Galeries Lafayette (Department Store) Paris
Tip of the day: Visit the Galeries Lafayette 40 blvd Haussmann (near the Opera) Enjoy the spectacular steel and glass dome and shop for some fun Paris souvenirs on the top floor. Plus, you may have a chance to purchase your french striped shirt! http://www.galerieslafayette.com/ The rooftop observation deck closed within minutes of our arrival. (If only I hadn't stopped at the Longchamp purse area to check the sale prices). Thus, the pictures below are shot through the glass on the 7th floor of the store. Imagine these views unobstructed by glass and make your way to the Galeries Lafayette!
