(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
MontparnassePass-by Only
The Quartier Montparnasse was a high place of intellectual and artistic life in Paris between the two world wars, frequented by the greatest writers and artists of the time. The great café-restaurants on Boulevard Montparnasse, such as the Rotonde, the Dôme, the Coupole and the Select, were famous at the time. In the 1960s, the district was transformed by the restructuring of the Gare Montparnasse area and the construction of the Montparnasse Tower. The neighborhood has come back to life thanks to this real estate operation. Also in the area are the Hôtel de Montmorency, the Collège Stanislas and numerous theaters on Rue de la Gaîté. Place Edgar Quinet is always lively and leads to the Cimetière du Montparnasse. Place Denfert-Rochereau, where the main entrance to the Catacombs of Paris is located, is located about a kilometer south of the district.
Petit-MontrougePass-by Only
The Petit Montrouge district, also known as the Alésia district, is located in the 14th arrondissement of Paris. At the beginning of the 19th century, it became industrialized and attracted a working population living in precarious conditions. At the turn of the 19th and 20th century, renovation operations led to the construction of opulent buildings. Until the 1960s, the district remained popular, but since then it has experienced a rise in its standard of living and has become a district sought after for its quality of life, its shops, its green spaces and its atypical architecture.
Quartier des PeupliersPass-by Only
In the Middle Ages, the Peupliers district was a rural area with cultivated fields, vineyards and pastures bordering the Bièvre river. Water mills, tanners and dyers settled on the banks of the river. Over the centuries, the district has experienced rapid urbanization with the arrival of many craftsmen and industries. In 1860, the district was integrated into Paris and underwent an anarchic urbanization. The Bièvre river, which had become a polluted cesspool, was diverted from the Seine to be concreted and buried. At the beginning of the 20th century, new types of constructions emerged, giving the district its current appearance. The district remained popular until the 1960s, then experienced a rise in its standard of living and is today sought after for its quality of life, its shops, its green spaces and its atypical architecture.
