Viaduc des Arts

Walking along the shady walkway, I found the sign of Viaduc Des Arts (Art Bridge Commercial Corridor). (When I came here, roadside paintings and sculptures appeared frequently, and the atmosphere of art became stronger and stronger.) Down the viaduct, see some shops - "Leroy Merlin, La Grande Recre, etc.

Art Bridge Business Corridor is 4 km long in the Malkay & De Alig area. There are many craftsmen and crafts shops under the old elevated railway line. There are many joggers here. Near Bell Air Force subway station, you can start from the Bastille.

Si vous voulez prendre un pause de la vie de la ville occupée, vous pouvez vous engager dans la Viaduct des Arts. Passez la ligne de train à un kilomètre et regardez Paris d'un angle tout à fait différent ou alternativement, vous pouvez faire un navigateur dans les anciens vaults convertis en dessous de la ligne de chemin de fer qui offrent maintenant des espaces d'exposition, des ateliers et des galeries. Un grand moyen de apprécier la culture française sans la râpe et la bousille.

Amazing ateliers (workshops) of French artisans making anything from hats, to hand-painted bone china, to umbrellas. I liked to walk the Promenade Plantee above the shops and restaurants in one direction and shop in the other. Makes for a lovely stroll.

Beneath La Promenade Plantee, the elevated park built on a old railway track, is an old viaduct, which has been transformed into Viaduc des Arts. Each arch now hosts a creative shop from furniture makers to art galleries. It was all lit up for holidays, so it was especially pretty.
