Admire the European-like architecture

The moment the beautiful Galeries Lafayette comes into view, visitors will feel like they've travelled to Europe with stunning architecture, fountains, and cobblestone roads. Walk through the wide open streets and maybe even grab a cup of coffee at one of the street-side cafes.

If you take a closer look at the long black panels found on the ground, you'll discover that these are outdoor air conditioners that blow out cool air so guests can enjoy exploring without the heat.

Ground floor

On the ground floor of Galeries Lafayette, you will find cosmetics, fine jewellery, watches, handbags, and homeware. This is also where you will find the popular Russian and French fusion cafe, Café Pouchkine.

First floor

One floor up and beautiful children's clothes will greet you. This is where shoppers can browse through children's clothing and some men's and women's wear.
