A popular district where trendy addresses have been multiplying for a number of years, Paris's 20th arrondissement is a popular spot for Parisians. Home to an active population both day and night, the 20th arrondissement is built around lively thoroughfares such as Boulevard de Belleville, where one of Paris's biggest open-air markets is held every week, offering fresh produce of all kinds.
A veritable green lung in the heart of an urban environment, Belleville Park offers a breath of fresh air and a breathtaking view of Paris and its surroundings. The ideal place to relax on a bench or climb the steps 4 by 4 to keep fit!
In fact, there isn't just one 20th arrondissement, but several: you can have a good time in the affordable bars of Ménilmontant, venture into the Père Lachaise cemetery where some of the most famous personalities are buried, go hunting for street art and get a change of scenery and culture at the Villa de l'Ermitage.
And for those with a rumbling tummy, numerous restaurants open their doors to delight both sweet and savoury eaters. Need help finding your way around? Follow our recommendations!
