Porte de Vanves
Porte de Vanves Review
This smaller flea market, which lies at the southern side of the city, is a hit with the fashion and design set and specializes in smaller objects—mirrors, textiles, glassware, clothing, and collectables—as well as books, posters, antique wallpapers, and postcards. With tables sprawling along both sides of the sidewalk, there's an extravagant selection, but be sure to bargain. It's open weekends only from 8 to 5, but arrive early if you want to find real deals: the good stuff goes fast, and stalls are liable to be packed up before noon.
- Address: 14e, Southern Paris, Paris
- Metro Porte de Vanves.
- Location: Montparnasse
