This still little-known Central Asian country, a jewel of Muslim civilization with Mongolian, Russian and Iranian influences, can be discovered in the Marais.
In 2020, this craft store opened, under the leadership of Lola Till, an Uzbek psychologist and writer.
The basement is devoted to fashion, with jackets, silk and wool bags. Upstairs, 100% silk dominates, with kits at 45 euros, cushions from 180 to 130 euros, stoles at 80 euros.
A symphony of colors that inspire artisans from Samarkand to Tashkent. Let us not forget that this country with Iranian influences has inspired writers, like Amin Maalouf with Samarkand (The Pocket Book): the story of a lost manuscript which takes us on the Silk Road, at the time of the Mongolian rides. .
At the house of Uzbekistan, Shiraz welcomes you and gives you good advice from 10 a.m. to 19:30 p.m., every day except Sunday.

NOW ON THE MOOD MARSH
Divine brunch at the foot of Notre-Dame
Of course, officially, it is not the Marais. But at Son de la Terre, a barge recently moored at the Montebello quay (5th), the 4th arrondissement is in sight. Moreover, this one is incredible: on one side, it is Notre-Dame flooded with sunlight; on the other, the quays, the book sellers, the walkers, the joggers.
Saka, a cocktail bar like in Tokyo
Here is an address which gives the measure of the transformation of the Marais. And it's enough to silence the grumpy people whose mantra is: “It was better before…” No, everything was not better “before” in the Marais. Besides, there was no American bar like Saka, which cultivates a form of excellence that can only be found in Japan.
