Paris: The Shopping Streets (2) Grands Magasins on Boulevard Haussmann, Rue Tronchet & La Madeleine

Start exploring this shopping area in Paris by strolling around the Place de la Madeleine.

The streets surrounding the church—with its stately neoclassical temple design—are lined with trees and elegant shops, cafés and gourmet food shops such as Fauchon. Follow Rue Tronchet from La Madeleine and you’ll head directly toward the huge department stores Printemps and Galeries Lafayette on Boulevard Haussmann . Along the way you’ll pass lots of neat shops. Keep your eyes out for a super handbag and luggage store called La Maroquinerie Parisienne on the right as you approach Boulevard Haussmann. The streets here are lined with shops all along Boulevard Haussmann leading toward the beautiful Opéra Garnier. Stop in the huge Monoprix store near Galeries Lafayette for a uniquely Parisian shopping experience. This area is a shopping haven all day long and also after dark when the Opéra creates a dramatically beautiful backdrop.
