Paris. The city of lights, and my favorite city to date. I could walk the romantic streets of Paris all day and all night. Every turn takes you down streets lined with cafes and bakeries. Every time you look up you are in front of some of the best architecture in the world. The smells of fresh baked bread, and the sounds of the French frantically speaking! The list goes on! One of my favorite districts in Paris, situated between the third and fourth arrondissements is Le Marais (“The Marsh”). If you’re lucky enough to find yourself visiting Le Marais, then you’re lucky enough! The reasons to fall in love with Marais are aplenty. Sites, bites, and cordials. But don’t just take my word for it; decide for yourself. Is Le Marais the best district Paris has to offer?
