Basilica of the Sacré Coeur

This church is located in the artsy Montmartre neighborhood, where any student of "les Beaux Arts" will paint your portrait or caricature in 5 minutes time.

Its streets carry the aroma of crêpes and ice cream. You can sit for tea in one of the "famous" cafes, but I recommend the caramel ice cream with salted butter...mmmm...delicious!

The Sacre Cœur Basilica,with its gardens and views,is simply stunning. Not only for the eyes, but for the ears: there are all kinds of people and groups playing every instrument imaginable.

This is an amazing place, a must-see. Of course, the structure is beautiful, but when the sun strikes its enormous body atop Montmartre Hill, it's just stunning.

There are a couple dozen stairs to reach the foot of the Sacre Cœur, but for those ve can't climb stairs, there's also a small funicular to take you to the top. From the top, there are fantastic views of the city, but we were unluckily caught in the rain.

The terraces, as always, are aptly prepared for passersby and we couldn't resist a delicious crêpe with Nutella and orange juice for a pocket-friendly 4€.

Beautiful church and excellent to take some photos. I found this padlock at this place.

It has an amazing view when you get to the top
