Harry’s New York Bar
One of the bars Hemingway frequented was Harry’s New York Bar. Sitting on Paris’ Right Bank near the Paris Opera, the bar opened in 1911 and served as a meeting place for foreigners in the city. The bar was originally in New York. Its owner, Tod Sloan, had it shipped across the Atlantic to Paris. The “Harry’s” in the name came from a waiter who bought it from Sloan in 1923. Harry’s is the birthplace of a number of famous drinks, from Paris 75 to Sidecar.
Address: 5 rue Daunou, 75002
Les Deux Magot
It was once the meeting place for famous writers in Paris, including Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre. Hemingway also frequented the café, and even used it as a setting for his novel The Sun Also Rises.

Jardin du Luxembourg

7 . One day a rich boy bought a magic mirror. When he got home, he looked in the mirror. His face looked sad. He tried to smile and make funny faces, his face looked still sad. Then he did many happy things, but his face always looked sad.
“Oh, what a terrible mirror! It doesn’t work!” he said angrily.
The next day on his way to buy some chocolate, he saw a little girl crying sadly. The rich boy went up to her and asked what had happened.
