This week I'm taking you on a treasure hunt around Paris.

But first, we need to start with a Paris word association game.

When I say river, I bet you think Sen.

And that is fair enough because it is one of the most iconic parts of the Paris landscape.

But did you know that there was once another river? In fact, for most of

Paris's history, there was another river running through this city. I'm talking about La Bievre

river that ran from the southeast corner of the city and emptied into the seine, a much smaller

river, but very important in the history of the city. That is until 1912 when the last of it was buried over and built upon.

The Biev was forgotten. However, if you know where to look, there are medallions, there are street signs, there are markers,

and there are indications of how the city was built based on where this river once flowed.

And guess what? They're thinking to bring it back.

In this episode, I'm going to show you how to find the Biev River of Paris.

I'm actually going to walk through a part of the river and I'm going to talk about the

future of it how maybe one day you will be able to see it too. And at one point I'm going to get

particularly nerdy and I'm going to take you deep underground to where two of my Paris fascinations

collide. This is the earful tower. My name is Oliver G and B is for Biev. The

but first I want to introduce today's co-host.

It is a pilgrim of the Biev, Lena Nordenji.

Hello, Lena.
