It can be hard to find time to both shop and take in all the cultural sights that Paris has to offer, especially on a weekend break. This street in the heart of the Marais is bursting with eye catching boutiques to give visitors a shopping fix on a Sunday when the rest of Parisian shops tend to close their doors.
