  • Viaduct des Arts!
    Some people say it has been there for quite a while now, but somehow I never noticed it! Starting from the Bastille area there are signs leading you to the Viaduct des Arts, and there's a marvellous garden path up on the former viaduct for a railway leading from Bastille to some Porte de V. The roses really do smell, and it's quite relaxing up there. If you're in the mood for something more commercial there are small businesses down in the viaducts arcades - out of the ordinary! Display of handycraft and artwork of the special kind.
