The city of lights has many landmarks that it’s famous for, and the crowds of tourists usually gravitate towards the most popular ones. But if you want to experience Paris in a different, more relaxed way, as well as avoid waiting in neverending lines for the Louvre or the Eiffel Tower, you can take a detour and still see some of the more hidden gems the city has to offer. 

Shakespeare & Company bookstore and café

Located at 37 Rue de la Bûcherie and filled to the brim with literary classics as well as a variety of newly published books, this bookstore is an absolute must-see for every book lover. The trademark dark green exterior is hard to miss, and the cozy interior invites you to spend hours casually browsing books, with a cup of your favorite coffee or tea in hand. 

Le Petit Moulin

This little cafe is located in Montmartre, very close to the famous Moulin Rouge, but what makes this place particularly charming is the fact that it was used as the set of the movie Amelie. For fans of the movie, being here can be a surreal experience, but even for casual visitors, it is a great space to rest after hours of walking and sightseeing.

The Wall of love

This giant wall, composed of blue enameled lava tiles on which the phrase “I love you” is written 311 times in 250 languages, is a little harder to locate, but if you step into the Jehan Rictus garden square in Montmartre, you’ll be sure to find it. The mural was created in 2000 by the French artist Fédéric Baron, and it is the perfect spot for picture-taking, especially if you’re visiting it with your loved one.

If you’d rather learn about the catacombs then climb the Eiffel Tower, these dark and mysterious locations may be right up your street. Here’s the morbid and eerie side of Paris.

Museum of Vampires and Legendary Creatures

This unique museum in Les Lilas was opened by Jaques Sirgent, a specialist in the macabre. He opened the museum in dedication to his research on vampires and folklore. Don’t be deterred by the creepy looking entrance. You’re in the right place.

Catacombes de Paris

The Catacombs of Paris contain miles of tunnels stacked with human bones from millions of Parisians. It is a place to learn about the darker past of the romantic city of Paris.

The Room of Endangered and Extinct Species

This unusual museum holds 257 rare specimens and offers a glimpse into the many species that are on the verge of extinction.

The Gravestone Courtyard

Head to l’Île de la Cité where you can observe the Medieval gothic courtyard. The nearest metro stop is “Metro Cite” on the 4.

The Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital

Parisian women of the 1700s were often labeled as “hysterical” and were dumped in this inhumane hospital. It was once an asylum to hide female outcasts from the rest of society.
