Uncover hidden passages
While tourists and locals may flock some of Paris’ more urban streets, it is also home to a number of 19th century covered passages.
These winding laneways are remnants of the post-revolution rise of the middle-class in France.
Less than 30 of the passages still remain, but intrepid travellers can take a peek at the surviving streets.
A long line of passages still stretches from Passage Vivienne, behind the Palais Royal, northbound to the rue Cadet, where they end.
Amongst the passages are nestled tiny galleries, small shops, as well as a number of bistros and brasseries.
