| | Paris' First Arrondissement mixes historic and playful |
 | | Also on their roster in the First Arrondissement is Maitre Parfumeur et Gantier, for custom-blended scents, Massaro for custom shoes and boots and the Hotel Meurice, the only hotel in the group, selected for its "gastronomy and art of living," which, in fact, has its own shopping itinerary for guests. |
 | | Paris' First Arrondissement is a perfect setting for this kind of playfulness. |
 | | The Louvre, the Palais Royal, the Palais de Justice (seat of the French judicial system), the Conciergerie, where thousands of prisoners, including Marie Antoinette, were kept during the French Revolution, the incomparable stained glass windows of the 13th-century Sainte-Chapelle -- these are among the major landmarks of this heart-of-Paris section. |
