Paris Map
You can find some good pocket-size map in nearly all the newspaper
stands throughout the city. They cost between 8 and 20 euros. Most
will include a metro map, a bus map, a detailed map of each arrondissement,
and a map of the surrounding Paris suburbs.
The Districts
of Paris
Paris is made up of 20 arrondissements (districts) from 1 to
20. The first arrondissement is in the center of the city on the
right bank. The arrondissements are layed out in the form of a spiral
and turning clockwise. There is a direct relationship between the
last two numbers in the Paris zip codes and the arrondissements.
For example, an address with a zip code of 75012 (all Paris zip
codes start with 750) is found in the 12th arrondissement, 75004
is in the 4th arrondissement.
The rules of the street
There are three general rules to know regarding the orientation
fo the streets:
- The streets running perpendicular to the Seine (North-South) are
numbered in starting from the Seine.
- The streets running parallel to the Seine (East-West) are numbered
in the direction that the Seine flows.
- If you place yourself at the beginning of a street (next to the
address #1) and look towards the other end of the street, the odd
numbered addresses are on the left side of the street and the even
numbered addresses are on the right.
