Get a Fresh Look on Paris, come and hike in the 13th arrondissement an area (in the south-east of the city) that is at the crossroads of different aspects of Paris. Here is a sample of what you will discover, see or do during the hike.
A 19th century village (right there in the middle of Paris)...
Green parks and lush gardens...
and the loveliest small houses, all created for the working-class families (long gone today) at the beginning of the last century...
The Little Asia of Paris...
which has a very distinct feel to it, with its shops, surpermakets and restaurants where you can enjoy cuisine from Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, China... Did you know that Paris had the largest Asian community of all European capitals?
Street Art (almost) everywhere...
dispatched here and there, you will see tags, graffiti and monumental murals by French and international artists (such as the collective Lézarts de la Bièvre, Seth, Misstic, Jeff Aérosol, Tristan Eaton, Bordalo II, Pantonio....)
Impressive modern architecture...
to be discovered while walking through new quarters of the city. Paris continues to grow offering an opportunity (as it did in the past) for ambitious architcts to show off... these new pieces of architecture leave no one indifferrent!
Have a drink by the water...
the best way to end the hike... on the banks of the river Seine which are transformed into the Paris beach (Paris Plage) every summer!
Can't wait? Join the hike now!
