Marais Through the Centuries: Paris Self-Guided Walking Tour
Overview
Find out how this medieval district fell and then flourished into a cultural hub on this self-guided audio tour. Experience the magic of GPS playback on this immersive stroll through Paris’ Marais district.
Paris’ Marais district was once a serene landscape of wetlands and, later, lush orchards and vineyards. It saw the rise and fall of kingdoms and its people’s resilience before emerging as a cultural nucleus. On this walking tour by writer Lily Heise, you‘ll travel through Marais‘ narrow streets and elegant squares and discover how the district has been reinvented numerous times over the centuries. You‘ll learn how layers of stories have laid the foundation for the magnetic spirit that now permeates through this neighbourhood, filled with historic buildings, museums, shops and art galleries.
You‘ll go home with a better understanding of how the Marais refused to succumb to time‘s relentless march. Immerse yourself in tales of triumph, tragedy, and the timeless allure of the Marais.
