The Coulée Verte René-Dumont is a former railway line transformed into a green walkway through the 12th arrondissement. The route passes above the streets and through several gardens, offering an unusual way to explore Paris on foot. Nearby, Rue Crémieux is known for its colorful little houses, giving the street an almost Mediterranean feel.
Our tip: combine the two for an unusual walk with several highly photogenic spots along the way.
