Visit of the Opéra / Madeleine district

Typical of Haussmannian Paris, this district is filled with stores, restaurants, theaters and concert halls such as the Garnier Opera House. We’ll also discover the Madeleine Church, and take a break at the Vendôme Square.

The Vendôme Square: An idea of Louis XIV, this square was for a long time used as a gathering point for political events. Today, it houses luxury shops such as the Chaumet jewellery. At the square’s center can be seen the famous Vendôme Square Column, built during the time of Napoleon I.
