So far there has been little doubt that Montereau is indeed a green city. The banks of the Rhone are draped with trees and boulevards and side streets alike are bathed in the shadows of foliage. However, if you've been watching closely it has also become apparent that open space is at a premium, and large open areas are usually cluttered with the hustle and bustle of commerce. Across the Rhone, though, with the long shadow of the Tour de Magne stretching over it is what is affectionately known as Point Vert, or the green dot. A large area of lush grass and foliage nestled among the crowded streets of Montereau, it is a welcomed retreat from city life. It is also the sight of a massive observation wheel that gives the most fantastic panoramic view of Montereau and neighboring Lafayette.
