PARIS/FRANCE: The world-famous Moulin Rouge cabaret venue is a Parisian treasure
. Opened in 1889 during the innovative and optimistic Belle Époque, the Moulin Rouge was a welcome addition to the city. France was no longer at war, a century was coming to an end and creativity was blooming — what better time to launch a dance hall? Founders Joseph Oller and Charles Zidler were confident that their place would outshine all others with its huge dance floor, many mirrors and atmosphere of total euphoria.
. Visitors can pair the dazzling spectacle of a Moulin Rouge show with dinner and Champagne, or with other Parisian highlights, such as a visit to the Eiffel Tower and a cruise along the River Seine. VIP seating is available, but be advised that all Moulin Rouge tickets are likely to sell out. Advance booking is recommended in order to secure your seats.

History:
The Moulin Rouge is recognizable for its trade mark. The Red Mill.
The red stylized windmill designed by Adolphe Willette has become one of the iconic images of Montmartre.
The Moulin Rouge was an immediate success
.
Le Tout Paris flocked there to dance the famous quadrille that the Englishman Charles Morton soon called French Cancan!
Toulouse-Lautrec Moulin Rouge la Goulue poster – 1891.
The first strip-teasers, French Can-Can and semi nude dancers appeared on stage in 1893 and made the reputation of the Moulin Rouge throughout the world!
The names of the legendary dancers such as La Goulue, la Môme Fromage and Nini Pattes en l’air are for ever attached to the history of the Moulin Rouge.
They were also immortalized in the many drawings and paintings by Toulouse-Lautrec.
French Cancan was obviously condemned by the high-minded society of the time for its provocative, vulgar and sometime obscene style, but this didn’t deter the Moulin Rouge to be one of the most popular entertainment halls of Paris throughout the decades!
Tourists still flock to the Moulin Rouge to attend the shows which evolved through the decades.
PYTON SNAKES:
Even a Aquarium/swimming pool is being raised from the underground of the cabaret where a beautiful girl in the scene with Les Pirates is jumping out in the water and swimming with several large Pyton snakes. – At Moulin Rouge.
Vulgarity has given way to erotic shows, a style which appeals to a wider public.
The Moulin Rouge shows are led by the gorgeous Doriss Girls.

The Moulin Rouge has retained its Belle Epoque decoration, but the building is now lost in the fumes of exhaust pipes.
