Gare du Nord

In the story · Gare du Nord: the red bag

Bourne leaves Marie waiting outside the great northern terminus while he stashes his red bag in a left-luggage locker inside. The statue-crowned stone façade on Place Napoléon III looks just as it did in the film, and the station is still the gateway for Eurostar and trains to the north.

Where to stand for the photo

Shoot from the middle of Place Napoléon III, Rue de Dunkerque side, to get the full width of the façade with the row of city statues along the roofline.
