Paris Metro
Bastille station system
The Paris Metro is the rapid transit system serving Paris, France—a network of underground railway lines identified by numbers and colors.
It's one of the world's oldest and densest metro systems, with stations within walking distance of nearly any point in the city.
We took the Metro from Montmartre to the Louvre.
The system serves as a model for urban transit and appears frequently in French cinema and literature as a symbol of Parisian daily life.
