Carrousel du Louvre: Ist - An expensive but beautiful place
  • Tip Rating:
  • Name of Shop: Carrousel du Louvre

    It's a huge mall beneath the Louvre Museum itself. You can find there whatever you want, more or less, and also enjoy the beautiful and modern architecture of the place, after having scrutinized the cultural wealth of the most famous french Museum. But, it's an expensive place, don't forget it either : if you take some time, you might find in the close neighbourhood loads of cheaper stores that sell the same stuff...

    What To Buy: CDs, books, food, jewels, parfumes, food...

    What To Pay: Probably too much.

  • Name of Shop: Bercy Village

    Here is a nice place to stroll around and shop. Bercy Village was created in such a way that it may look like the old villages situated in the depth of french countryside... But, unlike these villages (where it's not that easy to find shops selling "urban goods"), the Village of Bercy is full of what you may hope to find in the center of Paris... A nice alternative way to do your shopping...

    %fh %s4 %cb Palais des Congres %f* %s* %c*: XVIIth - The mall within the Palais des Congres
  • Tip Rating:
  • Paris - Some forbidden stairs outside the mall

  • Name of Shop: Palais des Congres

    The Palais des Congres is a strange place. Situated in the North West of Paris, no usual tourist would naturally make his way to its huge and round architecture. Indeed, the Palais des Congres is originally designed for receptions, meetings and professional events. It includes some huge rooms and a lecture hall. Nevertheless, the Palais des Congres also includes plenty of diverse types of stores (selling more or less expensive stuff) that may interest any attendant to the meeting in question that has some time to wander around the place...

     I stayed at the Dartangnan and it really isn't that bad. Some of my group were missing things after the maids went through cleaning though.
