The 11th arrondissement located in Paris on the right bank, is a very popular district, less touristy than the average Parisian district, more residential, but with a large number of shops and restaurants. It is a lively district because it is also a trendy and festive district with bars all along the long Oberkampf Street, especially busy during weekends. The 11th arrondissement is also equipped with essential sites for tourists: Place de la Bastille, famous since the famous 14th July 1789, Place de la République and its very popular atmosphere, Rue du Faubourg Saint-Antoine and the numerous furniture stores but also trendy bars. Finally, the 11th arrondissement is also home to many shops at low prices as well as many restaurants offering French or world cuisine at really fair prices, not to mention the many 3 and 4 star hotels which target rather an average budget clientele.

What to visit Paris?

When to go to Paris?

It goes without saying that Paris is alive all year round, but if you're aiming for a particular activity or event, you'll need to choose your time of year. Here are some tips on when to visit Paris.

High tourist season: from May to September, tourists flock in great numbers. This is when the weather is the best and many festivals and events take place, such as Roland Garros or the Fête de la Musique. Note that in August, Parisians desert the city to go on vacation, which gives a strange atmosphere. Many shops are closed and only the tourist centers are animated. The Christmas period is also very popular, especially for the illuminations and the animated windows of the department stores.

Mid-season: in October-November and from March to April, tourism slows down slightly, but not the number of visitors. Indeed, Paris is a dense city and there are almost always people in the transport and in the attractions.

Low tourist season: there is not really one, except in January and February, when hotel rates drop slightly. Paris attracts tourists all the time!
