Passage Plantin (the Mini down the stairs)

In the story · Mini car chase

The wildest beat of the Mini chase: Bourne throws Marie's red Mini down these steps and through a passage barely wider than the car, between Rue du Transvaal and Rue des Couronnes on the Belleville hillside. It is still a steep, quiet stairway between garden walls, a good excuse to explore Parc de Belleville next door.

Where to stand for the photo

Shoot from the bottom on Rue des Couronnes looking up the flight of steps so the passage narrows toward the top of the frame.
