(Last Update: 05.03.2024) There is a ring road surrounding Paris and this ring road is called Boulevard Péripherique, briefly Peripheral (peripheral or puerperal) and translated into Turkish Ring road We can translate it as . The importance of this ring road stems not only from the fact that it facilitates transportation, but also from the fact that it officially outlines the borders of Paris.
In other words, while Paris as we know it covers a much larger area, for Parisians it is real paris it remains within the periphery, and some Parisians are obsessed with living without stepping outside the periphery; because everywhere outside Boulevard Périphérique is called “banlieu”banliyö)”. It would be more accurate to say it would pass because Grand Paris With the implementation of the project, this issue will become a thing of the past; Maybe not immediately, but it will happen over time throughout history. why What is Arrondissement? You can find it in the article.
Therefore, you can visit our Paris with a surface area of 105 square kilometers It is much smaller than other world metropolises. Istanbul has 5.343 square kilometers and London has 1.572 square kilometers. If you consider that, you can better understand what I mean. Of course, Paris is a whole with its nearby suburbs, but since these suburbs are affiliated with different departments in official transactions, for example, vehicle license plates and postal codes differ.
As a result of years of work, Paris will be merged with three surrounding departments as of January 1, 2016. Grand Paris It was enlarged 7 times. Thus, it is aimed to create a brand new administrative structure; Because it can easily be seen that Paris was confined to a tiny area in the system that continued until that date...
The peripheral highway, the first section of which was completed in 1966 and turned into a highway surrounding Paris in 1973Since the day it was built, it has been a ring road that has made the lives of Parisians both easier and annoying :) As a tourist, you will generally spend your time in the periphery, so you will not feel the traffic problem in the city so closely. At best, the view you will encounter will be similar to the traffic jam on Bağdat Street or Nişantaşı.
However, once, many years ago, in the south of Paris Loire Valley Castles Tour My first peripheral experience, when we set out with a rental car to do this, was on a Friday evening, and I was shocked by the traffic scene I encountered while trying to get out of the city :) The roads are already chaotic, and on top of that Friday traffic I have to admit that I was looking forward to Istanbul's bridge traffic; In our country, at least you can get a breath of the Bosphorus when crossing the bridge, but we don't have that here :) Therefore, we recommend that you do not go out by car unless it is absolutely necessary. pasha pasha to the metro, RERI recommend you to take the , go from one place to another by public transportation… If you wish, Driving in Paris ve Parking in Paris You can read his articles.
Peripheral total A circle of 35 kilometers creates and 34 inputs/outputs available; each entry/exit point“staff” So it is called the door; already metro You will see the word "porte" a lot on maps; Stations with the word "porte" at the beginning should know that you It will take you to one end of the periphery.
Accommodation in Paris If you choose a place near the periphery when looking for a hotel, you may be disturbed by the noise, but if you rent a car and go out of town, it may be very convenient. Same way Buying or renting a house in Paris It may also be a determining factor.
Speaking of peripheral Inner Peripheral (périphérique interieur) and External Peripheral (périphérique exterieur) concepts can be mentioned. At first, I thought these were the names of the two ring roads surrounding Paris, but our funny french By inner peripheral, they mean the clockwise part of the Boulevard Périphérique, and by outer peripheral, they mean the counterclockwise flow of the same periphery :) So, one is used to describe traffic flowing to the right, and the other is used to describe traffic flowing to the left; The issue is actually that simple, but as I said, the French take great pleasure in complicating simple things :)
in the peripheral Speed Limit 70 km. Of course, there are speed control cameras everywhere. Sometimes there are warnings on the billboards that the speed limit should be lowered further in order to reduce air pollution, I recommend you to be careful about this. And before I forget; almost none along the periphery no safety lane; This causes the existing traffic to become much more disastrous in case of possible accidents and malfunctions.
The circle you see in black on the map in the cover photo of the article is Boulevard Périphérique, surrounding Paris; 20 of Paris boroughIt remains within this periphery. Zone 5-1 of the 2 zones used in the pricing application on the Paris transportation map is the section within this ring road..
Before I forget, west of Paris Forest of Boulogne and in the east Vincennes Forest It is considered inside Paris even though it is outside the periphery; I think they resorted to such a method to increase the average green area per capita...
There is also the A86 ring, which is located further outside; That is the subject of another article…
Pleasant trips, pleasant discoveries.

Best regards, Mr. Ahmet. I will come on the 28th. I learned something from your articles, but if you find some free time and can help me, it would be great to make sure. Even if you can't write, your information on the blog is great :) Thank you.
Hello, as I said, I am currently thousands of kilometers away in an environment with limited internet. I also received your e-mail, if it is that urgent, I will immediately contact you by e-mail at a place where I find wi-fi. Best regards from the middle of a street in Rio...
And I would like to ask one more question, with my deepest apologies. What type of ticket should I buy? Should I buy Mobilis to get to the hotel or would it be enough if I bought 10 tickets? Do the tickets have a zone distinction? I asked a lot of questions but please forgive me for being too complicated.
Hello there
The location of the hotel is next to the peripheral. If you have a room overlooking the ring road, there will be a lot of noise. The closest place is Porte de Versailles station, metro line 12. It's a beautiful and lively place. In order to recommend transportation to the hotel, I would need to know which airport you will land at. It would be better if you send me an e-mail. Since I'm currently on holiday in Rio and my internet connection is limited, I may not be able to respond quickly, sorry in advance.
You can decide for yourself which ticket is right for you by reading the article at this link: https://www.pariste.net/pariste-ulasim-8-biletler-ve-ulasim-kartlari/
