Choose a holiday apartment in Paris Latin QuarterThe lively Latin Quarter of Paris is known for its upbeat atmosphere, student life and charming Bistros. The name comes from language that is widely spoken in this area due to the Quarter being home to many higher education establishments that were mainly taught in Latin during the Middle Ages, the students spoke only Latin to their professors up until the French Revolution.The area is famed for its preservation of that authentic Parisian rustic atmosphere and hosts a mass of true French experiences. The area is located in the extensive 5th and 6th arrondissements of Paris, the area is full of welcoming bars, shops and small theatres all set in beautiful cobblestone streets – enter down one of the interesting little alleyways and don’t be surprised to discover many delightful patisseries, a variation of foreign restaurants or restaurants offering three course meals for only 10-15 Euros! Staying in the Latin Quarter means that you are conveniently located to discover most of the interesting attractions that Paris has to offer. Notre Dame Cathedral is very close to the area; the Cathedral is one of the best displays of French Gothic architecture and is one of the major and most famous churches in the world. To get to the area you can walk over the magnificent River Seine from the Marais district, which has lots of attractive cafés and bars which sit shoulder to shoulder along its waterfront. Any bookworms staying in the Latin Quarter of Paris should be sure to visit Shakespeare & Company, the famous old-school book shop. The shop is worth visiting even if you don’t desire to buy a book as it has a fantastic ambiance, warm lights, comfy seats, a piano and a pile of books (where you will find many people hanging out and reading). |
