A Quick Tour Of Paris - North By Northeast
We finish our quick tour of Paris with a visit to the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth districts in the northern and northeastern part of the city. The 18th arrondissement of northern Paris is located on the Right Bank of the Seine River. The distinctive Moulin Rouge (Red Mill or windmill) is among the world's best-known nightclubs or to use the French term, cabaret. Josephine Baker, Frank Sinatra, Mistinguett, and Edith Piaf and numerous other famous entertainers regularly played the Moulin Rouge. This historic cabaret, perhaps the site where striptease was born, was immortalized in paintings by Toulouse Lautrec and to a lesser extent by two films nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award.
Butte Montmartre is a hill not far from the Moulin Rouge. Its natural beauty and height have attracted religious ceremonies since time immemorial. The area itself was the site of the first Paris Commune insurrection in 1870-1871. In 1873 Paris city council expropriated land at the summit of Montmartre for the construction of the Basilica. While the foundation stone was laid in 1875 the church finally opened for services in 1891. Go to the top of the dome for a spectacular panoramic view of Paris, which lies mostly to the south. The church and its surroundings have often starred in films, most recently the 2001 movie Amelie. You may want to take the funicular (cable-car) to get to the top of the hill. From the late Nineteenth Century until the end of World War One Montmartre was home to the artists and their milieu. Among those who hung their hats there were Salvador Dalí, Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso and Vincent van Gogh. You won't have trouble finding many museums including the Musee de l'erotisme in nearby Pigalle. Montmartre also boasts a functioning vineyard.
The 19th arrondissement of northeastern Paris is home to the Canal Saint-Denis and the Canal de l'Ourcq. This district is fairly residential and is not visited by loads of tourists. In other words, by spending some time there you may get an idea of the real Paris, one less expensive than the touristy arrondissements. The Parc des Buttes Chaumont contains many lovely features including English and Chinese gardens, a waterfall, and several cliffs and bridges. It has been called the most romantic park in Paris.
What can be less romantic than a slaughterhouse? Designating Villette as a slaughterhouse is like saying the Empire State Building is a skyscraper. It once employed over three thousand people but has now been transformed into Paris's largest park with attractions for people of all ages including the biggest science museum in Europe.
The major attraction of the 20th arrondissement is the Pere-Lachaise Cemetery, named for the confessor to Louis XIV. It is the largest cemetery is Paris and frankly one of the best-known cemeteries in the world. The Mur des Federes (Communards' Wall) is also located in the Pere-Lachaise Cemetery. This marks the spot where 147 Communards were shot in May 1871 effectively ending the Paris Commune. Belleville which means beautiful town is a Parisian working-class neighborhood situated mostly in the 20th and 19th arrondissements with a bit of overflow into the 10th and 11th. It's a colorful area and home to a large Chinese community. Tuesdays and Fridays you'll find farmers from the region selling their wares in an outdoor market on Belleville Boulevard. Many artists now live and work in this district. Legend has it that the incomparable singer Edith Piaf was born under a lamppost on the Rue de Belleville.
