Maisons colorées de la Rue Cremieux is an attraction that many visiting, or even living in Paris, don't know about. The small row of houses are painted in varying pastel shades and when you walk down the street, it's like you've stepped into a technicolored world. This pink house that I captured is just one of the many that line the iconic block — don't miss out on seeing them in person!
