Hidden Corners of Paris - Ave Rapp - Art Nouveau

29 Avenue Rapp is situated in the Eiffel Tower Quarter of Paris, an area where everything is on a monumental scale. A prime example of Art Nouveau architecture, architect Jules Lavirotte has created a doorway lavish in its use of flower motifs intermingling with female figures, in a manner that is deliberately erotic and which was considered subversive at the time of its completion in 1901.
The street has other wonderful examples of this style.

Near Ave Rapp, I can recommend a lovely terrace nestled into this very Parisian district ,one of our capital’s most elegant neighborhoods. The Café Alma is found along a large avenue under the shade of century-old trees. Seated comfortably at the café, you’re just a short walk away from the Eiffel Tower, the new museum designed by Jean Nouvel and shopping along avenue Montaigne just across the bridge. Take advantage of this ideal situation to take a break at any time of day
