The Basics

The 9th arrondissement—one of 20 in the city, each with its own character and charm—is best explored on foot. District walking tours tend to focus on the unique art nouveau architecture and typically involve a stop at the 19th-century Palais Garnier, one of the most famous opera houses in the world. For evening fun, catch a cabaret show in Pigalle, the former red-light district of Paris.

The district boasts more hotels than any other in Paris, so it is a great basecamp for exploring the rest of the city.
