Why locals recommend it
There are very few water towers in Paris, but this one has a beautiful message. Artist Tristan Eaton painted a series of human and animal characters on what’s now called the Peace Tower. To see it, walk past the hospital’s Dr. House mural, made by Invader, and follow the signs for the “blanchisserie” until you come face-to-face with the tower. Because the tower is visible from every train that leaves the nearby station, the artist decided to include the metro in his mural. If you look carefully at the letter "a” in “paix,” the French word for peace, you’ll see the head of the train.
Tips from locals
The central square is quiet and green, ideal for playing outside with children, far from the busy streets of Paris. The chapel is also worth a quick detour.
Nearest hospital for emergencies. Walk 2 minutes to our metro stop and take line 5 two stops to Saint Marcel. It's 2 minutes by taxi or 20 minutes walking across the bridge "Austerlitz"
