You do it all the time, everywhere, and especially anywhere. Selfies are great, but in cool places they are even better. So if we can't change your face, at least we'll beautify the background... Here is a top list of the best places to take a selfie.

The most hidden

Le Très Particulier

The Hôtel Particulier de Montmartre is already a gem in itself. But if you pass through the big entrance door, go down a few steps to the hotel bar, Le Très Particulier. With its red armchairs, multi-colored lights illuminating the place, and its unique outdoor patio in Paris, it's the perfect spot for an incognito selfie.

Le Très Particulier 23, avenue Junot - 18e

The most artsy

Rue Dénomez

If you can't take a selfie in front of the Eiffel Tower (for obvious reasons), aim for something more exotic by posing in front of your smartphone on Rue Denoyez in Belleville. You can't miss the entire walls dressed in street art. It's up to you to choose the ones you find more aesthetic and press the button... And bam, a artsy selfie saved!

Rue Dénoyez - 20th

The most exotic

The Albert-Kahn Garden

If you want to make your friends believe that you are in Kyoto, we have the perfect spot. The Albert-Kahn Garden offers lush flora and a perfect sense of escape. If you wander around a bit, you will find a Japanese temple, among other things! In spring, the garden offers visitors blooming cherry blossom trees...

Jardin Albert-Kahn 10-14, rue du Port - 92100 Boulogne-Billancourt

The most vintage

Delyan

For a selfie in a vintage setting, head to Delyan Café: vintage photos on the walls, dusty books, plush armchairs, and big wooden tables... To perfect this retro scene, take a picture of a homemade pastry in your mouth - your stomach and your phone will thank you!

Delyan 8, rue Saint-Martin - 4th arrondissement

The most aerial

On the rooftop of the Louxor

" I looove taking selfies at the Louxor bar ". Climb on the rooftop of the legendary cinema, the Louxor, for a selfie with the Boulevard Barbès, the elevated metro, Tati, and the Sacré-Cœur in the background. Cheap and chic in one photo... Are you cheap or chic?

The Louxor 170, boulevard de Magenta - 10th arrondissement

The wettest

The swimming pool of the Bains Douches

Maybe it will be open, maybe not... We never know in advance if we will be able to enjoy the pool at the Bains Douches before dIt would be silly to miss the opportunity when she's there. So when she is, quickly take off your clothes, grab your phone, and voila! A perfect wet hair selfie!

The naughtiest

In front of "L'Origine du monde" at the Musée d'Orsay

Ok, ok, we know. Photos are not allowed in the museum.But you can definitely bend the rules for the famous masterpiece by Gustave Courbet. Taking a selfie in front of the world's most famous vagina is definitely worth spending a little fifteen minutes at the Museum d'Orsay's security center.

The most conceptual

The toilets of the Royal Monceau

If you can't afford a suite at the Royal Monceau hotel, just borrow their toilets instead, you won't be disappointed: in the lobby, all the walls are covered in mirrors. A well-placed, self-referential selfie that you'll proudly show to your friends.

Royal Monceau Hotel 37, Hoche Avenue - 8th

The most bohemian

Clichy-Batignolles Park

With the swans, on the little wooden bridge, the children's playgrounds or lying on a bench, Batignolles Park offers quite cool selfie spots. You have plenty of choices, but whatever you choose, the bohemian and tranquil atmosphere of the park will surely please you.

Parc Clichy-Batignolles 147, rue Cardinet - 17th arrondissement

The tallest

From the Observatory of the Sorbonne

To have the chance to hang out at the Observatory of the Sorbonne, you need to be well informed and sign up for one of the visits. This spot, as unique as it is unusual, offers an incredible view of the capital. And that's because it's from here that astronomers observe and have observed the Parisian sky... Just look at it.

The most romantic

On the Ourcq Canal

Imagine this: you rent an electric boat without a license from Marin d'Eau Douce and embark on a mini-cruise on the Ourcq Canal... To seal your newfound love, a kiss and a selfie on the water, and voilà!

Canal de l'Ourcq - 19th

The funniest

At the Grévin Museum with failed statues

While some statues are partially successful, others are completely messed up. For a selfie that's out of the ordinary, strike a pose next to the worst fails at the Grévin Museum: Lady Gaga, Laetitia Casta or Omar Sy... These are just recommendations, it's up to you to choose which one is the funniest. After all, it's your selfie!
