Top 10 Things to do in 2nd Arr. - Bourse, Ile-de-France
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. Awaken your spirit at Notre Dame, bargain hunt at the Marché aux Puces de Montreuil or for goodies at the Marché Biologique Raspail, then cap it all off with a risqué show at the Moulin Rouge.

The Opéra Comique was founded in 1714 under the reign of Louis XIV. It is one of the oldest French dramatic and musical institutions along with the Opéra de Paris and the Comédie-Française. Its history was alternately turbulent and prestigious until it was listed on the register of national theaters in 2005.

We often go to the opera in London but have never seen La Dame Blanche. It was a truly charming production with subtitles in French and English for the singing, and English for the dialogue . Excellent singers and a beautifully judged production. We were in the 3rd gallery row V 37 and 39 with a view of 3/4 of the stage. The legroom in this €35 seat was so woeful that my 6 ft 2 OH couldnt get in. I was ok at 5.ft 4...just. Luckily it was back row so he could perch on the upturned seat and stand. It is a measure of the quality of the production that he didn't mind. As others say, the building itself is wonderful and the bar salon is magnificent. Wine is €6 and a lot of locals had an emmenthal baguette sandwich for €6 at the interval which would have been handy to know about. Apparently they are engaged in rediscovering their repertoire from their early history at the moment. The man next to me pointed out a box near the stage and said that a Duke had donated the land for the theatre and in return the family could always use the box. Many times the city have tried to get it back for other uses but have failed to overturn the covenant on the land. A fabulous night out.

We attended a mass here and it was really sacred. It was very calm giving the chance to properly pray and the attendees were really nice.

This Louis the XIVth Royal Place is very elegant for it"s architecture and fashion shops. Half way between les Halles / Montorgueil area and the Opéra Garnier, you will stroll next to Galerie Vivienne, Jardins du Palais Royal, passing through the authentic Japanese restaurants in Paris. On your right going towards the Bourse, find Bistrot Chez Georges, on you left head to the Louvre. On avenue de L'Opéra indulge on some Pierre Hermé sweet delicacies. Not far from Place Vendôme, Jewelers, fashion, Chocolate shops.... This Place des Victoires is very well located. Can tell you more about its History on PM if you are interested

Luxury stores and luxury hotels all in one vicinity is a very understandable tandem. The rich and famous paradise for items that caught their fancy. We only had our window-shopping to see how it is in this part of Paris specially in this kind of merchandise. Strolling along a quieter street from Place de l'Opera to the Place Vendome until somewhere we can find another Metro.
