for lovers of leisurely walks :

If you want to wander round the 9th arrondissement, go to the Nouvelle-Athènes neighbourhood. With its authentic little streets such as the Rue Rodier, Rue Milton, the Cité Charles-Godon, you will get your first idea of Montmartre. All these roads are quiet and maintain the image of a small village. The rest of the 9th arrondissement will let you wander round big lively boulevards, where the melting-pot reigns.

for lovers of culture :

The 9th arrondissement offers relatively few museums and other cultural resources. In the neighbourhood of the big boulevards you can, however, find the Musée Grévin, where a large number of celebrities have their double in wax. Greatly loved by children!

In this same neighbourhood, you can find the Musée de l'Opéra and the library, which teaches you the history of the Palais Garnier, with famous ballet costumes, and photos and paintings entirely devoted to dancing.

You can visit two museums in the Nouvelle-Athènes neighbourhood: the Musée de la Vie Romantique, which will let you discover or rediscover the great Romantic artists with temporary exhibitions. And the Musée Gustave Moreau, which offers a testimony of his works of art.

for lovers of shopping :

The 9th arrondissement is a source of joy for you, as you can dream in front of well-stocked and decorated windows of shops all around Boulevard Haussman. The biggest department stores of the capital have all set up here: Le Bon Marché, La Samaritaine, Le Printemps and Galeries Lafayette.

And, if you prefer cheaper shops, the Barbès neighbourhood is for you, especially with its imposing Tati.

To remember: The Department Stores / Le Boulevard Haussman / Le Moulin Rouge / Chez Michou / Les Folies Bergères / Barbès / La Nouvelle-Athènes / Le musée Grévin.
