Le Louvre des Antquaires is home to the most posh, most high toned and fancy, most expensive antiques you can imagine. WINDOW shopping is the key phrase here.
Conseil d'Etat of Frace
Around the corner from the conseil is the Comedie-Francaise, France's most important national theatre.
Palais Royal, built as a home for Cardinal Richelieu. I'm pretty sure the striped poles are a modern addition...but who knows...maybe Richelieu loved Zebras...?
Ah, I found a date. 1986. I would still like to think that Richelieu liked Zebras...
I love Paris in the springtime!
I saw this window display and decided it deserved to be acknowledged as part of the walk. I liked it lots.
The theatre of Palais Royal. It's still in use today and shows mostly comedies.
French National Library!
The famous reading room! Too bad all of this was behind glass, and I was not allowed to touch.
This is the French Stock Market- the French version of New York Stock Exchange on Wall Street.
This walk ended with a stroll through the Passage des Panoramas. It is one of the oldest existing covered passages in Paris. There was lots of eye candy along this walkway- fun restaurants, shops, and boutiques. I enjoyed seeing a part of Paris that had a slightly different feel to it.
