Rue Des Rosiers - Paris (sitios de interés)

Descripción del sitio

5. Rue des Rosiers
Rue des Rosiers has been the main artery of Paris’s Jewish quarter since the Middle Ages. The sense of tradition is palpable: Shops housed in 17th century buildings promote themselves in Yiddish and Hebrew, and excellent kosher foods and specialty items tempt you from behind their windows. Though the area’s cultural heritage is threatened by the encroachment of trendy commercial ventures, there is every reason to believe it will remain a vital ethnic enclave. The area’s longtime Ashkenazi residents, refugees from 19th century pogroms in Eastern Europe, now share the street with Sephardic Jews, more recent immigrants from North Africa. This population shift is an encouraging reminder of how places like Rue des Rosiers help new arrivals adjust to the city, and vice versa.
