St. Germain des près – Paris 6 Once a favorite spot of Ernest Hemingway, this is a very colorful part of the Left Bank. It used to be the hangout for intellectuals and artists, nowadays this Parisian neighborhood has become newly chic. Upscale small stores, international restaurants and art galleries can be found almost everywhere in Paris. For a quieter atmosphere in Paris, wander through the Luxembourg Gardens, or for more shopping, check out Rue de Rennes, where there is much to see. The Rues de Buci, de Seine, Dauphine and Mazarine, and the area between Boulevard St-Germain and the Seine provide perfect examples of Parisian charm: you can find shops and cafes, and busy pubs at night.
