Best Saint Germain Des Pres Vacation Packages

This lively neighborhood on the left bank of the River Seine is named for a 6th century Benedictine abbey once located there (The church, Paris's oldest, still remains). Frequented by 19th century painters like Manet and post-WWII artists and intellectuals like Picasso and Sartre, this Parisian haunt retains its vibrant, fashionable character. Museums, galleries and art dealers are a common sight here. Also, you are always within a quick walk of a classic Parisian cafe.
