Lingering over pain au chocolat in a sidewalk café, relaxing after a day of strolling along the Seine and marveling at icons like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe… the perfect Paris experience combines leisure and liveliness with enough time to savor both an exquisite meal and exhibits at the Louvre. Awaken your spirit at Notre Dame, bargain hunt at the Marché aux Puces de Montreuil or for goodies at the Marché Biologique Raspail, then cap it all off with a risqué show at the Moulin Rouge.

If you can find a walking tour, this is a part of town where it is worth it. Otherwise find a good guide book that takes you through the area which is a little village on the edge of the city. It would be great to live here. Recently some great street art has emerged.

Situated on the Left Bank of the River Seine, it is home to Paris's principal Asian community, the Quartier Asiatique, located in the southeast of the arrondissement in an area that contains many high-rise apartment buildings. The neighborhood features a high concentration of ethnic Chinese and Vietnamese businesses. The 13th arrondissement also hosts the Bibliothèque François Mitterrand and the newly built business district of Paris Rive Gauche.

We stayed in the 13 arr. in an apartment. The village within Paris was very special! It had an artist colon and included Chinatown. It also included a patisserie which was voted to have the best baguette in all of Paris! AND it was "right on " with that vote!
