Name of Shop: Les bouquinistes
The embankments of the Seine are an obligated passage place to go to some districts. But it is also about a pleasant walk goal, in full heart of bets, and the possibility to stroll. It is also there that are the bouquinistes, these second-hand book merchants without whom the embankments of the Seine in Paris would not be the embankments.
What To Buy: It is possible to find either on the embankments many old books magazines, but also of the engravings, and everything that has report to the edition.

Name of Shop: Le Forum des Halles
Les Halles. Cet ancien marché est aujourd'hui forum et centre commercial. A proximité se dresse l'église Ste-Eustache du XVIème siècle (ici, à droite), la bourse de commerce et son dôme (ici, à gauche) et le centre Pompidou. Le Forum des Halles est un vaste centre commercial souterrain, avec une bibliothèque et de nombreux magasins, accessibles directement depuis le métro. Ne pas confondre avec le centre Georges Ponpidou, qui est un musée d'Arts Moderne (voir mes pages sur Beaubourg).
