Tourists and Parisians alike crowd the narrow pre-Revolutionary streets to absorb the atmosphere of this quaint neighborhood. Sunday morning is a popular time for strolling along the streets when many of the shops are open, which is unusual in other parts of Paris. Start your stroll in the picturesque Place des Vosges, a beautiful historic square surrounded by an arcade lined with a great mix of elegant and artistic shops.
