Where to Shop in Paris: 8 Most Iconic Covered Passages
Vložit
- čas přidán 11. 03. 2022
- In this video, you'll discover 8 of the best places to shop in Paris featuring the most charming Covered Passages (1800's Antique Shopping Malls) including The Arcades at Palais Royal, Galerie Vivienne, Passage Jouffroy, Passage des Panoramas, Passage Verdeau, Passage Choiseul, Passage du Grand Cerf & Galerie Vero-Dodat.
To really understand the covered passages, imagine what it was like to shop before the streets had cobblestone. Roads were dirty and muddy. It was hot in the summer and cold in the winter. Manufacturers and merchants brought their wares to crowded street markets. If the merchants weren't coming to see you at the palace, shopping was an errand to be endured.
Enjoy!

This is better than anything on the travel channel!
I completely agree!
04:44 like the quick kiss when you both walk in the passage. Even though it's for the camera it still communicate how lovely you are.
Thank you for sharing these passages. I always like to walk inside and admire the architecture.
My husband and I are loving your videos. It's so nice to see folks around our age posting travel videos about our favourite city!
I’m still not over those ham baguette sandwiches!! LOL Dying to sink my choppers into 1 or 2, great job guys!! ✌🏻🇺🇸
@@LesFrenchiesTravel lol I have never been too France
So far, the most detailed, organized video series I've watched. I'm going to Paris in September and your channel has helped me so much. You truly covered everything
@@LesFrenchiesTravel would you recommend renting a scooter instead? Since I watched on one of your videos that renting a car is not advisable. TIA
Well Les Frenchies you guys are giving out some of the best secrets of Paris... The passages are one of our favorite things to do in Paris, takes you back to old world stepping into them, and if the weather is difficult they are a must. They can get full in the summer, even this June during pandemic lunch time was a crush. Vivienne and Panorama are the ones I like the best, but they are all worthwhile...
Maybe you guys could do a "Best Cafes of the Covered Passages" episode or episodes... On y va!
that beat dropped haaaard on 4:20 mark, nice surprise xD. Good video and very informative, well done!
Great to know the passages. On those rainy days, stroll through each and enjoy the day out...and maybe a nap at the nap store. zzzzzzzzz
I have been to one Passage in Paris but didn't know there were so many, I will have to go back.
Thom loves Gypsy Jazz (also known as Manouche a la romani jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt and Joe Passe. A video about where we could find this music genre would be great! 🥰
Excellente idée de visite, magnifique, Merci à vous deux, je vous suis pas à pas, à bientôt.
There is another interesting (at least for me) passage … Passage du Bourgeois l’Abbé. There you will find maybe the last actual woodworker still in Paris … A. Lulli & Fils.
When my husband & I visited Paris in early 2019 we bought him a cane at the Fayet Cane Shop. It’s an old family business, they actually “fit” you for the proper length of cane and comfortable handle ‘to’ your hand, it was fascinating. Loved the passage, great gem store there as well. Thank you for this video. Missing Paris. ❤️
I love your videos could you possibly do a video on fabric stores in Paris as i also knit I will make note of the knitting shops you've shown as well
Yes I did see the knitting stores they are now on my to do list when I go back to Paris I’ve been to the fabric stores near Sacre Cour but they’re small storefronts with gimmicky fabrics I wonder where locals buy fabric from
No Tzatkes in les Arcades de Palais Royal, c'est vraiment la classe, and yes so are your videos and their content, they animate my beloved Paris. Great memories of my adolescence.
Your videos are so preparing me for my visit to Paris at the end of April, very excited.
Another fantastic video. Made my day! Thank you!
"On y va!" you gotta create some merch around this! :)
Oh My Gosh; perhaps my favorite video yet. Antoine, that little wave is adorable. And how great to see dear Fabien! Love it!
thanks for another interesting video~~~
You two are amazing, your videos are so informative. We marked all locations that we were interested in seeing dans le beau Paris, in our memorable 5 day stay. Thank you. God bless your kindness.
Oh la la! I had no idea there were so many passages/galleries in Paris. This has been included to my list when I return. J’abore une librairie! Un ancien c’est encore mieux! Once again, thanks for your tips! I so enjoy watching your videos. 💃🏽
Another great video!
I’m surprised you don’t have more subscribers, this is great information
I love the covered passages... Highly Instagrammable without being so touristy.
@@LesFrenchiesTravel discovering Paris with your videos feels very authentic. Fun to watch and exciting. ;)
I love you guys. My fiancé is from Chambery, so your Parisian videos are very entertaining to us. Thank you, Merci! ❤
I looks so forward to your videos- this one was a 10/10. Thank you!
This was a lovely excursion.
Loooooved it!
I just got back from Paris and I must say your videos have been very helpful for my trip 🙏 Merci beaucoup!!
Underrated places to visit...ate at Japanese restaurant at entrance to Passage Choiseul last December. Very good area to dine. Thank you again for sharing more fantastic places to see!
Erick, I don't really think The Passages are underated, there is a certain attitude, for using them....and guess what it depends a lot on the weather, if it's really cold....and or a bit too hot, Parisiens tend to use the passages, says my French father.
Thank you so much for sharing your indepth knowledge of Paris...
Un gros merci, grandement appréciée!
Good to know!!, It's Lovely.
I am french , born and brought up in Vincennes (outskirts Paris) (then went to live in Normandy, then South of France Pau, and now retired in Bretagne seaside) and ... must tell you ...
I never knew all these " Passages" (just one or two) - YOU know more places than we true Parisians know (well, you know when you are young and live in Paris or its outskirts , our live is more : " métro-boulot-dodo" (means = full up stinking metro going to work- boulot = at work- dodo = bedtime) - saturdays filling the fridge, sunday having a rest : not taking metro and go in the crowds ...
in fact ... to really enjoy Parsi ... better live there when older and retired ! - LOL ... I enjoy ALL of your vids , amazing !
@@LesFrenchiesTravel AND ... we all enjoy it with you ! - Merci ...
Love the video. A suggestion for a video.. places to visit with kids.
Thanks for the tour, I remember dining at Bistro Vivienne @ Gallerie Vivienne, hope to return there soon!
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video. All d covered passages looked lovely for shopping.
@@LesFrenchiesTravel 🙂
We land two months from today! Can't wait
I love your channel! Thank you❤️
Thank you for the brief escapism in these troubling times. 10/10, keep up the fantastic work.
Fantastic segment! I’ve often seen the ‘Arcades’ of London, but NEVER have seen these ‘passages’ or ‘galleries’ featured in Paris. Thank you! Truly unique! I’m inspired make a trip to Paris and visit all of the passages you shared!
There are around 20 of them in Paris. Every time when I visit Paris ( for a day) and you go on foot from Gare Du Nord ( Trainstation) direction Palais Royal you can do the whole sequence they showed. Starting with Passage Verdeau.
Love the metro stops included so important- really enjoyed the covered passages filled with shops & restaurants
Oh my. I didn't go to these places when I went to Paris in 2018. 😅
Oh my goodness, how wonderful! Thank you.
Wonderful!! I love the Passages. I was hoping you would do a vlog on this and here it is!!! I sent my husband on an errand to the Passage des Panoramas last weekend. He is a huge stamp collector... He was supposed to be five minutes and stayed for hours... LOL There is also a wonderful restaurant fyi called Canard et Champagne. There used wonderful shopping at Le louvre des Antiquaires $$$ but I believe it is all closed now. It was like visiting a museum, there were such treasures!! Love your vlogs!! One thing though, no such thing as a naughty nap... LOL
As always a pleasure to watch your videos 🙂
Feel the same
This this one of your best guides yet!!!!!!! MERCI! Love your vlogs!❤️
Thanks so much for sharing this
When I come there I probably would have miss this covered passage shops
Going to use this vlog as a guide
Thanks again
Love this! I will be in Paris April 1 for 9 days and will explore several of the covered passages. Merci beaucoup!!!!
That was fabulous. Thank you for taking us on that tour
C'est magnifique!
even though I have been in Paris 5 times before, I use your videos to plan my tour to Paris this july the 9th. Great with your Ideas and that I can rely on videos. Thanks
Love your videos! You seem like a very nice and still in love couple. I plan to visit Paris later this year. I am an older, single traveler who would like to hook up with a guide, like Fabien, for a few days to show me around Paris and of course, to practice and improve my French. Greetings from my ranch in Texas. I am a Mexican Cowboy at heart! Keep up the good work.
Loved it, bought an English language book at the magical bookstore in Gallerie Vivienne on a visit to Paris 10 years ago! Spent a week in 2017 and discovered 4 of the passages. Hopefully get back again.
@@LesFrenchiesTravel Read an article on the passages and went on the interweb to find them. Love what you guys do. Makes my wife and I pretty jealous😂 Would love to see a video on the Promenade Plantee and around the Arsenal on the Seine. Most tourists don't even know they exist.
WONDERFUL TRIP THRU PASSAGES THAT I NEVER SAW IN 1968 WHEN I STUDIED FASHION. MY LESSONS
WERE VERY CLOSE TO PALAIS ROYALE BUT THEN THIS PLACE WAS DESERTED AND I USED TO HAVE MY LUNCH IN THE COURTYARD AND SKETCH A STATUE THAT WAS IN THE MIDDLE..I GUESS ITS NO LONGER THERE! WHAT A BEAUTIFUL PLACE IT IS NOW. THERE WAS SOME KIND OF HISTORY OF THE PALAIS ROYALE WHICH I DON'T REMEMBER. ALSO COULD YOU DO A VIDEO OF WHERE "COLETTE " LIVED VAN GOUGH HOME AND THE CAFE LILAS WHERE EDITH PIAF SANG AND OWNED ! OTHERS LIKE CHANEL HOME ETC.?
I HAVE PASSED ON YOUR CHANEL TO PEOPLE WHO TRAVEL TO FRANCE INCLUDING MY DOCTOR! Hahaha
Your content is delightful! Just to let you know (sorry, you might already know this), Ateliers Ouvertes in Belleville is happening May 20-23. Artists open their studios (which are oftentimes their homes) throughout Belleville. Some can be grungy, some are glamorous, some are like movie sets. I hope you guys make a video. Art and real estate!!!! Maybe we'll bump into one another. I remember taking my vegetarian friend to Passage Brady in the 10th, it's all Indian restaurants. Nothing fancy, but there were some gems. Hope that place survived the pandemic.
@@LesFrenchiesTravel let's go - On y va !!
Fantastic! Love your videos 😍😍❤💖👍
Thanks for the tour of these hidden gems! I bet some tourist have no idea about these passages. I will post your video to the Visit Paris - What to do in Paris Facebook page that I belong to. I've posted a couple of your other videos there because they are so helpful in trip planning. You should join it. I'm sure you'll get a lot more views and subscribers.
Best video ever! Thanks! 👍😀
Wonderful content as always!
This is great thank you!
Really well done ! Thanks
I love your videos! keep em coming!
You guys are awesome. Love the work and content. It's especially great for new travelers like myself
Great information. Btw, I really appreciate your listing the metro stations for each attraction on all of your videos. Super helpful!
I love your videos! I live in Basel and I go to Paris a lot. I have learned so much from you two. Thank you! Merci!!
Bonne chance et succès continu
Love your videos♥
Wow that a lot of passage nice to know thank for the amazing video
Les Frenchies! You’ve just made my year with this video. You never know entirely what you’re getting when booking abroad. My daughters and I are staying at the Hotel Chopin this summer, and just saw it featured in this video. I’m jumping up and down that we’re staying in one of these iconic passageways featured on the Les Frenchies channel! Thank you for yet another of the best travel videos I’ve seen online!
Hi LesFrenches! I have been to Paris 4 xs. Your videos have helped me learn more about Paris than any book our guide. I now have a sense of where things are and what is in eAch area to enjoy. Such fun to engage the brain in a meaningful way!! Merci!!
You two do such a great job on every video, so organized. So pleasant! I really love it
Bonjour, we did some passages today thanks to your recommendations. Merci Les Frenchies.
Now I will have to go back as I missed these. Long way from Australia but love it every time I visit. My favourite city.
Just Amazing 👏 😍
Loving all your content, we are visiting in 2 weeks. Anywhere in Paris which is teenage friendly or something that a teenage girl would love
so helpful >3 merci beaucoup !!!
@@LesFrenchiesTravel I ENJOYED IT BETTER THAN ANY ANOTHER TRAVEL CHANNEL ! THANKS !
Nice channel thanks for sharing
Superb
So good 👍
Pretty cool about booking a "nap" ! Brisbane, Australia has some of these "galleries" too, but not as elaborate (or antique) as these.
Love your channel!!!! Addicted. My husband and I are going to Paris for a day and a half (I know not long enough), then Nice for a week . Any chance you could do a video on one of these ?? 1. Paris in 24 hours 2. Best soufflés in Paris 3. Best coffee shops 4. Top 3 things you have to see in Paris if you can only have a day there. 5. Top Persian restaurants that are must try’s.
Again , thanks for doing these videos. It’s helping us quite a bit! Would love to hear how you ended up in Paris (unless I missed it) and a Nice / Monaco video.
You can go to the description box to read how they ended up in Paris. Also, only will be in Paris for a day and a half, so I've been trying to narrow a few things down to do.
@@Sutherland2 it’s a long layover. It is what it is . We are going to Nice for vacation, but our flight stops there and we leave the next day. There is no reason fo for us not to sightsee and go to a nice restaurant, just because Paris is a place you’ll need a week to enjoy . I kindly ask for opinions for a quick layover that can’t be changed. Thanks for your kindness in advance 🙂
Found your channel yesterday and had to subscribe, I'll be in Paris for a few days in June and being a solo traveler I was wondering if you can recommend a tour guide who's not too expensive ( I'm Aussie and the Australian dollar really sucks against the Euro). Thanks for the vids, I've found them very useful.
@@LesFrenchiesTravel Thank you.
We are coming to Paris Jan and Feb. Would you two be willing to meet for a coffee?? My husband and I love your videos!!!
Love
There are many covered passages like this in London, England and some cities in Italy.
I want to go there.
The great western arcade Birmingham..
@@LesFrenchiesTravel the GWA is not as grand as your French ones but still it’s very pleasant to go into...rather than the cookie cutter malls we see built today..
@@LesFrenchiesTravel “ the lanes” in Brighton Sussex are cute too as are the galleried medieval shopping rows in Chester ,Cheshire...with its nearby Roman amphitheatre..
@@LesFrenchiesTravel today’s interpretation of shopping venues is “Mcarthur Glen “ shopping at Cannock..
Wow, I didn't think there were so many 😄
Can't wait to go visit 👍
Should be in Paris at the end of April and have a little question for you: since I understand it will be during zone C Paris spring vacation, do you believe some things will be closed?
One of your videos done in August you say things can be closed so I wondered for the 2 week spring if it was the same?
Thanks 😊 and maybe I'll see you there making a video 😄
You’ll be fine as things don’t close because of the zone C holidays
@@vanessad.8661 Thank you Vanessa
@@gaila.8830 you’re very welcome I’m from Paris and I never saw anything closed during the holidays;)
Please do more on Thrift shops
I’ve been to all of those over half dozen trips - love them!! Especially Vivienne!
I would love you to devote several videos to all the different puces/marches/fleas - we always hit those! Vance’s/St Ouen. So many inside St Ouen!
Yes would love videos on flea markets, puces
we're not talking about naughty naps LOL. that should be your video, where to go for naughty naps.
Following the links you provided, thank you. My website search shows Palais Royal is free to individuals? Is this so? I didn't detect you having to pay an entrance fee?
@@LesFrenchiesTravel Thank you! Arriving April 5! Also, are Health Passports still required for entry into museums? (US is amber country now.)
How can I do this personalised tour? You probably mention this in the vid but I’m impatient. 😊 Travelling by myself in 2 weeks. Hope I’m not too late to organise this. Back to vid. Cheers from 🇦🇺
Bon Joi
❤❤❤❤
We’ve got these type of shops in England…
@@LesFrenchiesTravel I like the Burlington arcade in Birmingham..
Is there a link to book you guide?
Where can you purchase French clothes in a size 14/16 ? Does it even exist? 😀
Galerie Vivienne, the closest metro is Bourse
Food at Galeries Lafayette .
