Les Halles

Les Halles is a central area in Paris, historically known as a bustling market for fresh food and goods. It was once the city's primary wholesale food market, located in a large complex known as "Les Halles de Paris." Although the original market was replaced in the 1970s by a modern underground shopping center called Forum des Halles, the area remains vibrant, featuring shops, restaurants, and art. Les Halles is also a significant transportation hub, connecting various metro lines, making it an important part of Parisian life for both locals and visitors.
