Galerie Vivienne

4, rue des Petits-Champs, 5 rue de la Banque, 6 rue Vivienne

The Gallery Vivienne is one of the most charming galleries of Paris.  It connects the National Library to the Place des Victoires.  Luxuriously decorated in a neo-classic style, it is a place of exquisite walk as much by its preserved old charm which by the shops of quality you can find there.  Jean-Paul Gautier settled there in 1986, not far from a merchant of ancient prints.  A succulent tea room "A priori Tea" offers a quite practical covered terrace the days of rain.  A bar with wine makes it possible to taste the largest vintages with glass on a bar of mahogany tree, an old bookshop gathers quantity of old books on Paris.  Merchants of watches, of artificial flowers and art galleries can be found here in greatest diversity.  Built in 1823 on plans of François Jean Delannoy, the gallery reminds a Roman atmosphere, almost "pompéi", with its paved ground of flowered mosaics and its low-reliefs of goddesses decorating its high parts. An elegant canopy bathes it natural light.  The former head of the police force named Vidocq, lived with number 13, the site of the large staircase.
