This soundscape captures the vibrant sounds of Le marché aux Puces de Paris, in Saint-Ouen. This is the world's largest hub of antique and second-hand dealers, attracting over 5 million visitors annually and ranking as France's 5th most visited tourist site. Beyond the charming narrow streets of antiques lies a raw, multicultural flea market where traders sell clothes, shoes, and everyday goods, filling the air with a rich tapestry of dialects and lively market chatter.
