Paris department stores & Best places to shop
France's major department stores are Galeries Lafayette and Le Printemps, which both have flagship stores on Boulevard Haussmann in Paris and branches around the country. Part of the same group as Galeries Lafayette, the BHV (Bazar de l'Hotel de Ville) has a more mid-market clientele. The oldest department store in France (and maybe in the world) is still Le Bon Marche in Paris - located on the left bank (for details please see below). La Samaritaine was bought by LVMH and closed in 2005 (source Wikipedia).
