\"venez<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

venez avec moi dans le 6\u00e8me
\n<\/strong>vous \u00eates ici
\n<\/strong><\/em>(you are here)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

an overview and the tourist points<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

The sixth arrondissement is located in central Paris on the rive gauche<\/em><\/span> (the left bank). The area is popular with tourists because it is not only full of boutique hotels and quaint bistros but centrally located to many things that tourists come to Paris to see.  <\/span><\/p>\n

The 6\u00e8me is in a rectangular shape with the northern and southern borders being the shorter sides of the rectangle. The northern border is what l call the \u201cquai\u201d street because the street\u2019s name changes at various points along the Seine corresponding to the quai.  In the 6\u00e8me the \u201cquai\u201d street (going west to east) begins as quai <\/em>Malaquais<\/em><\/span> (in front of \u00c9<\/span><\/em>cole des Beaux Arts<\/em><\/span>) then turns to quai Conti <\/em><\/span>and finally quai des Grand Augustins <\/em><\/span>(where you will find le<\/span><\/em> pont Neuf<\/em><\/span> (the bridge which crosses western tip of \u00cele de la Cit\u00e9 <\/em><\/span>and lands you in the 1er<\/em><\/span> where you will find the Louvre right in front of you).<\/span><\/p>\n

West of the 6\u00e8me is the 7\u00e8me<\/span><\/em>, home to the Eiffel Tower, Invalides,<\/span><\/em> and Mus\u00e9e D\u2019Orsay.<\/span><\/em> The southern border of the 6\u00e8me is boulevard Montparnasse<\/span><\/em> which is the beginning of the Montparnasse neighborhood in the 14\u00e8me<\/span><\/em> (home to Montparnasse\u2019s famous cemetery and catacombs). The 15\u00e8me<\/span><\/em> is also south of the 6\u00e8me. The 5\u00e8me<\/span><\/em> (Latin Quarter) is to the east of the 6\u00e8me.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 6\u00e8me is known as the place for artists: famous artists, singers, writers and poets made this area their home or at least their meeting place. The tourist sites in the 6\u00e8me include the Ecole des Beaux Arts<\/span>,<\/em> the<\/span> Saint Germain-des-Pr\u00e8s<\/em><\/span> neighborhood, Jardin du Luxembourg<\/em><\/span> and the Palais du Luxembourg<\/em><\/span> (where Queen Marie Medici lived briefly) and many historic churches (i.e., Saint Sulpice, Val de Grace, Saint Severin, Saint Etienne du Mont<\/em><\/span>, and Saint Germain-des-Pr\u00e8s)<\/span>.  <\/em>The 6\u00e8me is compromised of two sections: the north section where the Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e8s<\/em><\/span> neighborhood can be found; and the south section where you will find the Jardin du Luxembourg<\/span><\/em> and Montparnasse<\/span><\/em>. Now, onto food…<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Tout<\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n

where to eat, wet your whistle, satisfy your sweet-tooth,
\n<\/em><\/strong><\/span>buy food to take-away, and find things for your kitchen and table<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Rather than categorize the 6\u00e8me by restaurants, p\u00e2tisseries<\/em><\/span> (pastry shops), boulangeries<\/span><\/em> (bakeries), et cetera, I have broken down the 6\u00e8me into three areas with a high concentrations of food-type interests that I find to be noteworthy and also correspond to tourist sites (visit a tourist site and eat well at the same time…very efficient). Of course my list is not exhaustive, you can find charming bistros, tasty brasseries and delicious shops on streets throughout the 6\u00e8me, but here are my recommendations nonetheless:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. North 6\u00e8me<\/span>: the Saint Germain-des-Pr\u00e8s neighborhood <\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. Central 6\u00e8me<\/span>: Saint Sulpice, Luxembourg gardens and the surrounding area; and <\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. South 6\u00e8me<\/span>: south of Luxembourg gardens and to Montparnasse boulevard.  <\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     <\/p>\n

    \"North<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    North 6\u00e8me:
    \n<\/em><\/strong><\/span>the Saint Germain-des-Pres neighborhood
    \n<\/em><\/strong><\/span>and the area north of boulevard Saint Germain<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e8s<\/em><\/span> is a neighborhood as well as a major boulevard (which can make it a little confusing). Boulevard Saint Germain-des-Pr\u00e8s<\/em><\/span> runs from the P<\/span><\/em>o<\/span>nt de la Concorde<\/em><\/span> in the 7\u00e8me and travels southerly and easterly following the Seine until it returns back toward the Seine at pont de Sully<\/em><\/span> in the 5\u00e9me. It is the shape of a smile.  Boulevard Saint Germain-des-Pr\u00e8<\/span>s<\/span><\/em> is known for its expensive shops and restaurants and it is well-traversed by tourists. This area is walking distance to the Musee d\u2019Orsay, les Invalides<\/em><\/span>, and the Louvre<\/span><\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

    The heart of the Saint Germain-des-Pres neighborhood is where boulevard <\/span>Saint Germain-des-Pr\u00e8<\/span>s<\/span><\/em> meets rue Bonaparte <\/em><\/span>and rue de Rennes<\/span>.<\/em> Here there is a collection of well-known restaurants surrounding the place de la Saint Germain<\/em><\/span> and the church Saint Germain<\/span>.<\/em> Les Deux Magots <\/em><\/span>faces the church, a couple of doors north is Le Soci\u00e9t\u00e9. <\/em><\/span>On the west side of Les Deux Magots<\/em><\/span> is Caf\u00e9 de Flore<\/span> and a<\/em>cross the boulevard (on the south side) is Caff\u00e9 Armani, Emporio Armani<\/span>, <\/em>and Brasserie Lipp<\/em>. <\/span>Rue de Renne<\/span><\/em> and rue Bonaparte <\/em><\/span>will lead you to many shops and speciality stores.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Included in this area are not only the restaurants on boulevard Saint Germain<\/span><\/em> but those north of the boulevard up to the Seine where you will find a collection of nice restaurants and hotels.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Central 6\u00e9me<\/em>:
    \n<\/em>Saint Sulpice and Jardins du Luxembourg<\/em><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

     This area I consider geographically the heart of the 6\u00e8me and includes the area south <\/span>o<\/span>f<\/span><\/span> Boulevard Saint Germain<\/span><\/em> to Luxembourg gardens. It is filled with boutique hotels, bistros, small boutiques for clothing, antiques, the garden, and your home. Rue de Rennes<\/em><\/span> has a high collection of chocolatiers, p\u00e2tisseries <\/em><\/span>and kitchen\/home shops. The little area around Saint Sulpice <\/em><\/span>also has many small bistros and boutiques on every corner.  On rue Saint Sulpice<\/em><\/span> itself there is a string of boutiques selling home items. Rue Mabillon<\/span><\/em> has many bistros, the street is very crowded with tourists in the summer. At Christmas time the area surrounding place de Saint Sulpice is set up with vendors selling holiday items as well as vin chaud<\/span>.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

    Both march\u00e9s are centrally located and the closed marche,  St-Germain, has a number of restaurants as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

    You can get lost in Luxembourg gardens and you should. It is beautiful with its rose gardens, fountains and carefully planted grounds. It is wonderful for chlidren and provides hours of entertainment with a carousel, a “zip line” type ride and monkey bars for the kids, the fountain to race remote-controlled boats, and pedal cars and horses. People run in the park, play tennis and lunch throughout the day (there is a caf\u00e9 here as well as snack shops or you can bring in your own food. On the north end is the palace (Palais du Luxembourg<\/em><\/span>) and the street which circles over the top of the gardens (rue de Vaugirard<\/em><\/span>) has many small boutiques, ice cream shops, \u00e9pcerie shops and even a post office should you need it (there is another on rue de Rennes <\/em><\/span>and rue du Four<\/em><\/span>). <\/span><\/p>\n

    In terms of fresh food markets, the 6\u00e8me has it all. There are two markets in the 6\u00e8me, the open market, March\u00e9 Raspail<\/span>,<\/em> is one of three dedicated organic markets in Paris and the other market, March\u00e9 St-Germain<\/span>,<\/em> is a covered market open every day.<\/span><\/p>\n

     This area has more businesses than the northern section.  With the Pasteur Institute and two Universities here there are far less tourists (and more reasonably-priced restaurants).  Boulevard du Montparnasse<\/em><\/span> has restaurants and clothing boutiques on it and it is the beginning of the Montparnasse neighborhood. South is the 14\u00e8me and the 15\u00e8me which were predominately residential but have really undergone a revival in the last ten years.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Boulevard Raspai<\/span>l<\/em>, which runs northwest\/southeast, is a very large street with grocery stores, shops and restaurants. Rue du Cherche-Midi<\/em><\/span> and rue de Rennes<\/em><\/span> run parallel to one another and are two main north\/south streets running south from boulevard Saint-Germain<\/em><\/span> all the way to Boulevard du Montparnasse<\/em><\/span>. Both streets have many gastronomical offerings (I have listed some places in here).  Do not try to walk the entire street, only sections at a time, as it is quite a distance. <\/span><\/p>\n

    On the streets rue Brea, rue Vavin<\/em><\/span>, and <\/em>rue Sainte-Beuve<\/em><\/span> and the surrounding streets (north of boulevard Montparnasse <\/em><\/span>and by boulevard Raspail<\/em><\/span>), there are a number of small boutiques and good bistros as well as Michelin-starred restaurants.<\/span><\/p>\n
