Wander the Butte-aux-Cailles, a hilltop pocket of Paris that dodged Haussmann's grand makeover. Stroll narrow, low-rise streets lined with street art, then settle into one of the neighborhood's bars or bistros for an easygoing evening.
Reasons to go
Full description
Butte-aux-Cailles escaped Haussmann's 19th-century redevelopment of Paris, preserving a network of narrow, low-rise streets that feel distinct from the grand boulevards elsewhere in the city. It's become a lively spot for an evening out, with a concentration of bars and bistros alongside street art and a historic public pool.
