Through its exhibitions, performances, debates, screenings and ambitious education programme, the BAL puts a huge effort into recording 'reality' in all its complexity, altering preconceptions, sketching history through the present and multiplying visual approaches. Under the direction of Raymond Depardon, this independent initiative interrogates the historical, political and social stakes of documentary through contemporary imagery, problematising a world saturated by the visual and protecting it from the ravages of a culture of distraction. Only 5 stops from our home on Line 2. Get off at Place Clichy. There is also a really cool cafe that serves quirky english food and delicious italian cafe.

Built in 1988 on top of the Belleville hill, the Belleville park (45,000 m²) offers an unrestricted panoramic view of the capital. A wooded village destined for children offers tower staircases and toboggans in all sizes. There is a water course, made up of waterfalls and streams and a panoramic viewpoint where you can admire the Parisian landscape. Evidence of the area's wine-producing past, the park also has 140 vines, which each produce around 2 to 3 kilos of grapes. Harvesting takes place every year. Many nice cafes at the top of the park.
