In Paris, we already know the Indian quarter and its unmissable Ganesh festival, but now La Courneuve is one of the places where cultures mingle, in the area around Place du 8 mai 1945. From the Shiva temple to the grocery stores where you'll find the ingredients you need for Indian cuisine, not to mention the shops, boutiques and gastronomy straight from South Asia, immerse yourself in this little-known culture. As a bonus, a tasting session awaits you in a Sri Lankan restaurant at the end of the tour.

Price: €15 per adult, children under 14 are free. In fact, the tour is recommended for families, from around 8 years of age (duration 2h30). Let's go on a one-way trip to Sri Lanka, to discover languages, religions and cuisines from other parts of the world, with your Navigo passport as your only passport!
