Location
Located right next to Place de la Bastille and Bastille Opéra, métro Bastille gives you access to the very convenient lines 1, 8 and 5 (direct to Gare du Nord). Just around the corner you’ll find Place des Vosges where you are within a five-minute walk to the heart of the old Marais’ most famous streets: Rue des Francs Bourgeois and Rue Vieille du Temple. From there meander down the cobbled streets surrounded by 17th century architecture and of course the wonderful original boutiques, world famous delis “Chez Goldenberg” and many other restaurants and bars. The night life in the Marais is very lively.
You are also close to the Musée Picasso, Musée Carnavalet, Archives Nationales, and the Musée Cognacq Jay. Walking a little further away you reach the river Seine and Place de l’Hotel de Ville and veering towards the Left bank you go past the Cathedral de Notre Dame, Ile St Louis and Ile de la Cite while walking north takes you to the Pompidou Center.
Reaching Bastille from the airport is very simple as is coming from the Eurostar at Gare du Nord.
