Holiday Shopping
This week, we’re going though our listes de cadeaux, courses de Noël and other holiday shopping 🎁💸
And what could be more magical than holiday shopping in the City of Light? At this time of year, Paris offers many festive markets, such as the Tuileries Garden Christmas Market or the Notre-Dame Christmas Market, full of French artisanal products and typical gourmet delicacies like vin chaud and foie gras. And don’t forget to go and admire the giant Christmas tree under the iconic Coupole of the Galeries Lafayette department store, as well as its seasonal fairytale-like window displays. Magique, n’est-ce pas ? ✨
Alors, sans plus attendre, get your wallets ready to spend on all the priceless French Kwiziq content we’ve selected for you! 🎙️
