While staying at a Paris Vacation Apartment Rental you'll want to take a visit to the Sorbonne and the Latin Quarter (the Quartier Latin). The quarter is mostly known for its history of intellectuals and bohemians, many of whom came from the Sorbonne which dominates the district.
The reason the Latin quarter got its name was because Latin endured here well after the fall of the Roman empire. At the Sorbonne, lectures were conducted in Latin until the 16th century. The Sorbonne itself was founded in 1257. The scientists Marie Curie and Louis Pasteur conducted their research at the Sorbonne.
A Paris Vacation Apartment Rental in The Latin Quarter
Finding a Paris vacation apartment rental in the Latin quarter would certainly be a coup. The Latin Quarter is centrally located in one of the most vibrant neighborhoods in Paris. Due to Paris' relatively small size, the Latin Quarter is close to everything, even if it is further South than the centrally located Notre Dame.
Like most Bohemian neighborhoods, it has become more highly priced with time, but it still retains its youthful energy due to the influx of students from the Sorbonne. If you don't get your first choice of Ile St Louis, the Latin Quarter would hardly be a step down for your Paris vacation.
