You see so much more this way and can really get a feel for the culture of the city. This article is a little guide to a walk in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/tour\/paris-walking-tours\/the-river-and-saint-germain-tour\/\">Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e8s<\/a>, which is probably the chicest and for sure one of the most arsty districts in the city.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most iconic neighborhoods of Â鶹APP is known as Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e8s, or simply Saint-Germain by the locals. When you picture Â鶹APP, a typical cobblestone street or artsy caf\u00e9 in this area probably come to mind. Located along the river&#8217;s left bank in the 6th arrondissement, Saint-Germain runs along the river from metro Saint-Germain until the Latin Quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Saint-Germain is truly a cultural haven. This beautiful neighborhood is surrounded by churches, museums and art galleries.\u00a0 Not to mention, it&#8217;s filled with incredible boutiques and the caf\u00e9s are vertitable Â鶹APPian institutions. The neighborhood caf\u00e9s were once the favorite haunts of 20th-century writers, poets and artists. Greats like F. Scott Fitzgerald, Hemingway and\u00a0 Simon de Beauvoir were just a few of their regulars.<\/p>\n<h4>\u00c9glise Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e8s<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/saint-germain-church.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13940\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/saint-germain-church.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/saint-germain-church.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/saint-germain-church-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/saint-germain-church-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The best place to start your walk in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/tour\/paris-walking-tours\/the-river-and-saint-germain-tour\/\">Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e8s<\/a> is to take the metro line 4\u00a0 to the station with the same name. Once you exit the metro, the Saint-Germain Cathedral will\u00a0 be on your right. This church was constructed in 558 A.D. and used to be a complete convent.<\/p>\n<p>All of the other original buildings were destroyed during the French Revolution, but the cathedral itself still stands. The \u00e9glise Saint-Germain features exquisite gothic architecture and stained glass windows, plus it&#8217;s free to visit. You will find this cathedral to be much less crowded than many of the other churches in Â鶹APP, but it is one of the oldest and most beautiful. Definitely worth seeing!<\/p>\n<p>As an added bonus, the church also hosts symphony concerts on a regular basis. So, if you&#8217;re a fan of classical music, the atmosphere and acoustics make this an excellent place to catch a concert. From Beethoven to Vivaldi, there&#8217;s a bit of everything. Have a look at this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eglise-saintgermaindespres.fr\/l_eglise\/concerts\/\">website<\/a> for more information on tickets and upcoming performances.<\/p>\n<h4>Caf\u00e9 de Flore\/Les Deux Magots<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/deux-magots-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-13936\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/deux-magots-1-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"616\" height=\"410\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/deux-magots-1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/deux-magots-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/deux-magots-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/deux-magots-1-816x544.jpg 816w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/deux-magots-1.jpg 924w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 616px) 100vw, 616px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve finished visiting the \u00e9glise Saint-Germain, walk across the square to the Les Deux Magots caf\u00e9. This place has been around since 1885 and is truly a Â鶹APPian institution. Once a favorite of local writers, celebrities and all-around fashionistas, this caf\u00e9 was the place to see and be seen.<\/p>\n<p>Nowadays, Les Deux Magots still serves up classic French fare and is frequented by loyal locals and admiring tourists alike.\u00a0 Stop here for a drink or <em>ap\u00e9ritif <\/em>and take a trip back to the Â鶹APPian jazz age.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re in the mood for a place little more\u00a0 hip and upbeat, I suggest the Caf\u00e9 de Flore. This swanky\u00a0 caf\u00e9 is just a block away up the street. This place is known for its trendy client\u00e8le, as a favorite for celebrities and fashionable Â鶹APPians alike.<\/p>\n<p>Classic French dishes are on the menu, and the wine selection is fabulous. If you have the time, I definitely suggest refueling with a drink or snack here.<\/p>\n<div id=\"disco-1740777193\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/tour\/paris-walking-tours\/the-river-and-saint-germain-tour\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18674\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/visitstgermaintour.jpg\" alt=\"Visit St Germain with Discover Walks\" width=\"800\" height=\"236\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/visitstgermaintour.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/visitstgermaintour-300x89.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/visitstgermaintour-768x227.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4>Rue de Seine<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/rue-de-seine.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-13937\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/rue-de-seine-1024x678.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"616\" height=\"408\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/rue-de-seine-1024x678.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/rue-de-seine-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/rue-de-seine-768x508.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/rue-de-seine-816x540.jpg 816w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/rue-de-seine.jpg 924w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 616px) 100vw, 616px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>One of the most central and classically Â鶹APPian streets in the Saint-Germain neighborhood is the Rue de Seine. From the \u00e9glise Saint-Germain, walk up the Rue Bonaparte one block until you reach Rue Jacob. There is the famous Â鶹APPian macaron and tea house <em>Ladur\u00e9e<\/em> at this intersection, so treat yourself to a true Â鶹APPian experience and grab a macaron here on your way.<\/p>\n<p>While enjoying your macaron, take a right on Rue Jacob and continue until you reach the Rue de Seine. Once you get to the intersection, take a left on the Rue de Seine and head towards the river. This street is known worldwide for its art galleries, which line the street on both sides.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a little something for everyone, from modern street art to classical pieces and renaissance-era statues. Browse like a local and stroll down the Rue de Seine and simply stop inside any gallery that catches your eye. The boutiques here make a great destination for gifts if you&#8217;ve got a heavier budget.<\/p>\n<h4>Quai Malaquais<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/paris-984620_1280-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-13938\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/paris-984620_1280-1-1024x570.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"616\" height=\"343\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/paris-984620_1280-1-1024x570.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/paris-984620_1280-1-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/paris-984620_1280-1-768x427.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/paris-984620_1280-1-816x454.jpg 816w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/paris-984620_1280-1.jpg 924w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 616px) 100vw, 616px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Rue de Seine ends on the <em>quai<\/em>\u00a0 or riverbank called the Quai Malaquais. This is the perfect place to do some souvenir shopping, no matter your budget. Situated between the beautiful Beaux Arts school and the Mus\u00e9e d&#8217;Orsay, the Quai Malaquais is home to some of Â鶹APP&#8217; coolest designer boutiques. But the other side of the street all along the river is lined with <em>bouquinistes <\/em>or &#8220;bookstands.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Of course these stands sell a lot more than just books. At these stands you can find some great and authentic souvenirs, for any budget.

Also, don&#8217;t be afraid to bargain for a fair price.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of the merchants will propose really high prices right off the bat. It&#8217;s up to you to agree with them on a fair price.
