The magic of Christmas in Paris
Posted in Discover Paris le
During the festive season, Paris deserves its nickname of City of Light more than ever. Adorned with its illuminations, it hosts a host of enchanting events. Christmas shopping, concerts, shows, markets, it's up to you to put together a dream program during your stay at Hôtel La Motte Piquet.
Christmas must-sees
Christmas lights are a must for Parisians and visitors alike. Stroll along the major avenues - the Champs-Elysées, of course, but also the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré and many others - and squares to admire the enchanting glitter of the illuminations. Your stroll will surely take you past the lively window displays of the Grands Magasins. Not far from the Hôtel de La Motte Picquet, Le Bon Marché features an adorable show of teddy bears working in a traditional bakery, a vegetable garden or a sock store. Smiles guaranteed!
A Christmas outing
Before it's time for theaters and cabarets, treat yourself to a stroll through the Jardin des Plantes' illuminated jungle. Lit from within, the structures representing the biodiversity of tropical forests come to life, punctuating the night with their astonishing shapes. The holiday season is also the ideal time to discover the rich program of shows in Paris. Musicals like The Lion King and Mamma Mia! are always a hit, as are cabaret revues. Le Paradis Latin, with its show choreographed by Kamel Ouali, for example, is just a 20-minute metro ride from Hôtel La Motte Picquet.
