The Résidence Lila has been established at the Porte des Lilas à Paris since 2006. This building was constructed outside of the historic boulevard Jourdan.
The name Lila refers to its neighbour the Porte des Lilas but it should also be noted that in Hinduism, Lila is the name of the divine ballet of souls, meaning the cosmic dance orchestrated by the gods. In addition, in Indian philosophy, it’s the godly game that hides behind worldly appearances.
Thanks to its 43 houses, the Cité internationale offers a rich cultural and artistic program to all audiences : concerts, screenings, conferences, exhibitions, shows…
Discover them in our cultural agenda CitéScope.
Every house runs thanks to a professional and dedicated team. Whether they are a receptionist, planning manager, cleaner, maintenance or security personnel, everyone is committed to ensuring that your stay is as smooth as possible.
The campus is yours so take part in organising its social and cultural life! Every year residents are elected within their house. They take care of the life there and represent students concerning the house’s administration. We also encourage our residents to engage in collective projects and in the organisation of cultural and artistic events.
