St. Sulpice is just one long block from one of the entrances to the Luxembourg Garden, one of the most beautiful parks in Paris.
Legend has it that Hemmingway caught and ate the pidgeons that lived in the Garden. True or not it’s just a wonderful place to walk and sit and watch the world go by.

Men play chess under the pergolas near the tennis courts.
And all manner of Parisians walk through the park just to enjoy the trees.
