The Petite Ceinture is an old double-track railway line that ran through Paris inside the boulevards des Maréchaux. Its rails are now overrun by wild flora with unusual biodiversity, featuring more than two hundred plant species and more than seventy animal species.
In 2007, a first section was opened to walkers, in the 16th arrondissement, between Porte d'Auteuil and La Muette station. Since then, new sections have regularly been opened to the public. Often unknown even to Parisians themselves, this greenway, a trace of a rural capital, must be explored without delay! Some of the former stations of the Petite Ceinture have been turned into bars, restaurants, and cultural venues (Le Poinçon in the 14th arrondissement, Brasserie Auteuil in the 16th arrondissement, Le Hasard Ludique in the 18th arrondissement, etc.).
At the top of the ultra-modern Generator Paris youth hostel, located just a few steps from Canal Saint-Martin and Buttes-Chaumont Park, you’ll find the attractive and modern Khayma Rooftop.
Equipped with comfortable lounge furniture, a canopy, and a stylish bar, the wood-covered ninth-floor terrace also offers fabulous panoramic views of Sacré-Coeur and Montmartre.
Open to ყველას, whether hostel guests or not, Khayma Rooftop serves creative and refined cocktails, wine, and beer, all available at very decent prices. There is also a selection of organic and vegetarian bites with Middle Eastern influences.
With a youthful and modern atmosphere, Khayma Rooftop often hosts events such as DJ sets and small concerts. The rooftop is also available for private functions and can accommodate 110 people.
When the rooftop is unavailable, you can always visit Café Fabien and the Club on the lower level and in the basement of Generator Paris.
