Walking a festive Paris, France to visit the stunning Galeries Lafayette Paris Haussmann, which is an upmarket French department store chain, the biggest in Europe. Its flagship store is on Boulevard Haussmann in the 9th arrondissement of Paris. The architecture of the store is art nouveau, with a remarkable dome and a rooftop panoramic view of Paris. The theme for Christmas 2023 is by Charles de Vilmorin telling the tale of the little girl, her magic paintbrush and all the wonderful characters they meet in their adventures, with the centrepiece being a reinvention of the traditional Christmas tree with creatures twirling around the giant tree filled with lights and sparkle beneath the iconic dome.

  1. Afternoon WW how are you mate? Wonderful city walk there in beautiful Paris which I would love to visit someday in the future! You're videos never disappoint me here & keep up the great work always here! 😀🎅✨🎁🎄

  2. It is really great to see Paris during Christmas time seeing the lights and
    the department store was really nice and very crowded, i really enjoy seeing
    the various areas of the department store but i also liked the entire walk here
    as always Thanks for another wonderful tour especially here in Paris France
    Thank You very much Watched Walker.🇫🇷France🇫🇷

  3. Fantastic video from the huge Department Store, I love the Christmas Tree, and to see it from different angles and levels and floors. And all the lights around the Christmas Tree. Fantastic view from the roof. Thank you.

  4. Hello WW! Stunning place, wow! So beautifully decorated for the season. The glass walk is incredible, such a great view from it. Thanks for sharing it on such a busy day.😊

  5. Hello Master WW. I was floored seeing this most beautiful store. Absolutely breath taking. The centerpiece christmas design is outstanding. along with your filming. Paris is showing off. Thank you sir.🥰🥰🥰

  6. Beautiful imagery indeed. Wonderful Paris store. Surprisingly ( in 30 mins…) how many people were actually there to shop…
    A display worthy of much more from the public, me thinks…

    Ironically, the store can afford to put on a show like this and has to as well…
    The lack of people carrying G.Lafayette colorful shopping bags indicates a certain spending power in 30 minutes.
    Multiply that times 8 hours.
    Times 7 days a week…4 months a year…52 weeks in a year…365…

    I worked in fashion for 18 – 22 years. I used to count the bags as an indicator of the kind of revenue that was being generated by those would be customers.
    Rather like window shopping nowadays!
    Grossly overpriced stock
    Glad I got out of it.
    Stunning displays nevertheless to tempt those who feel the need to feed their…( what rhymes with need and feed in 5 letters..?)

  7. J'adore Galeries Lafayette! So many forget it's just a quick jump over, or under, the water. I am curious though could you explain the gentleman cooking something on top of the trolley over a bin (?). He looked so sad, but I was more taken aback by the fire in a trolley. 😳

  8. Very impressive! Magnificent! It reminds me of the old "City of Paris" department store in San Francisco, built in the 1890s, aand very similar though smaller in size.
