Arriving in Paris by train

Paris can be reached by train in a matter of hours from elsewhere in France and all major European cities. All 9 stations bring you right into the heart of the city. They are situated in different areas of Paris relating to the destinations that the trains serve, and are well connected to the public transport network (metro, RER, bus).
  
Make sure you don’t forget to validate your rail tickets by punching them in the orange machines located in the concourse and in front of the platforms.
