(Last Update: 03.09.2024) Since the concept of shopping malls is not very common in the city center of Paris, it is not possible to come across giant shopping malls like in Turkey, since boutiques or multi-storey stores on the street are preferred for shopping. Here, life mostly flows on the streets, so life is outside. You wander from street to street, from store to store, and shop in more humane conditions, just like in Istanbul in the past.
Of course, if Parisians want to engage in mass consumption, they can go to hypermarkets like Carrefour or large shopping malls far from the city, but in the center of Paris, life goes on in its normal course, in humane conditions and in the full flow of life, without disrupting its texture.
However, there are three types of applications developed for indoor mass shopping in the city center: Lafayette, Spring You can go to multi-storey stores such as or shop in arcades or Forum des Halles You go to a huge complex like or “marché (starterYou can find what you are looking for in the indoor places called ")".
I have mentioned an important part of the arcades and multi-storey stores as much as possible in my previous articles. This time I want to talk about Marché Saint-Germain, one of the most beautiful “marchés” in Paris.
In the 6th arrondissement of Paris, Boulevard Saint GermainIn a lower parallel of, Saint Germain des Près Odeon This market place, located just behind the Mabillion metro station, is a nice place to go and see - if you are wandering around that area - with its boutiques and the "covered market" at the back. five in paris Apple One of its stores is also located here.
The section with boutiques may not be very attractive for people like us who have seen the best of shopping malls, but this "marketplace" where you can go to the back and find the most attractive of vegetables, fruits, delicatessen and seafood, is truly a feast for the eyes. In fact, if you want to skip lunch at the fast food and beverage venues here, you will be doing a smart thing in terms of having a pleasant time and tasting delicious flavors.
If you are staying in another part of the city and you have no business in these parts, I cannot say that you should come and see the special Marché Saint-Germain. Saint Germain a day of touring or Luxembourg GardenI think you will like it if you stop by here after a walk in . While you're here, nearby Saint Sulpice ChurchIt might be nice to see too. Moreover Odéon Theater And right next to it.
To walk to Marché Saint-Germain Odeon'from St. Germain des PrèsAll you have to do is look left while walking towards , and look right when walking in the opposite direction. You will come across it on one of the streets you turn your head :)
Metro If you want to make pinpoint shots with M4 of the line “St. Germain des Près”, M10 line “Mabillon”, M4 or M10 It is possible to get here by getting off at the "Odéon" station of the lines.
Of course, there are many indoor markets of this type, large and small, in Paris; I will try to talk about them when the time comes.
