I’m Pushan, a travel and food photographer based here in Paris. I'm currently standing at Trocadero one of
the most iconic views of the Eiffel Tower right behind me. Thousands of proposals happen right here, but if
you're looking for something a little different follow me for my top three romantic places in the city.
So here we are at my favorite park in the entire city - Le Buchemont. This is one of Parisian's favorite parks,
and if you want to get a local vibe definitely come here for a picnic on a Sunday.

and, in my opinion, one of the most romantic. A few years ago actually one of my really close friends from
college got engaged right on those stairs there. We had a guitar. we had a crowd. I filmed the whole thing she
said yes. It was a beautiful moment!
