Paris typical passages were built during the first half of the XIXth century. Covered by a glass structure and located on the Paris right bank area, near the Grands Boulevards, they shelter shops and were created to protect customers from bad weather. Most of them disappeared during the Baron Haussmann renovation of Paris (1851-1870). / AFP PHOTO / PATRICK KOVARIKPATRICK KOVARIK/AFP/Getty Images
