The Latin Quarter (Paris)







The Latin Quarter is Paris' traditional center of great thinking. Some of the world's most important artists, philosophers, and writers have passed through the area throughout history, frequenting the centuries-old Sorbonne University or the many now-legendary cafes around the area. The Latin quarter retains the nostalgic charm of past ages, while still being an important hub of education and ideas to this day. It's also a lush, picturesque area of Paris, with lots of quiet squares and gardens, winding backstreets, and vibrant open-air markets.

  2. I'm so jealous. Seeing your holiday pics really gets me jealous. France is a beautiful city. Got any pics from your last visit to the Louvre? Are you still allowed to take pics inside?
