Main attractions near Gare du Nord

Gare du Nord is conveniently located for exploring the popular 9th, 10th and 11th arrondissements of Paris. The station itself is a historical monument and is seen by many as an attraction in its own right. First built in 1846, and frequently added to, the 200-metre facade is a spectacle, with its glass roof and many detailed statues, which represent the cities that the station serves.

A 15-minute walk from the station towards the city centre will lead to the Saint-Denis and Saint-Martin gates. They originally served as gateways through the wall of Charles V, which was built in the 14th century to protect the city. From here, and within a 10-minute stroll, visitors will arrive in the theatre and music district, where famous institutions like Théâtre du Gymnase Marie Bell are, as well as the cabaret music hall of Folies Bergère.

Running alongside the station, to the east, is Canal Saint-Martin. It runs for over 4 km, crossing through the 10th and 11th arrondissements. Visitors can enjoy a pleasant walk along its banks whilst watching the barges navigate the locks. On the other side of the station, and only a 5-minute walk away is the Église Saint-Vincent-de-Paul de Paris. A few hundred metres down the road is the Saint-Quentin market, which is the largest in the capital. It’s covered and boasts the classic Baltard style. Close to this area, only a 5-minute walk away, visitors should take advantage of the chance to enjoy some less-typical French cuisine, with the Passage Brady providing a long succession of Indian restaurants.
