Our very first night in Paris, was in the Fifth Arrondisement. A Scenic neighborhood up a hill on which the Pantheon is located. This is central Paris, and we found the hotel rooms in our price range to be very small. Close to the Sourbonne with a wonderful assortment of cafes and restaurants.
The Mosquée de Paris interests us for the opportunity to engage in a Hamman. The vigorous massage, exfoliation and spa which is on our “Wish List”
