    Not far from the famous Medical schools, one of the best in France, and nearby cinemas, where you may find original French films to improve your French ;-))

    In the heart of 'Quartier Latin'. Used to be the place where the earliest Sorbonne students, some 800 years, came in for a good French wine and sharing music with friends !

    Located in OldTown, a small square with street artists and a fountain. Great for people watching.

    About 300 meters from Notre Dame cathedral and fabulous old 12th century churches : Saint-Severin and Saint-Julien-le-pauvre (many concerts to be found, especially on week-ends)

    Meeting place, especially for college students. It's located in the Latin Quarter, which is equivalent to Los Angeles' Westwood village.
