Other Paris neighborhoods worth knowing
- Le MaraisThe 3rd and 4th arrondissements — central, walkable, packed with restaurants and design shops. The default 'Paris feels like Paris' stay.
- Saint-Germain-des-PrésThe 6th arrondissement — Left Bank, literary cafes, art galleries, expensive. The classic Paris of films.
- Latin QuarterThe 5th arrondissement — Sorbonne, Panthéon, narrow medieval streets. Tourist-heavy but real.
- MontmartreThe 18th arrondissement — Sacré-Cœur, hilly cobblestones, the postcard view of Paris from up top. A village inside the city.
- BastilleThe 11th arrondissement — younger, livelier, where Parisians actually go out. Less polished than Marais, more honest.
