The 9e runs from the Palais Garnier and the department stores on Boulevard Haussmann north toward Montmartre.1 Its four quarters are Saint-Georges, Chaussée-d’Antin, Faubourg-Montmartre and Rochechouart, and its northwest corner is sometimes called the Nouvelle Athènes.1 Charles Garnier’s opera house opened on 5 January 1875, and Marc Chagall’s ceiling has covered the original in the auditorium since 1964.2

The northern half, around Rue des Martyrs and Avenue Trudaine, is South Pigalle, or SoPi.3 Its streets hold several of the arrondissement’s specialty bars and brunch cafés, while Rue La Fayette, with more cafés than any other street in the 9e, serves office workers and shoppers.

Local tip: Start at KB on Avenue Trudaine when it opens at 07:45 on weekdays, then walk down Rue des Martyrs toward Notre-Dame-de-Lorette past its food shops.4
