Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris
C.I.U.P.
The C.I.U.P. is a student quarter established in 1925, providing homes for about 10,000 students, scientists, and artists from 120 countries. It has 40 houses attributed to individual nations. The individual houses organise top quality cultural and political events. Among the most remarkable buildings are the Fondation Deutsch de la Meurthe, the Heinrich Heine House (Maison Heinrich Heine - Fondation de l'Allemagne), the Swedish Student House (Maison des Etudiants Suédois), and the Swiss Pavilion (Pavillon Suisse) which was built in 1933 on plans of Le Corbusier.

Parc Montsouris
Considered one of the most colourful Parisian parks, a local favourite, the Parc Montsouris was opened in 1878, having been designed by Alphand for Baron Haussmann. A large man-made lake and waterfalls are surrounded by long stretches of gently sloping lawns. Bronze statues are to be found studding the grounds, amongst the 1,400 trees, including such exotic varieties as the giant sequoia and the ginkgo. The park is featured in the film Cléo de 5 à 7. It is popular among families (there are two playground areas for children) and students.

Le Temps des Cerises
If you are looking for quality French food and a large choice of good and affordable wine, this is the place to go. This is what we can call a restaurant populaire (as opposed to other posh and expensive places around) with a friendly staff, a very nice atmosphere, no way to reserve a table, just show up and the patron will find a place for you (arrive before 20:00 if you don't want to queue up, especially at weekends), turn off your mobile phone or you will be kicked out! The Boudin à la Normande (blood sausage) is a must and you can also get very decent goose liver and other French specialities such as Salade de Museau.
