Paris Le Meurice PARIS LE MEURICE Two day itinerary: Nearby One of the world’s great metropolises, Paris offers up modern thrills alongside an inimitable sense of occasion that captivated literary greats like Hemingway, Wilde and untold others. Across its 20 arrondissements, visitors will find an abundance of art, food, and culture. With this two-day itinerary, guests of Le Meurice are within easy reach of the city’s most storied salons, museums and boutiques. Day One Start the day with a jog in the Jardin des Tuileries, just over the road from the hotel. JARDIN DES TUILERIES Rue de Rivoli, 75001 Paris If you find yourself in need of a reprieve from the bustle of the city, the popular Jardin des Tuileries lends itself very well to a leisurely jog. Located adjacent to the Louvre – and certainly more scenic than a trip to the gym – the classical gardens date back to the 16th century. After your jog, head back to the hotel to freshen up before taking a 10-minute taxi ride or 20-minute walk to Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. RUE DU FAUBOURG SAINT-HONORÉ 75008 Paris Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré ranks among the most exclusive shopping streets in the world. Home to a parade of luxury boutiques from both French and international high fashion houses, it’s ideal territory for an upmarket shopping expedition. Keep an eye out for famous landmarks as well – the President’s residence, Élysée Palace, for instance, is at number 55. Then, take a 15-minute taxi ride to visit Jean-Paul Hévin. JEAN-PAUL HÉVIN T: 01 45 51 77 48 | 23 Avenue de la Motte Picquet, 75007 Paris Having opened his first Parisian boutique in 1987, cocoa savant Jean-Paul Hévin quickly accrued a cult following for his delectable creations. His original shop, located on the Avenue de la Motte Picquet, is a must for sweets lovers, who can browse the extensive range of chocolate truffles, bars, macarons, and other delicacies. For another sweet treat, take a 15-minute taxi ride to Pierre Hermé. The Dorchester, London | 45 Park Lane, London | Coworth Park, Ascot | Le Meurice, Paris | Hôtel Plaza Athénée, Paris Hotel Principe di Savoia, Milan | Hotel Eden, Rome | The Beverly Hills Hotel, Beverly Hills | Hotel Bel-Air, Los Angeles | Dubai (opening 2020) PIERRE HERMÉ T: 01 43 54 47 77 | 72 Rue Bonaparte, 75006 Paris A trip to Paris without sampling French macarons? Mais non. Connoisseurs agree that the colourful, almond flour-based treats found in Pierre Hermé’s patisseries are some of the city’s finest. While classics like rose and salted caramel are certainly delicious, seasonal flavours like lemon with orange blossom and honey are especially tempting. Complete your culinary experience with dinner at Restaurant Le Meurice Alain Ducasse at the hotel, a 10-minute taxi ride away. RESTAURANT LE MEURICE ALAIN DUCASSE T: 01 44 58 10 55 | Le Meurice, 228 Rue de Rivoli, 75001 Paris Tonight, enjoy a two Michelin star dinner in beautiful Grand Siècle surrounds in the comfort of the hotel. Honouring celebrated chef Alain Ducasse’s culinary philosophy, the restaurant at Le Meurice focuses on artisanal, organic ingredients, authentic flavours and elegant presentation. Choose between the a la carte or the seasonal five-course Collection Menu for an exquisite taster of Ducasse’s soulful cuisine. Day two Begin the day with a visit to Editions de Parfums Frederic Malle on Rue de Grenelle, 20 minutes’ walk or a 15-minute taxi ride from the hotel. EDITIONS DE PARFUMS FREDERIC MALLE T: 01 42 22 76 40 | 37 Rue de Grenelle, 75007 Paris The city’s premier scent store, Editions de Parfums Frederic Malle stocks a range of fragrances, candles and diffusers. Known for embracing the skills of the city’s most renowned perfumers, many of the scents here have illustrious creators. Find your perfect signature scent with the help of the knowledgeable team. Then, walk for 20 minutes or take a 10-minute taxi ride to get to Le Palais-Royal. LE PALAIS-ROYAL 8 Rue Montpensier, 75001 Paris Much like the city itself, the Palais-Royal effortlessly mingles the old with the new; today, the 17th century palace features modern architectural flourishes and art installations within its tranquil grounds. Only a short walk from the Louvre, the landmark’s vast gardens and courtyards are well suited to idyllic afternoon strolls. The next stop is Angelina, 10 minutes’ walk from Le Palais-Royal. The Dorchester, London | 45 Park Lane, London | Coworth Park, Ascot | Le Meurice, Paris | Hôtel Plaza Athénée, Paris Hotel Principe di Savoia, Milan | Hotel Eden, Rome | The Beverly Hills Hotel, Beverly Hills | Hotel Bel-Air, Los Angeles | Dubai (opening 2020) ANGELINA T: 01 42 60 82 00 | 226 Rue de Rivoli, 75001 Paris This grand dame of a tearoom, located on the equally grand Rue de Rivoli, is another popular Paris destination. Flocks of sweet-toothed patrons descend on this Belle Époque landmark daily to sample its enticing array of pastries and sweets. Most popular of all is the signature Chocolat Chaud L’Africain, a hot chocolate so rich that you might need a spoon to finish it. Then, walk next door to Librairie Galignani. LIBRAIRIE GALIGNANI T: 01 42 60 76 07 | 224 Rue de Rivoli, 75001 Paris The very first English-language bookshop in continental Europe, the Librairie Galignani has been a Paris institution since its founding in 1801. Well-known to bibliophiles worldwide, this shop is a standout for its intimate ambiance, chic location on the Rue de Rivoli, wide selection of titles and unique history. The final stop of the day, La Comédie Française, is 10 minutes’ walk from the bookshop. LA COMÉDIE FRANÇAISE T: 01 44 58 15 15 | Place Colette, 75001 Paris Founded during the reign of Louis XIV in 1680, La Comédie Française is the only state theatre to possess its own troupe of actors. The theatre company has gone from strength to strength since its creation, and today boasts an enormous repertoire of nearly 3,000 plays from across the centuries. The hotel is then 10 minutes’ walk from La Comédie Française. All journey times are approximate and subject to variation. The Dorchester, London | 45 Park Lane, London | Coworth Park, Ascot | Le Meurice, Paris | Hôtel Plaza Athénée, Paris Hotel Principe di Savoia, Milan | Hotel Eden, Rome | The Beverly Hills Hotel, Beverly Hills | Hotel Bel-Air, Los Angeles | Dubai (opening 2020).

  • Place Saint-Michel the Place Saint-Michel Is
    Place Saint-Michel The Place Saint-Michel is simple – a triangle between two streets, uniform buildings along both, designed by the same architect, a walk of smooth cobblestone. The centerpiece is St. Michael defeating a devil; far above them are four statues symbolizing the four cardinal virtues of prudence, fortitude, temperance, and justice. This monument came to be because of the 1848 Revolution and a cholera epidemic in Paris that followed it which killed thousands. This idea of abstract concepts given human form had been popular during the Revolution, the big one, representing the kind of big virtues – like the Four Cardinal Virtues – that everyone could strive for, instead of a single human being whose actions and legacy would turn people against each other. Simultaneous with the creation of Place Saint-Michel, Napoleon III’s renovation brought the Boulevard Saint-Michel into being, and that is the next part of our walk. Facing the fountain with the river at your back, walk on Boulevard Saint-Michel, it’s the street to your left. Walk away from the river along that street. Ultimately, you’ll be turning left on Rue des Écoles, but it’ll be about five minutes to get there, and you can listen to the next track on the way. Boulevard Saint-Michel The character of the street you’re on – wide-open space lined with trees and long, harmonious buildings, plus, often, a view of some landmark in the distance – was a central part of the renovation plan, or the Haussmann plan, as it’s also known.

  • Syllabus Paris
    Institut de Langue et de Culture Française Spring Semester 2017 Paris, World Arts Capital PE Perrier de La Bâthie / [email protected] Paris, World Capital of Arts and Architecture From the 17th through the 20th centuries Since the reign of Louis XIV until the mid-20th century, Paris had held the role of World Capital of Arts. For three centuries, the City of Light was the place of the most audacious and innovative artistic advances, focusing on itself the attention of the whole world. This survey course offers students a wide panorama on the evolution of arts and architecture in France and more particularly in Paris, from the beginning of the 17th century to nowadays. The streets of the French capital still preserve the tracks of its glorious history through its buildings, its town planning and its great collections of painting, sculpture and decorative arts. As an incubator of modernity, Paris saw the rising of a new epoch governed – for better or worse – by faith in progress and reason. As literature and science, art participated in the transformations of society, being surely its more accurate reflection. Since the French Revolution, art have accompanied political and social changes, opened to the contestation of academic practice, and led to an artistic and architectural avant-garde driven to depict contemporary experience and to develop new representational means. Creators, by their plastic experiments and their creativity, give the definitive boost to a modern aesthetics and new references. After the trauma of both World War and the American economic and cultural new hegemony, appeared a new artistic order, where artists confronted with mass-consumer society, challenging an insane post-war modernity.

    WALK 2 | Jardin du Luxembourg Start – Metro Station, Line 4 St-Germain-des-Prés Approximate Length: 3.4 km 7 8 10 9 N U = Underground Metro Station = Optional route Emerging from the Metro station, you will be on Boulevard Saint Germain. Go to Place Saint Germain des Prés. Pass by the café Les Deux Magots, and in the middle of the plaza across from the church, you will find a Wallace Fountain. Fountain 7 Place St. Germain des Prés, 6th Arr. This fountain is near the entrance to the old abbey church, Saint Germain des Prés. In warm months, the fountain is surrounded by outdoor seating for nearby cafes and restaurants. One 7 cafe is Les Deux Magots, made famous by its former clientele - lost generation writers, surrealist artists, and existentialist philosophers. Today, the cafe attracts tourists and those who want to feel they rubbed shoulders with the ghosts of long dead French intellectuals. Perhaps Hemingway or Sartre drank from this Wallace Fountain after they had too much to drink at Les Deux Magots. Saint Germain des Prés is the oldest church in Paris with parts dating back to the sixth century. If you have time, look inside. Undergoing renovation, it is slowly being restored to its original glory. Cross Boulevard St-Germain and walk south on Rue Bonaparte until you arrive at Place Saint-Sulpice. In the square and across the street from the town hall of the 6th arrondissement is a Wallace Fountain. Fountain 8 Place Saint-Sulpice, 6th Arr. At the southwest corner of the square stands the fountain.
