Less well known in Paris is the district of La Nouvelle-Athènes. This part of the 9ème arrondissement underwent a considerable expansion during the 19th century because it was the home of the intellectual elite of Paris. Writers, actors, musicians and painters built sumptuous private mansions here, which still give the district its charm today. It is also here that the artistic movement of Romanticism emerged, which you can discover in the Musée de la Vie Romantique.

Many buildings in Paris are crossed by what are called "passages". You will be able to discover some, not far from the Joe M Hotel. You will be able to find shops, tea rooms or restaurants, in an original architectural setting. We advise you to try the passage Jouffroy, the passage of Vivienne, the passage of Panorama or the passage Verdeau.
