The City of Lights lights up
from the Grand Palais
to Rue Saint Honoré
with the spirit of the holiday.
Pleine de couleurs.
De nombreux fleurs.
Avenue Montaigne, Place de Vendôme,
red, green, and gold.
The crisp, cold air feels warmer,
and when you thought it couldn’t get more magical than the former,
The City of Lights lights up.
As if Paris wasn’t already beautiful enough, every corner and cobblestone gets enhanced with captivating details during the holiday season. Whether it’s the festive Prada window displays that light up Printemps or the serene blue and white orbs that garnish the Champs Élysées, the ferris wheel at Place de la Concorde or the little bursts of vitality that line every street, the city truly comes to life. There’s no escaping the holiday spirit or the magic that comes with it.
Joyeux Noël et Joyeuses fêtes.
