Forget the promenade – this is the shopping destination  in Cannes. Hundreds of shops from every luxury brand conceivable cater to the rich and famous here; I swear that the main reason tourists even frequent this place. The window-shopping alone ought to have its own price tag here (I don’t really mean that – just feel that way). It’s usually insanely crowded, but that’s part of the charm – it’s all about the people after all.

• Post Christmas sales are to die for.
• The prices will hit your wallets hard… very hard.

• Too many to count
