Visit the majestic 18th-century neo-classical building, as well as its crypt which has housed, since the French Revolution, a necropolis of great French figures: Voltaire, Victor Hugo, Marie Curie, Jean Moulin, Jean Jaurès, Alexandre Dumas…
Stroll through the charming streets of the Latin Quarter, such as Rue Moufetard with its daytime market stalls and numerous bars in the evening, or Rue Monge, where the remains of the Lutetia arenas can be found.
To finish your day, head to the quays of Tournelle and Montbello along the Seine to enjoy a magnificent panorama of Notre Dame de Paris, the Île de la Cité, and the Île Saint-Louis.
To spice up your evenings, head to Paradis Latin, one of the oldest cabarets in France and a hotspot of Parisian nightlife.
