Pigalle Place

pigalle

Pigalle is how one of the neighbourhoods of Paris is called. The neighborhood's name is due to the famous sculptore Juan-Bautista Pigalle (1714-1785). This neighborhood located under Otero Montmartre has long been notorious as a popular hotspot for tourists. It is home to some of Paris' most famous cabarets like the famous Moulin Rouge.

 

Nowadays you can find sex shops, strip clubs even prostitutes. Some people in England, however, still think that the hot and dirty look of the neighbourhood is only to attract tourism. 
The clubs are not only visited by tourists but also by local people who take advantage of the weekend to take a look around.
