This is one of the most picturesque areas of the heart of the city. Rue Montorgueil's charm of markets, restaurants, bars and trendy boutiques is the area's strongest appeal - many a gem can be found from a wander down a quiet alley.

This neighbourhood is also right next to all the key Paris highlights, the Louvre, Tuileries Gardens, the Royal Palace, Forum des Halles and Saint Eustache. Don't forget Rue Montmartre, Place des Victoires and the boulevard Poissonnière, all of which combine to make the perfect walking area through authentic local Paris. Discover as well, the lesser-visited but still appealing spots: heater-museum Capucines Fragonard for the history of perfume, the Notre-Dame-des-Victoires, the National Library, the Opera Comique - Place Boieldieu just to name a few.

Enjoy un vin on the terrasses or a coffe in Place Edouard VII, a true haven of peace.
