Lingering over pain au chocolat in a sidewalk café, relaxing after a day of strolling along the Seine and marveling at icons like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe… the perfect Paris experience combines leisure and liveliness with enough time to savor both an exquisite meal and exhibits at the Louvre.

If you take the Paris Metro and get off at Chatelet Les Halles you will find a modern underground shopping mall, Forum des Halles, the second most visited shopping mall in the Paris region with 42 million visitors. Les Halles used to be a fresh food market but it was demolished in 1971 and replaced by Forum des Halles. One flight of stairs from Forum will take you directly to vicinity of Eglise St. Eustache. The origins of Saint Eustache date back to the 13th century. A modest chapel was built in 1213, dedicated to Sainte-Agnès, a Roman martyr.The small chapel was funded by a merchant at Les Halles.The church became the parish church of the Les Halles area in 1223 and was renamed Saint-Eustache in 1303. The name of the church refers to Saint Eustace, a Roman general of the second century AD who was burned, along with his family, for converting to Christianity. The church is beautiful with stain glasses and is an example of a Gothic structure with Renaissance and and classical details. With 8,000 pipes, the organ is the largest pipe organ in France, surpassing the organs of Saint Sulpice and Notre Dame de Paris.

This street is known for its open-air market: a popular destination for Christmas time shopping.

We discovered Rue Montorgueil many years ago while staying at a nearby hotel, on a trip to Paris. We rediscovered it on our most recent trip. It is a street full of life. There are countless delis, cafes, restaurants, boutiques, bakeries, and other stores selling just about everything and anything one would wish to buy. We loved the variety of cheeses and the crusty bread each morning, and a bottle of red towards the evening! We must return!

Built in 1826 in neoclassical style, Galerie Véro-Dodat is listed as a French historical landmark. The diagonal grid of black and white tiles is just one of its charms.
