Montmartre
Moulin Rouge, Sacre Coeur and beautiful old houses, only a few of many interesting objects in the quarter of Montmartre. But Montmartre cannot be described or shown, Montmartre has to be felt and experienced.
Hardly more beautiful walks are conceivable than can be taken in Montmartre. Climb Sacre Coeur (the hill Montmartre is the highest elevation in Paris), explore the church, enjoy the many artists around the little square. Take some time in a cafe, enjoy a cappucino. Beautiful!
