A classic corner in the 12th arrondissement.

The intersection of Avenue Daumesnil and Rue Abel features elegant buildings with curved facades, balconies and the detail shouting 'Paris'. This is a lively yet pleasant residential and commercial area, close to the Gare de Lyon and the Viaduc des Arts.

It’s a good example of everyday Paris a busy junction that still feels like part of a neighbourhood.

A reminder: Paris streets are often at their best at simple corners like this, where architecture and the daily life of the city come together.
