If you want to buy creams, shampoo etc. at better prices than in a regular phamacy, go to this one (in saint germain des pres bus 84 from home)) which is cheaper.

Le Marais has been a trendy place for about twenty years now, You’ll notice that the architecture is way far different from what we are used to see in Paris with the Haussmann buildings and all, and that’s precisely what is enjoyable in Le Marais: you have the feeling of being ... in a secret place. Historic district in Paris, is now one of Paris' main localities for art galleries, fashionable district, home to many trendy restaurants, fashion houses, and hip galleries. Also called Gay district. Take a few hours to walk around

The oldest planned square in Paris and one of the finest in the city. It is located in the Marais district. Of an architectural unity and a perfect prescription, this pure marvel built under Henri IV is surrounded with 36 detached houses in two floors. Blue roofs, white stones and red bricks step over arches sheltering art galleries, terraces and, over the weekend, over musicians or over classic singers. In n°6, you can visit the house where Victor Hugo lived between 1832 and 1848

If the weather is nice try it ! Very nice place to relax in ! The attractive Jardin du Palais Royal spreads over five hectares. A series of flowerbeds, shady alleys and lawns were landscaped around a central fountain. The elegant buildings and covered arcades, built by the Duke Louis-Philippe d’Orléans, still frame the gardens. They accommodate a multitude of small and exclusive shops, mostly antiques.
