Pigalle basketball & Moulin Rouge
Our personal favorite and surprise during this Paris City Trip was Pigalle Basketball court. Together with Nike, the fashion brand Pigalle designed this a-ma-zing looking basketball court. We have to say that it is only allowed to take pictures here if you have permission from a local. Please always respect this.

Near the fields is one of the most famous cabaret shows in the world; The Moulin Rouge. If you have time available, plan to visit one of these shows.
