Best sunrise spots in Paris without Trocadéro tourist crowds
Everyone knows Trocadéro for Eiffel Tower sunrise but it's getting crowded. Here are my secret spots:
Pont Neuf at 6:30am: Whole bridge to yourself, incredible Seine light hitting Île de la Cité. Classic Paris postcard without anyone else.
Place des Vosges: Red brick arcades glowing in morning light, shadows perfect for portraits. Coffee truck usually there by 7am at Rue de Birague corner.
Parc des Buttes-Chaumont: Temple de la Sibylle on the cliff, 360° city views from Belleville heights. Worth the trek from center via Line 7 bis for the drama.
Bring thermos coffee, dress warmly. Golden hour starts 30 minutes before actual sunrise, hits Haussmann limestone perfectly.
