Mapping Paris addresses
 

Forgive me if this has been covered before . . . <BR> <BR>Does anyone know of a good web site for mapping addresses in Paris? I can't get Mapquest to work for me. <BR> <BR>Many thanks.

here are two, I haven't used them <BR> <BR>http://www.ratp.fr/Transpor.eng/Quar...tpdgif.eng.htm neighborhood maps <BR> <BR>a great service, set up by France Telecom, which will show you any street address located within Paris city limits. <BR> 1. Go to http://www.pageszoom.com/wrmm_rue_marchande.cgi <BR> 2. Click on English language (to see instructions and info <BR> in English) <BR> 3. Type in the address <BR> 4. You will see a detailed description of the street, house <BR> by house, and navigation buttons allowing you to "walk" <BR> up or down the street, and even turn the corner. <BR> 5. Find the listing of your hotel (or whatever) and click on <BR> the PHOTO icon. <BR> 6. Takes a few seconds to load, but it should show a photo of your hotel <BR>

www.pagesjaunes.fr <BR> <BR>this is the online yellow pages for France, and it is awesome. If you type in a specific address, not only will you get it pinpointed on a map, but you will also get a diagram of the block it's located on that shows the other addresses and describes what they are, and a photo (or two) of each building and photos of the street itself so you can take a "virtual sroll"!

Elaine and I appear to have posted at exactly the same time. www.pageszoom.com and www.pagesjaunes.fr are the same thing; the latter takes you directly to the listings and doesn't offer an English version (not that you need one to figure out the instructions and the listings are in French anyway).

Wow, thanks for the quick replies. I just spent the last hour mapping restaurant recommendations (from this site, of course) on pagesjaune.com. Great site, and you can even just enter the restaurant's name. I was able to convert to an English version too. <BR> <BR>Thanks again guys!

Another site that I have found helpful is <BR> <BR>http://www.ratp.fr/Pla_q/Pla_r/Pla_r..._quartiers.htm <BR> <BR>From this site you can choose a metro stop from an alpha menu and get a fairly detailed map of the surrounding area including bus and train stops.
