Paris's 6th arrondissement is both a historic site, part of the Latin Quarter, and a lively spot, thanks to its many cafés and restaurants, where you'll find both fine institutions and great deals for students. From the quays of the Seine to the Jardin du Luxembourg , via boulevard Saint-Michel, the Théâtre de l'Odéon and boulevard Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the 6th arrondissement is an encounter with history around every corner. You'll pass historic monuments, little mysteries of the capital, trendy bars and anachronistic boutiques that recall the charm of the Paris of yesteryear.
The 6th arrondissement is one of those neighborhoods where tourists, locals and students mingle, offering a panorama of eclectic outings to suit every taste. From restaurants with listed decor to atmospheric bars, not to mention the many specialized bookshops, hidden museums and independent cinemas, this district of the capital is brimming with surprising treasures. While it's hard to know Paris like the back of your hand, the 6th arrondissement alone will always have something to surprise you!
