Before stepping onto a Paris Metro train, there's usually one important moment: deciding on your route. Whether it's your first visit or your tenth, spending a minute looking at the network map, whether online or physically, can save time and make travelling around the city much easier.
These images are still a common sight in the city people checking the map, planning their route and getting ready to discover Paris. It's still a familiar sight outside Metro stations across the city and a reminder that every Paris adventure begins with a simple decision about where to head next.
One of the reasons the Paris Metro feels so accessible is that you're rarely far from a station. With more than 300 stations across the network, most places in central Paris are only a short walk from a Metro entrance, making it one of the easiest major cities in the world to explore without a car.
Planning your own trip? Our Paris Metro Guide explains everything from tickets and routes to practical tips for getting around the city with confidence.
Happy Monday everyone!
