Shopping in Paris: The Lafayette Galleries

As we all know, the sales season approaches and if you have a really good budget, you can visit Paris and his famous Lafayette Galleries. Being a Romanian, I am very proud that at the last year season’s sales I found here a great award winner, the lingerie Romanian brand: Triumph. I like it when our brands go abroad.

The Lafayette Galleries are the biggest department store in Paris and a noteworthy monument of La Belle Époque. It can be reached by metro: Chaussée d’Antin, Opéra, or Trinité or RER: Auber (Line A) or Haussmann St-Lazare (Line E).

The first store of the firm was opened in 1893 on the corner of rue La Fayette and the interior of the present building with its beautiful cupola and Art Nouveau staircases was created in 1912.

I’ve tried to took some pictures for you, but it was very, very crowdie 🙂
