RECOMMENDED NEIGHBORHOODS
- Le Marais (3rd / 4th)Medieval lanes, queer-friendly, design boutiques
- Saint-Germain (6th)Classic literary Paris, cafés, galleries
- Canal Saint-Martin (10th)Younger, indie, canal-side bistros
- Montmartre (18th)Hilltop village, Sacré-Cœur, busy by day
SAFETY NOTES
- 01Pickpockets work Métro line 1, the Eiffel Tower lawn, Sacré-Cœur steps, and the Louvre queue. The 'gold ring' and 'petition' scams are still everywhere.
- 02Avoid the Châtelet–Les Halles RER interchange late at night.
- 03Gare du Nord and the surrounding 10th can feel rough after dark — take a taxi or Uber.
- 04Smoking is banned in most outdoor terraces of restaurants? No — the opposite: smoking on terrasses is the norm.
