It’s useful to stay in a hotel near Gare de l'Est, as this can be the portal to destinations outside of Paris. Gare de l'Est is named as Paris’ eastern railway station, but is located close to Gare du Nord. Gare de l'Est is a major passenger transportation terminal and a convenient spot from which to explore Paris, France, or even Europe. In fact, in 1883 this was the station of embarkation for the very first trip of the legendary Orient Express to Istanbul. Gare de l'Est is also one of the biggest and oldest of the city’s railway stations. Its position facing boulevard de Strasbourg gives it a prominent standing on Paris’ north-south axis. The station itself was designed by the great French architect Francois Duquesney and opened in 1849. At this time it was known as Strasbourg Platform, as it operated as a terminal for the Paris-Strasbourg Railway Company. Later, in 1854, the railway system was expanded and the station was re-christened Gare de l’Est.

At the top of the station’s west façade you can see the statue by Philippe Joseph Henri Lemaire representing the city of Strasbourg. The other end of the façade is graced by a sculpture representing Verdun. In the station’s main hall there is a huge 1926 painting by Albert Herter illustrating French troops of the First World War departing from the Gare de l’est for the Western Front.

Located in the capital’s 10th arrondissement, Gare de l'Est acts as the terminus for a sizeable railway network that services eastern France. For visitors moving on to destinations further afield, this is the departure point for Luxembourg, Germany, Switzerland, and Eastern Europe, in addition to other regions of France. With regards to traversing Paris, Gare de l'Est has its own metro station and Château-Landon‎ metro station is also a short walk around the corner.
