Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

Visit the iconic Parisian department store, Galeries Lafayette, founded in 1894. Explore this epicenter of fashion and one of the most famous chains in Europe, with a wide range of brands for any budget on 70,000 m2. Get inside the store to admire a 43-meter glass dome and wonderful decorations. Recall a scene from the show where Lila and her sister shop inside and Marcus does the same in another department.

Stroll down the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honore, the famous street that houses a plethora of designer stores, fashion brands, and luxury shops. Take a chance to see Elysee Palace, the residence of the French president that dates back to 1722, and pass by other state facilities, art galleries, and antique stores. In the show, it is the street where Marcus’ apartment is located.

Stop 3

Get to the 2nd arrondissement to walk along Rue Colbert. The street was shown to be located in the 11th arrondissement, though. The show features the street with feminist writings on the walls, which is a real movement now in the city. You can meet some messages left by the active group Collages Feminicides Paris in some places across the Paname.

The suburbs of Paris also play an important role in the series, including Asnieres-sur-Seine. The suburb seems to be the home of Marcus’ family. Discover this location and find out more about the town. It was first mentioned in 1158 in papal bull, and was called asinaria, meaning "donkey farm." It lies 8 km from the center of Paris on the left bank of the Seine

Stop 5

Reach the largest and liveliest winter fair in the capital of France to feel the Christmas vibe to the fullest. The easiest filming location to visit is located in the heart of the city in the Jardin des Tuileries, stretching from Place des Pyramides to Place de la Concorde. The market functions for 6 or 7 weeks from late November to early January, so don’t lose a chance to feel the Christmas magic in real life and taste some local goodies and delicacies. You can recognize a skating rink and festive stalls from the first few minutes of the third episode. Marcus' recording studio is also here nearby, according to the plot.
