15th Arrondissement

This arrondissement is mostly residential and few tourists venture much deeper in its territory than the blocks immediately to the south-west of the Eiffel Tower.

Depending on your mindset, this could be disappointing or refreshing. The 15th can be safely skipped on your first visit to Paris, but if you want to see how the modern-day bourgeoisie lives, it's worth a visit.

Places to Visit

Aside from the much-discussed (and much-hated) Tour Montparnasse, the 15th arrondissement is pretty low on landmarks.
