 Paris is not just any city, it’s a mosaic of villages and neighbourhoods, each one with its own special identity, quite different from the others. You’ll soon fall under the spell of the contours, features and particular character of each one. Depending on your mood and taste, choose the Paris that appeals to you using our presentation of the principal Parisian districts. You’ll find details of the places mentioned in our information pages and a full description of everything each of these neighbourhoods has to offer in the guidebook Paris for you, published annually in French and in English by the Paris Convention and Visitors Bureau. It is distributed free of charge in all our welcome centres.
Village Paris
 Montmartre, Sacré Cœur, Pigalle, Trinité
Experience all the charm of small Parisian neighbourhoods, from Montmartre to Batignolles: from Paris on high, roguish or romantic, to Paris with its church steeples, conjuring up provincial French villages.
Montmartre and its surrounding districts are certainly one of the most diverse parts of Paris. Crowds around Sacré-Cœur and the place du Tertre mingle with locals on café terraces in place des Abbesses, whilst those on the boulevards merge with shoppers   visiting the bazaars and sex shops in Pigalle, beneath the impassive gaze of the Moulin de la Galette windmill. But venture a little further afield, towards the Trinité church or the Batignolles park, and you’ll be rewarded with the peace and tranquillity of the area’s charming backwaters: wonderful, little-known museums, a handful of renowned theatres and unexpected village squares beneath church steeples, far from the hum of the city. A stimulating experience, provided you let your senses be your guide…
