This is one of those exhibits that makes me so happy to be in Paris - 150 of Robert Doisneau’s photos of Les Halles Central Market from 1933 until its dismantling in 1971. And, even better, entry is free. The exhibits here are often excellent, almost always free, and unless you drop by on Sunday afternoon, lines are rare. Below is a link to a slide show of Doisneau’s incredible portraits and then a link to a French-language video about this exhibit with an interview from an American gentlemen remembering his summer in Paris in 1960.

Note : Paris is
not the most accessible city in Europe for
people with physical limitations.
Some busses have wheelchair ramps.The metro system has a ridiculous number of
stairs
and very few stations are equipped with elevators. Below is a link to a web site with
information on reduced mobility access in the Paris transportation system.
