one of my favorite things to do in paris is shopping at the outdoor farmers markets. paris has a law that states that every arrondisement must have an outdoors market at least once a week. this is why these markets are so well known internationally; 20 districts means that you can pick up your farmers market groceries any day of the week depending upon where you are in the city.
my favorite market is at bastille. it's one of the largest markets with the most diverse products. fruits and vegetables are of course available, but you can also get cheese, bread, yougurt and other dairy products, meat, fish, plus other miscellaneous products like soap, dishes, clothing, jewelry and toys. it's truly a one-stop shop. the food is so fresh; everything smells really good. and as you can see from the characters i photographed recently, the hawkers can be fresh too!
