If you are tired of the hustle and bustle of the big city, then take a walk along the Green Alley (Coulee Verte) - this is an unusual, linear park in the 12th arrondissement of Paris, located on the site of a former railway at a height of 7 meters above the busy Parisian streets and a length of 4.5 km. The alley is easy to find: from Place de la Bastille, go southeast past the opera house (the Bastille monument will be behind you, and the Bastille opera will be on your left). You walk down the street and soon you will see a staircase on the left leading up to the aqueduct and the inscription "La coulee verte".→
