What to expect

  1. Carreau du Temple
    20m
    This building was a second-hand clothing market from 1863. It kind of embodies the history of Le Marais, as it went from a poor neighborhood to a trendy one. Now it's used as an exhibition hall.
  2. Marche Couvert des Enfants Rouges
    20m
    This is the oldest food market in Paris. It's included in so many food tours, documentaries, and books. Parisians love to come here on weekends, we'll see together why.
  3. La Rue des Rosiers
    40m
    La rue des Rosiers is the heart of the Jewish district of Paris. There has been a Jewish community in Paris since the Middle Age, and coming to this street is a great way to discover the Jewish culture.
  4. Place des Vosges
    20m
    A Royal square dating back to 1612. Truly the landmark of Le Marais. Victor Hugo used to live on that square. We'll see why it's iconic and how beautiful it is.
