République

The 10th & 11th Arrondissements

In the center of this busy Right Bank neighborhood is la Place de la République, colloquially called Répu by Parisians. A massive monument topped by a statue of Marianne — the personification of the French Republic — stands in the middle of the large, lively city square. Wide Haussmannian avenues converge towards the square, making it one of the most important nexuses of the capital and a great place to meet up before going out in the nearby Oberkampf neighborhood just to the south or around the Canal Saint Martin to the north. These two areas are full of bars and little restaurants where you can truly appreciate the pulse of the Parisian night.
