Hello sodesnay,





As said, there are markets all over the city everyday. They generally close up about one so get there in the morning. Good idea to check the website.





Some have bascially just food, others have a mix of everything. They sure can be interesting.

Porte de Clignancourt - the big flea market.




|||



Open air market on rue Cler.





Also rue Mouffetard





Do check to see the days and times open.

Just remember don%26#39;t make the same mistake as my wife and i the %26quot;Porte de Clignancourt%26quot; market is only open Saturday, Sunday and Monday%26#39;s from 9am till 8pm....Jimmy





The market at %26quot;Porte De Vanves%26quot;,14e( Metro:Porte de Vanves) is a bit more upscale but so are the prices : Open Saturday and Sunday from 8:30 am till 1pm ....Jimmy

My favorite market in the one on Blvd Richard Lenoir on Sunday morning.

Most markets are held in the morning (not on Mondays) but some are now in the afternoon.



Hopefully above link will work.

I was pleasantly suprised on a Sunday morning



as I came up from the metro on my way to



church and found the open market at Blvd.



Richard Lenoir. It was large with a great



variety of goods and the set up to permit



people to comfortably move throughout.
