A visit to the 'gouts' of Paris is a great way to experience the city, minus the tourism. Many out-of-town visitors are unaware of the underground site, which is a relief for those in search of an "off the beaten path" attraction in the city. What's more, the sewers are a fun and informative way both to explore the city and gain knowledge of Paris' history. The attraction is actually part of the sewer network, with its entrance located on the left bank of the Seine. Aside from perusing the elaborate museum, visitors can witness the workings of the main sewer of the Avenue Bosquet, a sewer of the rue Cognac-Jay, the storm drain at the Place de la Resistance and the waste water outlet that runs to the Acheres treatment plant. Yes, the air may seem a bit tainted at times, though others have argued no smell whatsoever. Nevertheless, the smell is nowhere near the overwhelming fetor one might expect. The museum itself is made up of numerous corridors that feature several real examples of the machinery that was (and still is) used in the underground sewer network, among many other exhibits. Visitors will not only get an idea of how the city's sewer system works, but also how it was developed over time and how it relates to various other historical aspects of Paris.
