Ep 06 - FB Live Replay: Video Tour of Paris - The Covered Passages (19th century shopping arcades)

A replay of Episode 06 of my FB Live video tour series. This time I avoid the wet Paris winter with a tour of a few Covered Passages - the 19th century shopping arcades. One of my favorite parts in the whole city!

Good morning from Vancouver, BC, Canada. Thank you for filming this life series! I started watching from episode one every day with my morning coffee and I will continue this routine for now. Yes, I do have a plan to come for a visit in Paris, in fact, a longer stay if at all possible. I have subscribed the Instagram and FB. Merci Beaucoup!!

Great tour! Thanks for doing these. Good call on the covered passages on a rainy day. And those chocolate shops! Valentin is on my list now, and the Thai place, too!

Most interesting, but please note that that there is a bit more to say about George Sand then simply “Chopin’s mistress”.

Tom Babbitt Hi Tom, thanks for the comment. You’re absolutely right; in fact there’s a lot more to say about everything I show in these videos. And on my actual walking tours I go into things more in depth. These videos are more to give a sample of what’s around and to give an introduction into stories & details that many haven’t heard of before. No disrespect meant to Ms. Sand that’s for sure, she was quite a character :-) I may do more specialized videos in the future that delve deeper into various topics, so keep an eye out for that. Thanks a lot for watching!

I love all the three passages-Panorama, jeoffoi, and Verdeou. Pardon my spelling... Are they all in the 2 arr. or 9 arr? It looks like you just keep crossing the street and walking through passages . So they are all close by ? I just subscribed. Looking forward to another place in Paris. Thank you for your good job!♥️

[@afrenchfryeinparis]

Thanks for watching! Many of the passages of Paris are in the 2nd and 9th arrondissements which is where this video takes place. Thanks for watching!
