Nightlife!
Wednesday night in Paris is very calm compared to other days of the week because people go out less often. This doesn’t mean that there are not any activities but they are usually concentrated around specific locations such as Bastille area or Montparnasse area where there are many bars and nightclubs. Many popular bars and clubs open until 2 am on Wednesdays for those who want to party all night long! If you’re looking for something more low-key, there are also plenty of bars that close at midnight or 1 am.
Three neighborhoods to not miss:
Montmartre
This neighborhood is very popular with tourists because of its large number of small restaurants, bars and nightclubs. It’s also known for its artistic community and beautiful views of the city from the top of the hill where it is located.
Le Marais
Le Marais neighborhood is known for its shops, restaurants, bars and nightclubs. It’s right in the center of Paris but still offers a very local feel with small streets and shops that sell everything from antiques to clothes. The main square in Le Marais is Place des Vosges which has many cafes and restaurants around it so it makes for a nice place to hang out at night before going into one of the many nearby bars or clubs.
Place d’Italie
This neighborhood is also located near the center of Paris but has more of an industrial feel compared to Le Marais or Montmartre as it was once home to factories now converted into apartments and offices instead of shops or fancy restaurants. It’s the perfect place for a different look of Paris.
