Removals to France - Introducing Paris
Paris, the capital of France is made up of 20 Arrondisements or villages, which joined together over time. Although now one big city, each of these villages brought with it a personal sense of style and individuality, together with its own traditions and history. These subtle differences in culture are still quite evident today.
The Inner City
Arrondisements 1-11 form the inner circle of Paris and contain many of the tourist attractions of the city. Among the many attractions that central Paris has to offer are:
Arr 1 - Palais du Louvre - This is the geographical centre of Paris and a tourist Mecca.
Arr 2 - Bourse de Paris - The French Stock Exchange - This is the business quarter of Paris.
Arr 3 - Musee Picasso - Arrondisement three is one of the oldest neighbourhoods in Paris. Many 17th century mansions still exist in this more peaceful area of the city.
Arr 4 - Cathedrale Notre-Dame - This is a lively neighbourhood with an alternative lifestyle scene, lots of trendy bars, shops, and restaurants.
Arr 5 - Quartier Latin (Latin Quarter) - This neighbourhood has a small village feel, where students mix with professionals in its quaint winding streets.
Arr 6 - ecole Nationale des Beaux-Arts - Once a bohemian hangout for intellectuals, this neighbourhood is now newly chic with classy boutiques, art galleries and restaurants in abundance.
Arr 7 - Eiffel Tower - This is a very wealthy neighbourhood with a distinctly international flavour.
Arr 8 - Champs-elysees - Arrondisement eight is an area famous for its shopping. Here tourism and business exist in perfect harmony.
Arr 9 - Quartier de l'Opera - This diverse residential area is popular among artists.
Arr 10 - Gare du Nord - A multi-cultural, quite bohemian area.
Arr 11 - Opera, Bastille - This is a primarily residential area.
The beautiful river Seine runs through central Paris dividing it in two. On the banks of the river in Arrondisements 1, 4 and 8 on the North side and 5, 6 and 7 on the South side you will find cafes, restaurants and every kind of entertainment. All year round, Parisians and tourists flock here to mingle, eat and drink al-fresco whilst admiring the sights and sounds of the city.
