Fodor's Expert Review Les Halles

This 19th-century glass-and-metal-covered market was designed by Dijon-born Gustave Eiffel. It buzzes with locals every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. On Saturday, it spills out onto the neighboring streets. Food is the highlight, including local Charolais beef, Bresse chicken, jambon persillé, and lots of regional cheeses. The outside stalls are piled high with clothes, hats, and handbags.
