What to do and see in Bastille, Ile-de-France: The Best Things to do
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.

This disused railway line in the 12th arrondissement has been turned into a 4.5 km long tree-lined path meandering through buildings and providing a green oasis. It is difficult to find the start at the Jardin Charles Peguy end as this is at street level and there are some dingy tunnels to make your way through. We caught the Metro and got off at Porte Doree and wandered along several streets till we asked a local to pint us in the right direction. Once on the pathway, you can walk at your own pace and it ends at the Viaduc des Arts (opposite the Gare de Lyon train station). Well worth an afternoon visit

My advice would be to buy a bit of everything - such affordable, high quality food! We bought a lot of french food: baguette, hot crepes, kouign amann, cheese, cured meat, rotisserie chicken, fresh fruit; and also some turkish style pastries and portuguese custard tarts. I'd say it was some of the best food we've had (in each of those categories). I'd happily go back again next time I'm in Paris.

This sleek auditorium, opened in 1989, is the site of ballet and opera performances.

I bought tickets for the production of La Traviata on December 20, 2018. Arrived to find our seats on the orchestra 3rd row center. A wonderful venue but a contemporary motif. If you are looking for a classical opera house, the Opera Garnier might be more your cup of tea. The acoustics were perfect and the performance did not disappoint. The performers had strong, well trained voices. Orchestra accompaniment was solid and professional.!The play lasted a total of about 3.5 hours with just over 2 hours of performance and two intermissions. As should be the performance was in Italian. French and English subtitles were provided on screens over and beside the stage. These screens in no way blocked or interfered with the Opera. Along with my Christmas Market visits, this was the highlight of my trip.
