Discounted entry to 'Chagall, between war and peace'
21/02/2013 - 21/07/2013
Through his work, Chagall left a precious testimony of his time. He lived through the entire twentieth century, a revolution, two world wars and exile. He addressed these many experiences in his art via certain recurring key themes: his hometown, Jewish traditions, the Bible, the couple, the family and the circus. Through about a hundred works, this exhibition highlights the uniqueness with which Chagall presents war and peace.
Up to 21 July 2013 inclusive, get exhibition admission for €7.50 (instead of €11 full price) plus fast track entry on presentation of your train ticket to Paris or Marne-la-Vallée/Chessy (Disneyland ® Paris) purchased via SNCB Europe.

Promenade Plantée: a railway with a difference!
Take a leisurely walk - in mid-air. Starting behind the Bastille Opera House, this former railway line is now planted with an array of flowers and bushes to give the impression of strolling through hanging gardens. Regular stairways provide access to the viaduct along its entire route above the Paris traffic. Take a discrete peak into the average Parisian’s flat while you enjoy the city at a relaxed pace along the 2.8 miles (4.5km) of blooms and greenery all the way to the edge of the Vincennes forest.
