Paris districts, Montmartre and Pigalle

Posted 1 year ago by patrick in response to avatar julia's question: Can someone tell me what districts of Paris are the most interesting for visiting? thank you. (give a different answer) .

Montmartre was known as the centre of bohemian lifestyle in Paris during late 19th to early 20th century, gathering important artists and writers. Picasso stayed from 1908 to 1912 at the Bateau Lavoir Studio located on 11 bis Emile Gondeau. These days, Montmartre still retains that artistic vibe. A few blocks south west from Montmartre starts the red light district, Pigalle, with lots of trendy nightclubs and cabarets.
