| In the heart of Paris and near City island, the small Ile Saint-Louis (Saint- Louis island) is
one of the loveliest districts of Paris: nice and romantic river banks, 18th century
houses, village like life.
The whole island almost retains its 18th century outlook.
Recently, the Ile Saint-Louis has become very fashionable and
expensive.
Look for Bertillon,
the best French ice-cream maker, at 31, rue Saint-Louis en l'Ile. This always crowded shop
is a nice stop a few hundreds meters away from Notre-Dame.

Saint-Louis through the garden at the back of Notre-Dame.
