For those in the know, Paris is an endless source of hidden corners to explore. But how do you think outside the box when you’re not familiar with Paris? In this article, I’ve selected ten places that only true Parisians know about!<\/p>\n

Once a railway track that went all around Paris, the Petite Ceinture was created during the Second Empire by the Baron Haussmann to allow the transportation of goods and passengers.<\/p>\n

It is in a way the ancestor of the metro, and it was left when it was put into circulation.<\/p>\n

Today, the largest part of the Petite Ceinture is abandoned and closed to the public.<\/p>\n

Nature reclaimed its rights but three sections are open to the public and form a walk that seems out of Paris and out of time. You can also discover fauna and flora that are quite incredible for the place!<\/p>\n
