Moulin Rouge is a renowned cabaret in Paris located on Boulevard de Clichy at the intersection of Rue Blanche. Established in 1889, it instantly rose to fame for its revolutionary architecture and electrifying musical shows. These included the head-turning can-can dances, performed by the courtesans originally introduced as seductive acts. It has also been credited with inspiring the start of cabarets across Europe, making it a recognized landmark for tourists all over the world. Its extravagant décor takes guests back to the Belle Époque era, when peace and industrial progress led to a rich cultural exuberance that can still be felt today. Moulin Rouge continues to be a place of entertainment for people from all walks of life, where they can come together, mix, and enjoy marvelous music and dance performances.
