What awaits you
An area of outstanding history and significance I would like to call the Latin Quarter the most magnificent area of the French capital. And here's why: Saint-Genevieve, Pantheon, Sorbonne, Luxembourg Gardens, Saint-Michel fountain, Notre Dame Cathedral, Palais de Justice, Sainte-Chapelle, Saint Louis, Place Dauphins and much more … These are all some of the key attractions of Paris, and they are all in this quarter or in the neighborhood, and during a walk I will tell you about the history of the area, as well as the most important and interesting events that took place here at different times
Pride of France - Sorbonne You will see the French temple of knowledge, which is the heart of the Latin Quarter, which, by the way, began to be called that, because in the medieval period all schools in this quarter were taught exclusively in Latin. On the Boulevard Saint-Michel, see the surviving traces of the Romans under the guise of the Cluny Baths. You will walk through the narrow old streets and shady parks, where Ernest Hemingway, who lived in the Latin Quarter in the 1920s, used to walk after long hours of work on his works. It was here that he wrote "Paris is a holiday that is always with you."
The special atmosphere of the Latin Quarter Walking around the block, you will unexpectedly discover a philosopher or a writer in yourself. The grandeur of architecture combined with the divine accords of the classical music of the Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the lively boulevards, the mysterious gnomon of the Saint-Sulpice Church and the thirsty students create a unique atmosphere. I am sure that such a walk will enrich you spiritually, give you inspiration and many unforgettable impressions. I would be glad to present you with such an opportunity.
