While shopping is abound all over Paris there are several key areas which are rich with boutiques and name brand stores. St. Germain is known to Parisians and tourists alike for its plethora of boutiques. Start at the Saint Sulpice church and work your way around down rue du Four, over in the rue du Dragon area where the streets are oh to tiny, and rue de Grenelle with its many shoes stores. Then head up rue Bonaparte to the Blvd St. Germain as it crosses Blvd Raspail where you'll find Armani and cafe Flore across the street. Stop at the cafe de la Marie for a tea or a drink post retail therapy and enjoy the St. Sulpice fountains.
