What Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche is known for
The world's first department store (opened 1852) — and still the most beautiful. Gustave Eiffel designed the iron structure. Designer fashion, beauty, jewelry, and home in an atmosphere of calm, Left Bank elegance. The Christmas decorations alone are worth a trip to Paris.
