A small market open Tuesday to Saturday in a beautiful hall at 39, rue de Bretagne in the 3rd arrondissement. People come here for lunch as much as for shopping. It is the oldest market in Paris and it takes its name from an orphanage, established in the sixteenth century, who collected the lost children and wore red. Especially the Japanese cookshop and the Cous-Cous are worth going there.

No matter what season you are, this Magritte blue sky after the sunset is the perfect moment to walk in the streets. It's the blue hour

The best pesto rosso pasta are in this market.

It can be hard to find something in this neighbourhood but this little shop has plenty of treasures to stop when you walk around here

I like these geometric shapes at Invalides. They look like a pile of wet green sand.
