I love the 16th. I had a boyfriend who came from a very fine family who lived there. It’s very chic and not full of tourists and tourist traps.
I don't believe we crossed over into the 16th, which I believe is on the opposite side of the Arce De Triomphe from the Champs Elysées . We have also heard that it is beautiful there and will have to go and see it when we are in Paris in October.
16th used to be where all the American expats tended to live- those with money or really good jobs. I lived in the 17th as a student years ago. It’s completely different but also very nice. I attended ParisIV (Sorbonne) and the Ecole du Louvre. Used the metro every day to get to and from classes. Cafes Deux Maggots and de Flore! I hardly ever went there but did try them - very touristy.
I stayed there last year I was in Paris, in fact it’s a second time .. love Passy !
Each arrondissement is actually further divided in quarters, called “quartiers” in French, and they all have names. For example, the 6th arrondissement is divided into: Saint-Germain des Prés, Monnaie, Odéon and Notre-Dame-des-Champs. It can be really helpful when looking at real estate to know which corner of the arrondissement feels like home. 💕
Yes, but just to confirm, the quartiers have names but the arrondissements do not. Definitely is helpful to know about the different neighborhoods and "quartiers." Thank you, Nadia.
@@kjandtonylovefrance right! Arrondissements are numbered, and quartiers are named. My fave is Enfants Rouges in the 3rd - it’s where all the good food + coffee are. 😊
@@nadia.lewis. Arrondissements are numbered and name as quartiers have names and nos. 20 arrondissement and 80 quartiers or 4 neighborhoods per district. For example, The 1éme is call the Louvre by locals even if rarely seen in publications all have a local name I worked here, and the neighborhoods or quartiers are Saint Germain l'Auxerrois as no 1, Halles no 2, Palais-Royal no 3 and Place Vendôme as no 4. Local people talking with us tell us where they live by the quartier. Salut
Personally I would not visit Paris for a bet. I much prefer Brittany, far more civilised.
You certainly are not alone. Many people are suggesting we consider the South or other more "civilised" areas of France.
@@kjandtonylovefrance I holiday in Brittany, since the mobile home we owned died of old age, we rent a 6 berth mobile home for €300 a week.
It's really nice to give a quick run-through of the arrondissements. If moving to Paris, check the safety aspects of each arrondissement too, or the quartiers to avoid within an arrondissement too. It can affect your insurance too.
Thanks Nikki! Especially for pointing out the safety aspect in certain areas.
My favorites are 1,3,8 and 9. Every district has much to recommend it. My favorite city garden is the Tuileries. Th walk through the garden from the Louvre to Concorde and the Orangerie museum is so lovely. You are right about the Metro and the stairs which is one reason I use the bus in Paris. They are as convenient and the view from a bus is much nicer than the view in a tunnel. 🙂
There is truly something to love in every district. I don't think it's possible for us to get tired of Paris.
Parisians avoid the Champs Elysées but I agree wholly that the view from the Arc de triomphe is fantastic.
I'm sure that we would feel the same way about the Champs Elysées if we were living in Paris or I should say WHEN we are living in Paris 🤲
We just got back a few days ago from Paris and the last 2 times we stayed in the 6th because we've also found it to be our favorite! 😂
Thank you for this video, it was immensely informative and useful!
We also discovered the 6 flights of stairs to get out of the train station in montmarte, I laughed out loud when you mentioned it 😅
Glad you enjoyed it and found it useful, Mark. Those stairs....lol. It's quite the experience!
The spelling of arrondissement and the name of places, parkd and toutist attractions is wrong.
KJ & Tony: I admire your gumption in learning French. Here is a suggestion, given in deep respect: you should consider drills for how to pronounce vowels, specifically - an, en, in, on - that end hundreds of words in French. Once you get those down, you’ll be ahead of your game. Also learn which consonants at ends of words are pronounced - hint, very few. Finally, unlike Spanish or Italian, French doesn’t pronounce all syllables, making it easier in a way than some other latin languages. Good luck in your language learning curve!
Thank you, Jolie. Great advice!
The 6th for me❤❤❤. The 1st, 5th snd the 4th.
The Sorbonne is pronounced "soar-bun"; you DO pronounce the n, because there's a double n in the word Sorbonne.
Thank you. I'm sure we'll get better with practice and when we are around others speaking French.
Thank you, now I understand with the double n in "Sorbonne".
It's one of those words that is pronounced as it is written. ;-)
Or you can go the middle road and pronounce it “sore bone” like my husband does LOL. (I haven’t had the heart yet to tell him! He’s trying, bless his heart. Knowing Spanish is almost a hindrance because in Spanish every syllable is pronounced, if not every single letter.)
hi you have some interesting content but please if you are going to use the auto captioning feature ....... take the time to actually edit those captions. Or if that is too much bother, just don't use them.
We will take a look. Thank you.
Nowadays, best Asian food is in the 13th arrondissement. Paris’ China Town.
Thanks for the tip 👍
In your opinion is it wise to wear a wedding ring or watch while in Paris ?
We both wore watches and our wedding rings and didn't have any issues.
If you wear anything ostentatious, the risk goes up, also if it's easy to take. Necklaces and bracelets are easy to take. If you are visiting, then you don't necessarily know the codes; that is true for anyway but it can make you vulnerable. Common sense protects you fairly well.😊
As a person who is living in Paris for more then 35 years I would say that your really don't havr to worry about wearing jewlry , Paris is still a "normal " city , a beautiful place to be !
I left my heart in the 4th Arrondissements .......French woman..eh
Ah, finding love in Paris ❤️
Thank you for this very informative presentation .
Glad it was helpful!
I wouldn’t worry too much about your French at this juncture. Be confident, be bold, be committed and you will do well. Arrondissement is pronounced with ‘dees’ because of the ‘i’ and the ending ‘t’ is silent.” It’s all good .. everyone will know what you are meaning to say. My apartment is across from Jardin du Luxembourg so we should definitely have lunch and an impromptu French lesson. Love the channel -Daniel 🇫🇷
Thank you, Daniel. I feel like I can't retain much of anything with out being there and having the opportunity for daily practical practice. That being said, I will certainly continue to practice. You must be loving your time in Paris, especially being right across from Jardin du Luxembourg... heaven!! Would love to have lunch with you when we are there in October.
The 10th is a cool arrondissement, and the canal is a nice place for a stroll on a sunny afternoon. That being said, the 10th is also where some very infamous pickpocketing areas are, so it’s best to keep your wits about you and use all your precautions (money belt, wallet and phone out of sight, wary on and near the Metro and stations).
We plan to visit the 10th when we're there in October, so we (and I'm sure others) appreciate your tips.
This is helpful! Appreciate the time and effort you put into this video. I learned some things about Paris that I didn't know. Arrondissement 6 is my favorite too ☺ Thanks for sharing
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it!
Please learn that you say "duh" not "doo" for the the word "deux", meaning two. "Duh" isn't exact, but it's closer than "doo."
Thank you, Karen. Clearly we need a lot of practice with our pronunciation. We just finished our beginners French class and I want to do it again before moving on to a more advanced level.
@@kjandtonylovefrance It seems like y'all have learned a lot of vocabulary so that's good! I am not sure what kind of course you are taking, but it is a good idea to repeat the course or find a better course. I repeated French I after a 2 year break from middle to high school. Your course needs to teach you more of the general pronunciation rules such as that double l as in ville is pronounced as a y and the e on the end of pere is silent. It is best to have a live teacher who can correct your pronunciation. You can also record yourself to see if you sound like the words that you are repeating (I assume that there is spoken language drill as part of the course). A good course will include all four skills of listening, speaking, reading, and writing. As psych people you probably know that it is more difficult to learn a language as an adult versus as a child. I am proud of your progress and your desire to correctly pronounce the words.
The 16th is very elegant with great parks and stunning views of eiffel tower . Its relatively free of tourists
We will definitely be exploring the 16th on our next trip to Paris in October.
Good info .. thank you.
Glad you found it helpful!
This was an amazing video! Thank you very much. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Glad you enjoyed it!
You forgot to mention La Coupole, the famous cafe of Montparnasse!? I used to live in the 17th as a student at the Paris IV (Sorbonne), many years ago. I also studied art history at the Ecole du Louvre-Histoire de Dessin du 19e siecle. Pere la Chaise cemetery is pronounced Pear La Shez
Thank you, Pawlie. The pronunciation is where I (KJ) in particular really need a lot of work!
Great video KJ and Tony. Thank you for sharing.🥰 Years ago when I was in Paris ~I stayed at the 16th District at a lovely Hotel~ the Hotel Dubois. This was a long time ago in 2005. I enjoyed the area. :) PS We saw most of Paris on the trip~Montmartre for sure is a definitive favorite of mine. If I ever go back--I will maybe stay at the Champs Elysees area.
Thank you, Suzi! Glad you enjoyed it ❤️ The 16th and the 6th are common favorites, from what we understand.
1/16 nicest
Yes, both are lovely.
I have stayed in France for 4 months, I love every bit of it because of family.
I’ve never stayed in any district before, I’ve chosen the 10th. Hoping I would love it! I notice thé closer you get to 1-6 gets very trendy and pricy. This video was so helpful to understanding each arrondissement!
Glad you enjoyed it. We've never been to the 10th (that I'm aware of). We'll have to visit all the arr. we haven't been to when we're there in October.
Great video. 👍. My two favourite arrondisements are the 6th ( love Jardin du Luxembourg and the walk via Odeon to Saint Sulpice) and the 18th. I love the “other side “ of the hill, the area between Lamarck Caulaincourt and Jules Joffrin metro stations.
Hi Andy! Thank you. Those are our favorites too.
This was very helpful! I haven’t been to Paris for 12 years. I hope to get back soon! Unfortunately I have an elderly dog who I don’t want to be apart from. Sadly one day I won’t have her anymore. I will return after her passing which I hope will ease my grief. I loved the 6th!! I stayed in the 8th when I was there!
Hi Liza. We totally understand how you feel and do believe, when the time comes, it will ease your grief to be in a place that brings so much joy.
I travel alone and was in Paris 2016. Would you ever consider organizing some meet ups for people traveling in Paris?
Yes, perhaps. Although it sounds like it would take a lot of coordination. Not sure what that would look like.
Love this ! Thank you for all of your hard work ! Much appreciated ! We stayed in the 8th for business & shopping! Hopefully next trip we will have more time! I am very excited for you both as you plan to return & share your experience with us all!
Thank you, Rosalind ❤️
Thanks for this educational and fun video. I enjoyed this very much. Blessings to you and family! ❤
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it!
Happy Tuesday morning. Hope you had a nice Memorial Day. Been a while there so now I think...is there any arrondissement you would recommend to avoid? As newer Paris synchophants...would you pick your top three...next three...? Off to Nice soon! Enjoy...from Wisconsin 😊😊
Happy Tuesday, Carol! We wouldn't recommend avoiding any of the arrondissements but have been advised that you have to be careful of pickpockets in some rather than other. Our top three are definitely 5, 6 and 18. We'd also like to check out the 16th when we are there in October.
@@kjandtonylovefrance Yikes...I used syncophant incorrectly...student is better.
It seems you have a script and each read designated lines. Love to have some really natural back and forth
Thanks for the feedback, Rose. We really appreciate it and will see what we can do.
I love your videos, so plesant and positive!
This one in particular, short and informative enough!
LOVE your politically correct and polite description of 20 😊!
Hey People who tried to correct host's French in comments!
Was it really necessary or even appropriate 🤔?
Merci 🥰
I imagine they appreciate the help
Thank you; this was just so interesting!! I gotta win the Lottery😂❤
Glad you enjoyed it, Maxine!
Thanks KJ and Tony . That was so informative :)
You're welcome!
This will be helpful for visitors to Paris. Everyone should go to Paris once in their life!! and Rome.
We hope so! And, absolutely yes!! Everyone needs to go to Paris at least once!
Agree. Going there this September🥰
You're welcome. Debby in Kansas
🥰🥰🥰
Thank you both, especially, for the tutorial/real experience vids you did on acquiring your 1 year long stay visas. Really helpful. Am putting my package together now for a visit to the Atlanta consulate for a visa to commence later in the year. Next stop, Charente Maritime. The house btw Saintes and Cognac is 99%, after 4 year reno. Come down and visit in future. Wonderful area. Lovely people.
So glad you're finding the videos useful. Good luck with your visa application. We will definitely have to get down and over to the Southwest coast some time. We really want to spend our retirement exploring as much of France as we possibly can.
Loved the band at the end! Wow! Debby in Kansas
Glad you enjoyed it Debby. I didn't play all the footage of the band. I'll post it on the Patreon site!
Very helpful. Thank you!
You're welcome, Terry.
Don't think one pronounce the "t" in arrandisment
I think I slipped up once in the video and yes, you are correct, you don't pronounce the "t"
@@kjandtonylovefrance French is such a beautiful language. You guys do great. I know a few pronunciation rules from Louisiana upbringing.
My fav part of all your vids is when you ask Tony “are you ready, let’s go” 🤍
I'm so glad you enjoy it, Sharon. We thought it was funny that in this video we said it at exactly the same time.
