I studied in Montpellier for nearly a year in 04/05 and it was one of the best experiences of my life. I walked through Place de la Comédie at least twice every single day during that time, and I can honestly say it truly is the heart and soul of the city. The square never stops buzzing, whatever time of day or night. All throughout the year there ...

I originally went to college in Montpellier in the 80's. Re-visiting La Place de la Comedie was really exciting for me. The bars/cafes are a great way to write postcards and just relax. It's so much fun to watch the families and couples walking around (a favorite past time on Sundays in particular). It is a great place to take pictures and explore the little tiny roads off La Place. Enjoy!

Great place to people watch. Beautiful buildings surround the area. Lots of trees.
