(Last Update: 28.01.2025) Sometimes in Paris, the magnificent streets on those wide boulevards Haussmanian Among the buildings, sometimes even in the neighborhoods consisting of modern multi-storey buildings, you may suddenly come across completely different districts, streets and houses. In this article, we will talk about one of such places, Square des PeupliersI would like to introduce you to the Village des Peupliers, which is right next to it.
I often say that I do not go to the east side of Paris, because there are not as many interesting things for me as there are on the west side of Paris. Since most of my time is spent on the west side of Paris, I do not have much knowledge of the east side, but this does not mean that Paris is The east of China does not deserve attention; Of course there is a lot to see here too. That's why I wanted to share with you this small region that I discovered at the beginning of August 2017.
13 borough'in, Tolbiac located on the side 1926 dated Square des Peupliers (skuar de pöplie or skuağ de pöplie), is a place like a dream garden, stuck between the cheesy high-rise buildings that rose nearby in the early 50s. M7 metro come with the line Tolbiac When you come out from the station to the surface, you feel a little disappointed, thinking “this is it?” but when you enter Rue de Tolbiac and proceed a little further, the atmosphere slowly begins to change.
When you proceed straight from Rue de Tolbiac, enter from the second left after about 100-150 meters and turn into the first gap on the right, you come to Square de Peupliers. Here a small place consisting of three triangular mini streets Actually, the houses, gardens, and cobblestone streets are so cute that one feels as if the dimension of Paris has suddenly changed. This is already one of the most special areas of Paris. Butte quailIt is located just below.
i wrote earlier Rue de Mouzïa, Orchid Street ve Rue de Crémiux Discovering places like Square des Peupliers, which is very different from the familiar Paris texture, reminds me of the Koşuyolu of my childhood, and will remind you of who knows what places, makes me feel like I have found a hidden treasure; That's why I love finding such places and then sharing them with you. These houses were perhaps planned as workers' houses in the area where factories and workshops were once located, but today, each of them continues to exist as expensive villas. However, the immediate surroundings are not that lucrative, but such an area has been preserved in that ordinariness; That's why it deserves attention and can surprise people.
Although “poplar"in our language"Poplar”, but I have never seen a poplar in this area :) There are much more beautiful trees instead. I don't know if this tiny neighborhood, which will be full of green flowers or yellow and red leaves depending on the season, will be as cute when you visit it in winter. Square des Peupliers is a great setting especially for taking photos and finding peace in the greenery. Of course, since it's a very small place, you might feel a little sad like a child whose ride on the carousel ends early, but there's also a carousel right next door. Village des Peupliers Another wonderful mini neighborhood is waiting for you.
To do this, exit the entrance and turn right and you will see Village des Peupliers on the left. Rows of two-three storey houses, some stone, some colorfully painted, are all together, waiting for you to discover. That's why I suggest you stick your head around the streets, and when you see something attractive, don't miss it and dive into that street. Just below Place de l'Abbé Georges Hénocque There is a small but peaceful square called . If you wish, you can sit in the most beautiful part of the square. Café des PeupliersYou can take a break with a cold lemonade or a hot coffee, depending on the season. The food here also looks good, but I haven't tried it; We would all be happy if anyone tries it and shares their opinions and suggestions in the comments section.
On the east side of this area, there are multi-storey apartment buildings, Far Eastern neighborhood of Paris It is located. If you move west Montsouris Park You go to the side; Orchid Street It will also be on your way. In your southern part, it used to be a railway that surrounded Paris, but today it has been turned into a walking, park and recreation area. The Little BeltThere is a short section of the ring, but this part of the ring is not that impressive. On the north side, Place d'Italie, one of the important squares of Paris, is waiting for you.
Pleasant trips, pleasant discoveries…
