Holiday cheer seeps into each of the 20 arrondissements, decorated with larger-than-life garlands, forests of bauble-strewn fir trees, sculptural light displays, and wooden chalets doling out vin chaud (mulled wine) and holiday specialties like foie gras—best spread on subtly sweet pain d’épices (gingerbread). And when you’re ready to indulge in Paris’s renowned retail therapy, swing by one of the grand magasins (department stores), which rank among the best in the world for their holiday window displays—New York City included—executed with the same style and precision as a couturier. If you’re planning to spend Christmas in Paris, you’ll find plenty of ways to celebrate, but these 10 are some of the best things to do and see during the holidays in the City of Light.
