Beautiful independant Cinema recently restaured hiding a rooftop bar. If you ask nicely you can access the bar without having to buy a ticket to movie and enjoy the view on one of the most dynamic avenues of the city. Mosaic lovers will enjoy.

Paris, unlike London, Brooklyn and err Chester, isn’t famed for its zoo. That’s because there isn’t anything quite as big here, but if its quality as opposed to size you’re looking for then the zoo in the Jardin des Plantes won’t leave you disappointed. There are about 1800 animals here, a third of which are endangered species, like the Amur leopard, pictured. The reptile house has big snakes and snap-happy crocodiles. There are even kangaroos and some other animals you wouldn’t have thought hardy enough to adapt to the cold chill of the Paris winters. The only drawback is the monkey house, which is a rather forlorn place with depressed-looking chimpanzees and gorillas gazing through shit-stained glass cages.

The typical bistro in the heart of Belleville. Warmfull place where a bunch of people meet : a delicious mix in an easy going ambiance.
