marche tentation

The Ritz is in fact two edifices. The one that faces the Place Vendôme was originally the residence of the Duc de Lauzun, who had commanded the French troops at Yorktown during the Revolutionary War. The other half is a building that backs up against it on the Rue Cambon. The two buildings are linked by a long corridor lined with display cases that contain some of the most luxurious and unusual items that Paris has to offer. It is aptly called “Temptation Walk.” In the words of Madame Ritz, the wife of the original owner, César Ritz, it was designed “to tempt one at every step to buy, buy, buy—jade, coral, jeweled slippers, furs, antique jewelry—irresistibles.”
