Over the weekend, the citizens of Paris breathed a little easier when much of the French capital went car-free for a day. The event was in part to mark the upcoming United Nations Conference on Climate Change, which will be held in Paris in November, but it also was for another very good reason - Paris is a very polluted city, even holding the distinction of having the worst air quality in the world for a brief period earlier this year. Residents and tourists enjoyed the fresh air with a day full of biking, walking, and yoga, and city officials are considering a permanent partial car ban to make Paris a more pedestrian-friendly, healthier city by 2020. If exploring the City of Light on foot or bike is on your bucket list, these dreamy photos of pedestrians taking over city streets will convince you to book a trip in time for the next Paris sans voiture event ASAP.
