About Pigalle
Pigalle has historically been Paris's red-light district and entertainment quarter, though the area has evolved significantly into a creative neighbourhood - particularly around the 'SoPi' (South Pigalle) area - with independent music shops on Rue Victor Massé, cocktail bars, record stores and boutique hotels. The Moulin Rouge is a 3-minute walk west.
