Itinerary

The visit will be a walk that will aim to discover some covered passages and some secret streets of the capital. We will start with the 10th arrondissement of Paris at the Porte Saint Denis. This is an opportunity to see another image of Paris, behind monuments such as the arch , there is a real student and popular life. The different passages such as the Prado, Brady or the small stables show us a significant social and cultural diversity in the capital. We will then go to the main boulevards. Commercial and festive places par excellence thanks to the presence of large cinema such as Rex , department store ( Lafayette) and theater. Some covered passages located on these roads we will testify to the Paris of the beautiful era: Verdeau, Jouffroy and Panorama gives us the Impression of reliving the 19th century in Paris. Finally we will advance to the district level of the stock exchange. Here finance and intellectual life mix, the big banks adjoin the Richelieu library, the oldest and one of the most beautiful in Paris that we will visit. Our visit will then end at the Louvre.
