New to the Parisian flea market scene and looking for something a little less overwhelming than the monstrous Puces de St Ouen to begin my experience, I decided to start at the Marché aux Puces de la Porte de Vanves one Sunday morning to browse through 350 stalls of furniture, trinkets, paintings, jewelry, and other unique goodies in the south of Paris. I next made my way over to the Marché du Livre Ancien et d'Occasion (Old and Secondhand Book Market) in search of rare and old books.
