It gained notoriety as the inspiration for the novel and later musical ”The Phantom of the Opera.” Following the visit, you will take a leisurely walk to the nearby passages couverts (covered passages). These lively alleyways, constructed during the same period as the Opera, were designed to offer clean and sheltered commercial spaces. Today, they are home to charming little cafés, eateries, and boutiques.
Lunch is at your leisure. Then your journey will continue as you make your way to the old district of Le Marais, guided with our suggestions.
