French Food Markets

French markets are a cultural experience as much as a shopping one. Top picks: Marché d'Aligre in Paris (Paris's most authentic market), Les Halles Paul Bocuse in Lyon (the cathedral of French gastronomy), Marché de la Libération in Nice (the best Niçoise produce), Marché des Capucins in Bordeaux, and Marché Saint-Quentin in Paris (a stunning 19th-century iron-and-glass market hall).
