PARIS 13TH ARRONDISSEMENT
The quaint
area takes its name from Pierre Caille, who acquired the area in the 16th
century.
It contains
cozy bars, small restaurants, and the famous Place de la Commune-de-Paris.
Fighters
from the Paris Commune repelled royalist forces during the Battle of
Buttes-aux-Cailles.
The area
also is filled with graffiti-style street art, from small stencils to full
murals.
It was fertile
ground for the brilliant Miss Tic, a street artist who passed away this year.
