Paris’s 16th arrondissement, also known as Passy, is popular amongst celebrities and filled with many well-known tourist hotspots. Often compared to New York’s Upper East Side, this district is a haven for both fashionistas and the culturally inclined, packed with designer shops, museums, theatres and stunning architecture. Soak up the lifestyle of the rich and famous by strolling down Avenue Foch, one of the most prestigious streets in Paris that features penthouses, palaces and classically designed buildings that are occupied by some of the most influential people in the world. This is the perfect district for those with impeccable taste and a passion for luxury as it features the breathtaking Jardins du Trocadéro which overlook the Eiffel Tower and plenty of gourmet restaurants and unique stores. Fun fact: one of the opening scenes of the James Bond film ‘Thunderball’ was filmed in the 16th arrondissement. The Pont Bir Hakeim is also situated in this district. Tourists flock to this bridge which featured in both ‘Inception’ and ‘The Last Tango in Paris.’
