Passage des Panoramas
Passage des Panoramas
We continue north along Rue Notre-Dame-des-Victories and turn left into the glass-covered Galerie Montmartre.
This is a labyrinth of passages, known from the most important of them, which runs southward from Boulevard Montmartre to Rue Saint-Marc. These glass-roofed passages were opened in 1799 and preserve their time-honoured dignity. The best known is the Passage des Panoramas.
Passage Choiseul
These passages or galleries were the forerunners of modern malls. People can shop there without the noise and danger and pollution from car traffic.
Passage Choiseul
After inspecting the galleries we return to the Bourse and at its southern end turn to the right into Rue du Quatre Septembre. When we reach Rue de Choiseul, we turn left, walk to the end of that street and continue into one more of the long passages, Passage Choiseul.
This glass-covered shopping passage has some elegant shops and lots of customers.
