In Paris, Le Marais has great adult addresses for architecture, fashion, art galleries and its many museums (10 and not the least).

But children are also welcome, as there are playgrounds open to them. Thus, in addition to the 17 parks and public gardens in the 3rd and 4th arrondissements, there are museums, shops, restaurants and other places where budding enthusiasts can exercise their curiosity.
