Romantic walk in Le Marais
Le Marais was a center of high culture, with the Jewish quarter also located there. Now is a vibrant neighbourhood, full of elegant cafes, restaurants and ateliers. We start our route from the house of Victor Hugo and the Place des Vosges, which is the oldest planned square in Paris. Now full with hotels, It was very fashionable and expensive to live there in the 17th century. Next stop is the Carnavalet museum, a historic mansion of the 16th century with a very nice yard. Enter if you want to learn more about the Parisian history, Napoleon and the Belle Epoque era. Les Marais is the home of one of the best falafel you could try. L'As du Falafel has always a long queue, but the falafel wrap will make it up for you. We now walk towards the always busy, Les Philosophes, a great and historic french bistro with outdoor seating. The wine list is endless and you can have an affordable lunch there. Now that we got some rest at Les Philosophes, we are ready to visit the Centre Pompidou. Once you've seen the works of Henri Matisse, Andre Derain & many more, head to the top floor to admire the breathtaking view from the Pompidou Centre roof terrace. Finally, a great way to close the day with a cocktail at the Le Perchoir roof terrace. The view is very romantic, as you enjoy your cocktails by looking at the Parisian grey roofs.
