Paris’ 15th arrondissement is known to be a peaceful and quiet neighborhood and also the largest of the city. It is located on the Left-bank of the river Seine and is the most populated with around 238 000 inhabitants.
This district covers 4 administrative quarters: Saint-Lambert, Necker, Grenelle, Javel.
If you want to experience one of the most beautiful, original and symbolic spots of Paris, this arrondissement won’t fail you.
Hidden treasures
Paris’ 15th arrondissement covers many architectural master pieces representing the beauty of France’s history. If you thought that the Eiffel Tower was the only famous monument in Paris then go to Pont de Grenelle and down the stairs you will see the Statue of Liberty.
Indeed, it was given to the United-States as a gift by French architects. However, a smaller version was built under the Pont de Grenelle, at the very beginning of the magical stroll of the Île des Cygnes.
On the other side, behind the famous “Pont de Bir-Hakeïm” shown in “Inception”, is located “La France Renaissante” created by Holger Wederkinch. This is a perfect spot to take amazing pictures of the magical scenery of Paris.
When the time stops
We already mentioned the “Île des Cygnes” before, however, this magical place is worth being mentioned twice. Just imagine strolling down an alley of trees surrounded by the river Seine and facing the magnificent Eiffel Tower. This spot is perfect to have a peaceful and quiet day, take a bowl of fresh air and artistic pictures of Paris.
If you want to experience the beauty of a moment when the time stops in Paris, then you should go to the André Citroën park and take a hot-air balloon trip to the sky. The first hot-air balloon of Paris is located in the very heart of the 15-hectare green space and allows you to experience the beauty of the city in a whole different way.
