Place Pigalle
Place Pigalle, 75009 Paris, FranceAbout
Place Pigalle. On the border with the 9th, The sleaze of Blvd. de Clichy between Pl. Pigalle and Pl. Blanche can provide a moment of distraction. Be warned if you are male it is better to do this in the company of a female fellow traveller, as the clubs often send the girls outside to attempt to physically drag passing men off of the street. These strip clubs are big ripoffs. They tempt you with a free drink for €10 entry; once in the girl who starts dancing orders a couple of drinks (Red Bull) and then before you realise you are presented with a bill ranging from €500 to €700 . They have these big bouncers who threaten/manhandle you till you arrive at some settlement with them. The whole of Pigalle is a rip off, and is best avoided. The police know about these places but nothing is done. AVOID PIGALLE CLUBS.
