“Surprises, rare finds, and odd treasures sure to enchant lovers of multifaceted Paris

A palladian pavillon, an 18th-century tower, two rats nibbling a hole in the wall, a chocolatier-pharmacist, an old protestant cemetery, a carved medieval sign, a gothic parchment, a workingman’s chateau, a pagoda, a moving gateway, telescopic street lights, a black virgin, a tortured chevalier, a surrealist sundial, bas-reliefs in honor of Louis XIV, an old reading hall, a mysterious caryatid, an imperial bell, a bastion in a garden, a building like a ship, 19th-century greenhouses, stalactites in a grotto, an arch over a lost canal … Just a few of Paris’ secrets waiting to be explored.”
