Rue de Rivoli


The rue de Rivoli is one of the longest street in Paris starting in Le Marais and ending Place de la Conconcorde after 3 kms.
As it longs the north wing of the Louvre museum it has arcades like you can see here with shops and expensive hotels.

Oh Laurent, we stayed a block off the rue de Rivoli last November. I've sipped wine in several places along there and pressed my nose to many shop windows. I even stepped into the fabulous Hôtel Meurice and took a few quick photos. Brings back memories!

Oh I know this is long!!!

When my friend and I went to Paris for the first time back in April ..we had to meet a friend near Angelinas..but coming out of the Louvre..we turned the wrong way, ended up walking all the way back ...from Rue Des Halles, we had taken a breather for coffee and water..long long walk.

Second time there in August, I had no problem and found my way there from Le Invalides...walking :-)
