Metro: Odeon (lines 4,10), Mabillon (line 10)
Odeon, with its large student population (many universities in the area),
cinema, and trendy cafés (like Le Dix, on la rue de l'Odeon, and Chez
Georges) is a very lively quartier with much to do and much to see. If you've
got a rendez-vous at Odeon, the statue of Danton is a nice meeting place
right in front of the metro station. A bit of history: the statue was placed
there toward the end of the 19th century. Odeon is also where Le Procope,
the oldest café/restaurant in Paris, is located.
