ARRONDISSEMENTS

Many people hang out in front of Pompidou and the surrounding area in the evening. There are countless restaurants and shops. It is pleasant to stroll around this vibrant neighborhood . 

Paris is divided into 20 arrondissements. Beginning at the center of the city, they are laid out in the form of a clockwise spiral. It looks like a snail. I know. Do you see their obsession toward escargots now?

The Right Bank refers to all the arrondissements north of the River Seine, and the Left Bank covers those south of the river.
