Flea market at Porte de Clignancourt

Spend an afternoon strolling around this huge flea market, full of every curio imaginable. This eclectic shopping experience – officially called Les Puces de Saint-Ouen – is said to be Europe’s largest antiques markets, with more than 2,500 stalls showing off their wares every Saturday, Sunday and Monday. What began as a shanty town has been grouped into separate markets, each with its own speciality. You can browse 17th-century furniture, clothing, Asian art and much more.
