Maison Pepin will channel its inner Harry Potter by turning its charming alleyway into a breathtaking rustic Christmas market.
The market itself will feature a variety of locally made products for sale and DIY workshops from gift packaging to wreath making.
Without taking away from the local artisans, the alleyway is one of the most picturesque Christmas-themed spots in the city. The narrow walls, dim lighting, light snow, and wreaths are begging to be shared all over Instagram.
The shop, located at 378 Rue St-Paul Ouest, is open every day from 10 am to 6 pm and the gorgeous Christmas alleyway will be set up at the end of November.
