A pagoda in Paris? It all started in 1895 when the owner of the Bon Marché department store purchased a pagoda in Japan and had it shipped to Paris, stone-by-stone, as a wedding gift to his wife. The marriage didn’t last, however, and in 1931 the beautifully carved pagoda and its Japanese garden were transformed into a movie theater, conserving as much of the original décor as possible. Try to see a film in the Salle Japonaise instead of the modern Salle 2.
