The area

Address

Neighborhood: Place d'Italie / Quartier Asiatique

Far off the beaten path, this part of Paris is a forgotten gem worth exploring. Avenue d’Ivry houses Europe's largest Chinatown with great Asian supermarkets and shops, and a thrilling atmosphere around Chinese New Year. Place d’Italie impresses onlookers as soon as they set their eyes on it. Not far, around La Butte aux Cailles, the streets suddenly imitate provincial France and you’ll feel like you’ve been transported. The beauty of these streets lies in their surprises around every twist and turn.

Focal point
One of the many focal points of this sprawling city. Busy traffic roundabout. Shopping centre to one quarter and neon-lit cafes on the others. It does seem a quiet neighbourhood though as shown by my 3 night stay.

Crossroads, Mix of Old and New
A huge traffic circle and crossroads, where the 5th and the 13th come together. A fountain, some landscaping, a large Metro station underground, lots of big cafes arround. One of Paris's few skyscraper neighborhoods is adjacent. A mix of the very old and the very new.

Nice area to stay for a Paris visit
The area and surroundings were clean, and felt safe. There were a lot of quaint cafes and a nice variety of restaurants within walking distance of our hotel. The public transportation is easy to navigate and allows you to get around reasonably without breaking the bank on cabs/uber rides.

Lovely arrisement of Paris

Aug 2018 • Couples

We stayed in this area, for 6 days. First visit to Paris. Travelled by RER train then metro. Was simple enough!
Lots of cafes, bars and restaurants and 3 ( or more) metro stations that easily take you into central Paris, Eiffel Tower etc.
Eating in Paris is not cheap! A bottle of red is €25-45 and most mains start at €16
The metro ticket machines only accepted cards or coins and one ticket is €1.80
Wear comfy shoes - lots of walking in Paris!!

Crossroads

Jun 2022

It's a crossroads with lots of big avenues coming together above ground and lots of Metro lines coming together underground. Also the site of a big movie theater and lots of pleasant cafes. Cool neighborhoods all around. We were here for Butte Aux Cailles.

Without the slightest interest in my eyes...

Jan 2024 • Couples

A place without the slightest interest in my eyes except, perhaps, as a starting point for visiting the 13th. There is a world of difference between the photos in tourist guides and reality.
