It's possible to live in the countryside without leaving Paris! Discover the La Campagne district of Paris, in the 20th arrondissement!

Fancy a trip to the countryside without leaving Paris? We've got just what you're looking for: the Campagne district of Paris. From the name alone, you can imagine the beauty and calm of the place.

The district was inaugurated in 1926. Originally, it was built to accommodate low-income families and other Parisian workers, to make it easier for them to buy their own homes. Today, this attractive development of 92 one- and two-storey townhouses is no longer really aimed at the same socio-professional category.

Located on the outskirts of Paris, just before the noisy Porte de Bagnolet, La Campagne à Paris is a dream come true for Parisians in search of greenery: pleasant little cobbled streets, brick houses covered with ivy, wisteria and roses, flower gardens, very few cars and therefore very little noise... An elegant and unusual country dream.

The houses are built in a variety of architectural styles (Alsatian with half-timbering and pointed roofs, London, some with balconies), giving the whole an enormous amount of charm.

A lovely bucolic stroll for your next weekend in the streets of Paris!
