Top 10 Shopping in Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois, Ile-de-France

December 11, 2021 Misti Hsu

Lingering over pain au chocolat in a sidewalk café, relaxing after a day of strolling along the Seine and marveling at icons like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe… the perfect Paris experience combines leisure and liveliness with enough time to savor both an exquisite meal and exhibits at the Louvre. Awaken your spirit at Notre Dame, bargain hunt at the Marché aux Puces de Montreuil or for goodies at the Marché Biologique Raspail, then cap it all off with a risqué show at the Moulin Rouge.

Carrousel du Louvre

The Carrousel du Louvre, located right in the heart of Paris, in the first arrondissement of the City of Lights, is, without doubt, a premier shopping destination. It is open all year long, 7 days a week (including Sundays) from 10am to 8 pm, and is home to a variety of restaurants and more than 40 premium stores including Apple Store (the first Apple Store in Paris) and Printemps du Louvre (showcasing leading luxury brands with top-of-the-range watchmaking on the mezzanine floor). The Carrousel du Louvre is a uniquely designed iconic venue, with its famous Inverted Pyramid, a fantastic architectural feat by Pei (where fans can explore the mysteries of Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code or take the perfect selfie to keep as a special Paris memento), its Charles V Hall walls, its Comédie Française studio theatre and its conference and exhibition centre. Culture runs deep in its DNA making it a cultural site to be visited on its own account! The Carrousel du Louvre can be accessed from the Louvre Museum (at the end of your visit when you leave through Allée du Grand Louvre), 99 Rue de Rivoli, the Tuileries Garden (North and South stairways) and also by direct access to the Palais Royal Musée du Louvre metro station (lines 1 and 7).

I have always recommended entering the Louvre through Security at the back of this underground shopping mall. That’s because, in my experience, far fewer people wait to get in here than at the Pyramid entrance. But when I went to enter the museum in early afternoon at this location in July, I encountered a mob scene. At least three big tour groups with leaders holding ID flags high, as well as myriad individuals, stood in what looked like a never-ending line. I refused to join the noisy herd and did not want to walk to the also-crowded exterior Pyramid entrance. Instead, I took a 20-second walk to the mall’s Starbucks store and settled in with a cup of chai for a relaxing 20 minutes. When I emerged, no one waited in line and I sailed through Security. So, I still recommend this entance. The mall makes a nice place to wait, especially during inclement weather, such as a terrible heat wave when I visited. It also can be a fun place to browse or buy in shops such as Pylones, Maxims de Paris, Pandora, Printemps du Louvre, Fragonard and the list goes on. Just don’t expect bargain prices. Apple has a big two-level store here with excellent staff, who have always solved my iPad and iPhone problems. A huge fast-food court with myriad possibilities stretches above the mall shops and Louvre entrance, providing an alternative to eating in the museum itself. There is even a McDonald’s here for fans of that chain. Clean, pay-for-use public toilets are on both the food and shop levels. Carrousel du Louvre is open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. The metro stop is Palais Royal-Musee du Louvre, line 1.

Home to over 250 different antique dealers.

This is a spectacular place to visit at least once in your life. I would suggest that you book your tickets in advance at least 1 or 2 months prior to visiting. I would suggest a guided tour the first time so you can see some of the more popular pieces and then stay afterwards to walk around and enjoy all of the other artwork such has paintings, sculptures and even Napoleon 3rd apartments!! 1/2 day will give you a quick glimpse of this beautiful place however much more time is needed to see everything but it is a MUST see while in Paris!
