19° arrondissement( dix-neuvième) 

6.786 km​2
Turistic points:

- Parc de la Villette, the​ ​Museum of Science and Industry 


- La Géode​, one of the most interesting buildings in Paris. Resembling a giant mirror ball, this sphere 
is covered with more than six thousand stainless steel triangles that reflect images of the 
surrounding environment. Inside the theater, the giant hemisphere-shaped movie screen is made up 
of many perforated aluminum panels and measures more than 80 feet in diameter. 
- The​ ​Cité de la Musique​ in the 19th arrondissement ​Parc de la Villette ​(location of the largest meat 
market in France ) contains concert halls, a media library, and the Museum of Music, which houses 
one of the largest collections of musical instruments in the world. 
- Sitting in both the 19th and 20th arrondissements,​ ​Buttes-Chaumont Park​ was a former limestone 
quarry that was transformed into a sprawling, Romantic-period park in the 19th century. 
- is the last remaining lift-bridge in Paris. Right next to this bridge is an arched pedestrian bridge, 
and from there you get a great view of the lifting action. In 2010 ​Pont Crimée​ was completely 
renovated and got a​ ​new lifting roadbed​, manufactured elsewhere and floated down the Canal de 
l'Ourcq.  
 
Pace of life: 
- cultural hub, especially with the new ​Philharmonie de Paris​ music complex.  
- 185,000 of them live here, and it's one of a few arrondissements where the numbers continue to 
rise. It's at its population peak right now. Compare that to the 7th Arrondissement, which reached 
its peak in 1954 and whose population has dropped 30% since then.  
- Why does this section of Paris have such cute little houses? It seems that, like Buttes Chaumont, 
this area was the site of gypsum mines. Once the gypsum was mined out, the ground was left poked 
with holes and tunnels — a situation that wouldn't support heavier buildings.  
- Characterized as unsafe by visitors that came to this area. Htere are people asking for “money”, 
and they also mentioned drunk and heroine high mans on the street appearing to be probably 
waiting for something. 
- Although it has many affordable places. 
- You will need a good reason to get into the 19. Since this is one way out, and it lacked the 
signature attractions of other neighborhoods. We went to visit the Buttes Chaumont and enjoyed 
the excursion, but there was a way. Highly residential houses with diverse neighborhoods and 
mixed ethnicities-both Arab and Jewish areas and Les Francais. 
 
 
19 ° arrondissement (dix-neuvième) 
6,786 km2 
Points Turistic: 
 
- Parc de la Villette, musée des sciences et de l'industrie 
- La Géode, cette sphère est recouverte de plus de six mille triangles en acier inoxydable qui 
reflètent des images de l'environnement environnant. À l’intérieur du théâtre, l’écran de cinéma en 
forme d’hémisphère géant est composé de nombreux panneaux en aluminium perforé et mesure 
plus de 80 pieds de diamètre. 
- La Cité de la musique du 19ème arrondissement Le parc de la Villette (lieu du plus grand marché 
de viande de France), qui abrite l'une des plus grandes collections d'instruments de musique au 
monde. . 
- Installé dans les 19ème et 20ème arrondissements, le parc des Buttes-Chaumont était une 
ancienne carrière de calcaire qui a été transformée au 19ème siècle en un vaste parc romantique. 
- est le dernier pont levant à Paris. Juste à côté de ce pont se trouve un pont piétonnier arqué, d'où 
vous avez une vue imprenable sur l'action de levage. En 2010, Pont Crimée a été entièrement 
rénové et a obtenu une nouvelle plate-forme élévatrice, fabriquée ailleurs et descendant le long du 
canal de l'Ourcq. 
 
Rythme de vie: 
- centre culturel, notamment avec le nouveau complexe musical Philharmonie de Paris. 
- 185 000 d'entre eux vivent ici, et c'est l'un des rares arrondissements où le nombre continue 
d'augmenter. C'est à son pic de population en ce moment. Comparez cela au 7ème arrondissement, 
qui a atteint son apogée en 1954 et dont la population a chuté de 30% depuis lors. 
- Pourquoi cette section de Paris a-t-elle de si jolies petites maisons? Il semble que, comme les 
Buttes Chaumont, cette zone était le site de mines de gypse. Une fois que le gypse a été extrait, le 
sol a été percé de trous et de tunnels - une situation qui ne supporterait pas les bâtiments plus 
lourds. 
- Caractérisé comme dangereux par les visiteurs venus dans cette région. Htere sont des gens qui 
demandent de l’argent, et ils ont aussi mentionné que des hommes ivre et héroïne dans la rue 
semblaient attendre quelque chose. 
 
 

20° arrondissement

- Easy to get to and from the subway. Very cosmopolitan and inexpensive for eats-no more than €12 
per seat for both of us. Also the house of the cemetery Père Lachaise, 
- It is the main restaurant and in some it would only say--tourist attraction is the huge Pere Lachaise 
cemetery, where numerous famous celebrities are buried. These include Frederic Chopin, Jim 
Morrison, Maria Callas, Oscar Wilde, runs Yves Montad, Balzac and the list up and up. 
-  
 
Pace of life: 
- Mostly working class, the district holds a variety of immigrant groups, including black Africans, 
Chinese and Thai cuisine 
- It is the home to the neighborhoods of Menilmontant and Belleville 
- Because living costs have always been cheaper here than central Paris, the area has attracted 
immigrants, refugees, and poorer people coming in from rural France
