Paris Shopping

  1. Marché aux Fleurs

    Since 1808, blooms have been sold at this flower market, making it the oldest market of any kind in Paris. This is Paris, so buy some roses and find someone to give them to. On Sunday it transforms into Marché aux Oiseaux, a twittering bird market, so if the flowers aren't enough buy your beloved a peacock.
