12 Farmers Markets The Market: Avenue du President Wilson. This Paris open air market is a wonderful sightseeing idea when in Paris. It takes place every Wednesday and Saturday morning, from about 7am to 2:30pm. One of our favorite merchants is Joel Thiebault, who sells delicious vegetables and claims that Iena has the biggest open market in Paris. The selection of food is tremendous and we've never managed to get to the end. It's hard to fully describe the variety and quality of the food here without seeing it for yourself! The selection ranges from produce to meats, fish, flowers, pasta, breads, sweets and even house wares. Customers have been coming here for years and frequent their favorite vendors. You frequently hear: 'Bonjour Madame! What a pleasure to see you this week !Today we have delicious tomatoes ! I recommend you try one! What we regularly buy there:  Fruits, especially what is in season, as the farmers have just picked them  Vegetables: Prices are good and the vegetables are fresh and delicious.  Flowers: Prices are the best in the quartier with wide selections  Fish: The fish merchants drive down early from Brittany and Normandy with their fresh catches. You can buy everything from fresh lobster from Brittany, to many kinds of oysters to freshly caught sole and others. All vendors are very helpful, so if you're not sure what kind of oyster (they'll ask if you want them large or small, salty or less so, etc) don’t hesitate to ask!  Cheese: It's a staple of French life!  Italian pasta: Even Italian vendors come here to sell their homemade pasta, sausages and oils. They love it if you can speak a few words of Italian.  Olives and salads: Each of the markets in this area has different vendors who sell wide selections of olives, tapenades and side dishes. Each has his or her own special recipe. We enjoy exploring and trying them all.  Simple wines: Nothing fancy, but you can find inexpensive table wines here.  Bread: Good bread, especially whole wheat and grain breads.  Snails and stuffed mussels: They are delicious and excellent as a first course.

It all began in May 1891, when Prince Roland Bonaparte bought nearly 3,000 square metres (33,000 square feet) of grounds on avenue d’Iéna in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, which today remains the city’s most elegant neighbourhood. Situated between the statue of George Washington and the Eiffel Tower, the site was selected by the prince for its breathtaking views over the Eiffel Tower and the Seine River. The prince commissioned architect Ernest Janty, renowned for his reconstruction work of the Louvre and Tuileries palaces for Napoleon III, 1925… to design an elegant home and reception areas in order to receive notable guests. Throughout it four years of construction between 1892 & 1896, the building’s design and construction caught the attention of Parisians for it’s blend of 17 th and 19 th century architectural, simply known as “eclectic style.” The palace’s façade is inspired by the Louis XIV style, with intricate masonry of stone from L’Oise. Sculptors Steiner and Houguenade, who also rose to fame for their craftsmanship on the Louvre and the Tuileries Palaces, were commissioned to carve the façade’s “eclectic style,” featuring the family’s coat of arms, lion heads and antlers. Today … On the 17 th of December 2010 the group has opened Shangri- La Hotel, Paris, representing its first property in Europe, a flagship of intimate scale and local historic significance.
