STOP TO SHOP: GARE SAINT LAZARE

Clean as a whistle
If you haven't been to Paris lately and stopped at the Gare Saint Lazare, get ready for a surprise. The train station's facelift transforming and opening its main halls on three levels into a sparkling shopping mall with 80 boutiques has been completed, after ten years of work. The Gare Saint Lazare is one of Europe's most frequented stations.
