If you go down to Avenue Des Gobelins today, you’re in for a big surprise. This quiet, unassuming neighbourhood is now home to more than fifty giant teddy bears.  And it all seems strangely normal. Nobody bats an eye as they kick back with a café au lait among their fellow Parisians.  From the city that gave us Amelie, the giant teddy bears are just one of the surprising reasons, that for me, Paris never disappoints.
