Make a day of northeast Paris
Choose an arts hall, a hillside park or a Cambodian meal. Four starting points for getting beyond the centre.

Antiques and second-hand finds make this southern flea market a browsing-led outing.
The Puces de Vanves bring together professional antiques and second-hand dealers in the south of Paris. The range runs from furniture and lighting to old photographs, textiles, tableware and printed ephemera, making the pleasure as much about looking as finding a particular object.
Come with time to compare stalls and space in your day for an unplanned discovery. The traders’ site publishes market information and examples of recent finds; those photographs illustrate past stock rather than items guaranteed to remain available.
