Gaillon, Administrative quarter in 2nd arrondissement, Paris, France.

The Gaillon quarter extends along Avenue de l'Opéra, featuring 19th-century buildings with ornate stone facades and symmetrical architecture.

The quarter developed its current form during Baron Haussmann's renovation of Paris in the 1850s, transforming medieval streets into grand boulevards.

The district contains numerous French fashion houses, luxury boutiques, and traditional restaurants that represent Parisian commercial heritage.

Metro stations Quatre-Septembre and Opéra provide direct access to the quarter, with regular service from 5:30 AM until 1:15 AM.

The quarter maintains original street patterns from the 1800s, with diagonal intersections creating triangular buildings at major crossroads.
