This area is great for walking around and has probably the best feel for an active living area. Lots of great restaurants and shops. Place des Vosges is a beautiful square park and is on fat feast of area and is good place to start your visit and then walk back towards Louvre area.

Walking in this neighbourhood is my favourite thing-to-do in Paris! One of the oldest neighbourhood with lovely art and coffee shops and museums!

Marais is the place to be and be seen in Paris. Very centrally located, clean, excellent cafes, luxury and vintage shopps, Le Marais is the Mecca for luxury travellers.

Stayed here when found reasonably priced typically French hotel. Lovely to wonder lots of people watching and so much eating n drinking choice
