With its many cafes, restaurants, clubs, fashion boutiques and
“maisons et objects” stores, the Marais is the center
of Paris’s vibrant gay community. Shops are open on Sunday
when most other parts of Paris are closed. On rue St. Crois de
la Bretonnerie is the gay bookstore ‘Les Mots a la Bouche,
and a nice salon for tea is ‘Mariage Freres’, 30-32
rue du Bourg-Tibourg, which sells 450 varieties of tea.
A noticeable landmark is the Gothic Hotel Herouet and its turret
built in 1528 at the corner of rue des Frances-Bourgeois and rue
Vieille-du-Temple.
This has been the center of the Jewish community since the middle
ages and there are many Jewish bakeries, cafes and restaurants.
