Apur has put together a portrait of the little circular railway line – la Petite Ceinture – which reveals its unique character over and above the many challenging questions is raises.
It is the portrait of an exceptional stretch of land : its history, its unusual landscapes half-way between a railway wasteland and the garden of Eden, the resounding calm right in the middle of the dense city, its ecological qualities, its sometimes discreet sometimes monumental presence in the urban landscape, the strong attachment city dwellers have to this singular and atypical site at the heart of the metropolis...
This document immerses one in this very distinctive universe both summarising and giving details about the Petite Ceinture allowing one to discover and get to know it better.
