cobblestone streets.

Therefore, Place Dauphine is not large, but its unique size and being away from the city setting adds to the charm of the place.
