The borderline of the 10th arrondissement always fascinates me. Only a few steps away from my homey 2d arrondissement lies a whole new world of authenticity, multiculturalism and old city charm. And the obvious stuff you*d find in any Parisian street on an evening of garbage collecting.
But there is more to this world of weird Indian curiosity shops, Turkish late-night supermarkets and incredibly authentic Arab barber shops. It*s the feeling of a new beginning. Hope for immigrant communities to make a good start and become a part of Paris society.

"Save us from our certain oblivion!"
This Indian store has it all! Even a yogi!
Fur coats a go go!
This shop specializes in repairing sewing machines...
...which you may notice when taking a look inside
a seamstress*s nightmare
The Grand Rex always appeared to me as a beacon of light, marking the point where my arrondissement ends, and the adventure starts.
