The arcades are as much an attraction as the towers

Like the towers and the Vieux Port, these stone arches are one of the symbols of the maritime city. The people of La Rochelle may not pay them much attention any more, but they're delighted to take shelter in them when it rains, or to enjoy a little shade on a hot summer's day. That's what makes arcades so special: in the Middle Ages, they were used to protect stalls from the elements. Many downtown streets are equipped with them: Saint-Jean-du-Pérot is a popular spot for gourmets, while l'Escale appeals more to the curious.

Ces magnifiques arcades situé au cœur de la Rochelle sont le témoignage de l'histoire de la cité. A l'ombre d'entre elles se trouvent de très belles boutiques où il fait bon se balader en toutes saisons.

Le centre ville historique de La Rochelle se distingue par ses arcades qui permettent de se promener ou de flâner dans les magasins à l'abri du soleil ou de la pluie. On accède facilement aux magasins mais parfois le trottoir est un peu petit et ce n'est pas facile de circuler notamment en haute saison.
