When we returned in the evening, it was bustling with people shopping and eating and sitting outside on the patios enjoying drinks and desserts. Several stores selling jewelry, women's clothing, fragrance, electronics and clothes and other gifts were open as well as a ton of restaurants and cafes of all kinds. It's an easy metro ride so I highly recommend it. We already had dinner plans so we only spent about an hour walking around and browsing but we might come back for dinner and explore more next time we are in town.

I have a small bladder and that requires a certain budget in France) -lacking a food court -you always get harassed by people representing charities up front asking you to donate money to their cause
