If, like us, you feel like taking a little break away from the hustle and bustle of the city while staying in Paris, then you've come to the right place. Quiet, little-known, and hidden from view, let's explore 6 bucolic passages where you can stroll with the arrival of sunny days.


The neighborhood of La Mouzaïa

Head to the neighborhood of La Mouzaïa. Its cobblestone alleys and colorful little houses make it one of the cutest places in the capital! A small piece of countryside where one willingly gets lost on sunny days.

The square of Peupliers

The name of the square already announces the color. In this astonishing street in the 13th arrondissement, strangely different from its neighbor, rue de Tolbiac, greenery reigns. A kingdom preserved by a single cobblestone street, far from the crowds and honking horns where roses, jasmines, lilacs, wisterias, and other subjects of wonder reign...

The Fig Tree City

This beautiful flowered city was once a haven for metalworking workshops. It was home to the best blacksmiths, boilermakers, and gold beaters in the city. But the urbanization of the eastern suburbs of Paris has transformed this hidden street with a fig tree into a stylish dead-end, which now houses a press agency and trendy graphic designers.

The Santos-Dumont Passage

Hard to believe we are in the 15th arrondissement! This cute little alley is lined with houses and artists' workshops. Seriously, who doesn't dream of living in a peaceful street like this?

The City of Flowers

This delightful flower-lined cobblestone path, far from the hustle and bustle of Paris, offers an enchanting stroll that resembles a small countryside village. Perfect for walkers in search of bucolic landscapes, allow yourself to be carried away by the picturesque charm of the place, an isolated island to discover in the heart of the Épinettes neighborhood. For a little history, the owners were obliged to plant at least 3 trees in their garden at the time of the construction of this narrow alleyway in 1847.

The Floral City

The Floral City - not to be confused with The City of Flowers - is a true haven of peace amidst the buildings of the capital. Nestled in the heart of the 13th arrondissement, this micro-neighborhood with its small colorful houses, private gardens, and flower-filled balconies offers a calm and idyllic living environment for all its residents. And it's no coincidence that this corner of paradise is called the Floral City. The streets all bear names of flowers, such as Iris Street, Wisteria Street, and Orchid Street.
