Église Saint-Eugène et Sainte-Cécile walks

This second section takes us to the old cabaret (Chez Patachou) where Georges Brassens performed in public for the first time. The walk through Montmartre, with its slopes, paths and stairways, is particularly pleasant (best done in the "low tourist season").

The ninth arrondissement of Paris is distinguished by its lively and central character. It has historical links to the world of entertainment, with numerous theatres, cinemas and concert halls. As a shopping district, it is home to department stores, boutiques and iconic covered arcades. It blends Haussmann-style architecture with more recent buildings, whilst remaining a residential area.After the first two arrondissements, the ninth has the least amount of green space. These are mainly local, much-frequented gardens that play an important social role. The area as a whole reflects an old urban fabric, not particularly conducive to the creation of large natural spaces.

From Place de l'Opéra to Les Halles, via the Church of Notre-Dame de Lorette and the Palais Royal Gardens, this urban trail explores the1st,2nd and9th arrondissements of Paris in search of animal representations.

A journey through Haussmannian Paris, discovering the architecture of the second half of the 19th century, with a detour to Parc Monceau and a few sites celebrating Franco-American friendship.

This is an immersion in a historic district of Paris that was largely untouched by Haussmann's urban renewal and has retained many narrow streets, with architecture still dominated by 17th-century mansions. The suggested itinerary winds its way through narrow streets and gardens, allowing you to discover a rich heritage, including the Carreau du Temple, the Hôtel du Grand Veneur, the gardens of the National Archives, the Place des Vosges and the Hôtel Sully.

A long urban trail on the theme of sundials and sites related to astronomy scattered throughout Paris: the Paris meridian, observatories, gnomons, etc. Best done on a sunny day so you can read the time along the way! The sundials are often high up, sometimes hidden by trees that have grown... you may have to search hard to find them.

This urban route focuses on the heart of Paris, in a neighbourhood rich in world-famous museums, exploring depictions of animals. In the Tuileries Garden, these are particularly numerous and offer a conflicting view of the animal world, undoubtedly that of their time.

The 10th arrondissement of Paris is characterised by a working-class, cosmopolitan and very lively atmosphere, marked by the presence of the Gare du Nord and Gare de l’Est stations. A densely populated area, it mainly offers small local green spaces. The largest gardens have often been created on former historic, railway or industrial sites, such as the Jardin Villemin or the Square Alban-Satragne. The Canal Saint-Martin, for its part, plays a major role by providing a green promenade and a central hub for socialising. Finally, there are a dozen community gardens and examples of community greening: tree bases and micro-gardens.

Although the title of this hike evokes a route commonly used by protest marches in Paris, the route itself avoids the main roads and favours the narrow streets and passageways where many workshops were once located.

The sixth arrondissement of Paris is emblematic of Parisian elegance. A chic neighbourhood with legendary cafés, it has historical links to writers, philosophers and artists. It is as renowned for its intellectual heritage as it is for its architectural heritage, with its museums, art galleries and prestigious cultural institutions. It boasts a dozen public squares and municipal gardens, including the famous Jardin du Luxembourg, which is managed by the state and will not be discussed here.
