Getting around town is easy since the Bastille is at the center of a  major transportation hub, where three Métro lines (1, 5 and 8) cross at the Bastille station.  The closest Métro entrance is right outside the front entrance  of Cour Damoye, on Place de la Bastille.

Place de la Bastille is one of the city's busiest traffic circles, serving as the confluence for thirteen different streets: Boulevards de la Bastille, Bourdon, Henri IV, Beaumarchais, and Richard Lenoir; Rues de la Bastille, de la Roquette, du Faubourg Saint-Antoine, de Charenton, de Lyon, and Saint-Antoine; Cour Damoye and Passage du Cheval Blanc. Three Paris arrondissements (the 4th, 11th, and 12th) are joined at this intersection.

The apartment is on the edge of the Marais, with its enchanting parks and museums.  It is a short walk to Île Saint Louis and Notre Dame and a short Metro ride to the Louvre.   Within 15 minutes you can be on the banks of the Seine, and in even less time you can be waterside at the marina on the Canal Saint-Martin!
