Rue Descartes
Quartier de la Sorbonne, 5th arrondissement
Paris, July 2002
“Rue Descartes is a street located on Montagne Sainte-Geneviève in the Quartier de la Sorbonne of the 5th arrondissement of Paris. This street begins at Rue de la Montagne-Sainte-Geneviève (Place Jacqueline-de-Romilly) and ends at Rue Thouin (formerly Rue de Fourcy and Rue des Fossés-Saint-Victor). It continues south as Rue Mouffetard in the Latin Quarter, which explains the presence of numerous businesses such as pubs, shisha bars, Lebanese caterers, bar-restaurants, and bazaars. Because of the presence of these numerous activities, the street is very popular with tourists who like the ‘village’ aspect of the square formed by the intersection of Rue Descartes, Rue de la Montagne-Sainte-Geneviève and Rue de l'École-Polytechnique.” (Rue Descartes, Wikipedia)
