Take a leisurely stroll through the district, passing by ancient synagogues, high-end fashion boutiques, top-notch restaurants, art galleries, and LGBTQ+ establishments.

Venture into the Haut-Marais, also known as Upper Marais, where former factories have been transformed into chic shops and galleries.

As you continue exploring Le Marais, learn about the grand 17th-century mansions that once graced the neighborhood’s streets.

In the afternoon, follow your interests to attractions like the Maison Européenne de la Photographie (MEP), showcasing works by renowned and up-and-coming photographers, or the quirky Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature, dedicated to hunting and taxidermy. Browse through stylish boutiques, uncover hidden gardens, and treat yourself to a warm kosher pastry or a famous falafel sandwich on Rue des Rosiers. For a wider range of culinary delights, head to the Marche des Enfants Rouges for international specialties or unwind at a wine bar.
