Villa du Danube
Villa du Danube, in the Mouzaïa district of the 19th arrondissement, belongs to that network of private lanes lined with small houses built in the late 19th century on former gypsum quarries, whose fragile subsoil ruled out tall buildings. Each cottage has a small front garden.
The narrow lanes, flower-covered gates and almost complete absence of traffic create a village atmosphere suspended in the middle of the city. It is one of the most endearing ensembles in north-eastern Paris. Tip: combine it with the neighbouring villas — Bellevue, Amalthée, Cronstadt — in a thirty-minute loop, respecting residents' peace and quiet.
