The Ile de la Cité was populated even back in Roman times and, because of Sainte-Chapelle and Notre-Dame, is a popular tourist destination. However, with the shady Place de la Dauphine that has an almost southern French air and its friendly cafes right by the Pont Neuf, it also offers havens of tranquility.

This is a great place to enjoy the essence of Parisien. A tour around (and inside) Notre Dame opens up the world of Gothic France and in the process you discover WWII (through the Memorial to the Martyrs to Deportation) and modern Paris (through the major police station). Of course, Roman Gaul exists at Arenes de Lutece.It has the charm of a relaxed residential community with a touch of tourism that Notre Dame affords. The local cafe scene is the uncommon combination of very French and very welcoming. All in all, a great way to spend a day.
