Paris pedestrian streets, paris shopping, rue Montorgueil

RueMontorgeuil

Pass beneath the iron filagree gate and you’ll enter a street like no other in Paris. Trust me, you won’t make it through this neighborhood without buying something: fine pastries, cheeses, chocolates, rotisserie, charcuterie, flowers, all gourmet quality.  Not a shopper?, then take it all in at one of the cafes or restaurants dotting every corner. A happening place full of history and authenticity. Historic houses decorated with elaborate ironwork can be found at #17, #23, and #25, Rue Montorgueil. Many of the buildings on the street also feature painted facades.

Pedestrians rejoice. A few delivery trucks make their way through at times but mostly you’re free to saunter along sniffing and devouring all the colorful activity with your eyes. Cameras down, enjoy the moment and the buzz of the locals. Rue Montorgueil’s name translates literally to “Mount Pride”. Kids love this street; watch for the walking balloon vendor.

Tips: Charles Chocolatier,  Stohrer patisserie,  Le Rocher de Cancale, L’escargot are some of the places you’ll want to stop in. Streets including Rue Dussoubs and Rue Saint-Sauveur date to the 11th century.

How to get here:

Metro:
Etienne Marcel (Line 4)

After the guillotining of Marie Antoinette, Robespierre, Madame du Barry, Louis XVI of France, Louis Phillips II, Duke of Orleans, Princess Elisabeth of France and thousands of others on this, La Place de la Concorde during the Reign of Terror (1793-94), these fountains were erected 50 years later commemorating France’s maritime industry. They frame the 3,000 year old obelisk.
