The 9th arrondissement of Paris: A district of note

Published 2022-06-06
The ninth arrondissement may as well be two districts. There’s playful Pigalle to the north, where you can find everything from cool bars to sex shops… And then to the south is the famous Palais Garnier Opera House and the Printemps and Lafayette department stores.

We’ve just spent a full day in the district as part of the “Paris Countdown”, here’s what we found.

To see more, find all the addresses, and listen to the podcast episode on the ninth, click here: theearfultower.com/2022/06/06/guide-to-the-9th-arr…

Music: A Pres Maxson version of Place Pigalle by Maurice Chevalier.

    So great you were able to sneak into the gated community. Go! Oliver! I just finished The Only Street in Paris. I'm behind on your countdown, but catching up this weekend. You two are giving me great ideas for our mid-September visit! Teri
