Recently on my trip through Europe I was advised to check out this street when I stopped in Paris. Easily the most colorful street in the entire city, Rue Crémieux is a residential street full of pastel colored homes.
I was only in Paris for one day as part of an 8-day rail trip through Europe. I spent about an hour here and had plenty of time to see other places in the city.
A vibrant purplish house lush with plants
Teal and burnt orange colors
Blue on blue on white + a cat
Flowers and houses
A pink home with blue and white accents
This street is an Instagram and door photographers dream. With hashtags like #ihavethisthingwithdoors and #doorsofinstagram – you will be sure to get noticed with the vibrant colors.
Tips:
- About a 7 minute walk from Bastille Metro stop
- Keep an eye out for the street, it is mostly businesses surrounding the area
- Bring all your camera equipment – you will take endless photos
- Keep social media updated abroad by getting a Skyroam
- People do live in these homes, respect their privacy and if they ask you not to photograph their home, don’t.
Wow!! That is pretty. All the color gives that neighborhood so much personality

You’re very welcome! Let me know how it goes
I really appreciate people and cities that take the effort to make their streets look pretty. It is so easy to put up a slab of concrete and call it a building these days. I love the unexpected pop of colour of this street and will be checking it out next time I am in Paris. Thanks for sharing Nicki

Thanks for reading! This street literally comes out of nowhere – it’s pretty business heavy around there. So it was a nice change of pace
So pretty! I love the picture of the cat (maybe because I am a cat person). I will have to check this out next time I am in Paris.

This street is incredibly charming! Have been craving a France trip so badly and this post just intensified those cravings! Paris has so many beautiful streets, I don’t know if I could pick a favorite, but WOW this street may be high on the list!

This street is perfect for photo shoots – I think you guys would have a lovely time. Just bring a tripod
This is beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing!
It really is beautiful! I would spend hours just snapping photos! Love love Nicki! xo
Lovely pictures, especially the one with the cat strolling down the street. Honestly, I wish all cities would give each house a pot of paint and tell them to brighten up each street. The world would be a much better place if everywhere was this colourful!
This is SO beautiful! Totally just bookmarked this so I can visit when I go! I love all of your photos and can’t believe I haven’t heard about this street before now! Thank you!!!! – Sophia from http://www.sophiawithoutborders.com
