🇫🇷 The Best Bookstore in Paris (Sorry, Shakespeare!) 📚✨
Forget the tourist crowds at Shakespeare & Company - the real gem is this artsy haven by Sacré-Cœur in Montmartre! 📍 Halle Saint-Pierre 🏛️💚 While Shakespeare's became just a photo op, this place is the real deal! Specializing in art books and gorgeous catalogues, plus: ☕ Cozy café area 🛋️ Comfy seating 🧳 Bag storage 🚻 Clean bathrooms (huge plus in Paris!) 👍🏻 The second floor hosts rotating avant-garde exhibitions 🎨 During my visit: GILBERT PEYRE's wild "junk-tech" sculptures 👨🏻🦳⚡ Imagine: 🤖 Moving, singing, weight-lifting installations ♻️ Made from recycled trash + mechanical parts 🦾 Total cyberpunk eco-art vibe! (Just wish I understood the French descriptions...😅) The space itself is STUNNING 👏🏻 ✨ Green steel beams + floor-to-ceiling windows ✨ Feels like reading inside the Eiffel Tower ✨ Sunlight transforms it into pure magic ✨ With its: 🎨 Cutting-edge art shows 📖 Curated book selection ☕ Café culture 🚽 Actual amenities ...this might just be the perfect bookstore! 🤯💘 #ParisGuide #Paris #ParisTravel #FranceDIY #ParisBookstores #ParisMuseums #HiddenParis #FranceTravel
