The Sacré-Cœur Basilica (French: Basilique du Sacré-Cœur, “Basilica of the Sacred Heart”) is a Roman Catholic basilica and popular landmark in Paris, France, dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Sacré-Cœur is pronounced /sak?e kœ?/. The basilica is located at the summit of the butte Montmartre (Montmartre butte), the highest point in the city.
On the second day, we were rather tired already, seing much and doing a lot, and so we decided to take it a little slower. We went this time to the places away from the center of the city and headed to Basilique du Sacré-Cœur, which is a brilliant cathedral on a hill in Paris. From there you can see most of the city, and witness a whole range of artist and street performers. There are allot of little shops selling mini Eifel towers and such, and quite a few con artist as well. Do be wary of strangers. The view is excellent and the church is beautiful. Over here, don’t take photos. Staff from the church will scold you and tell you off, like they did to somebody else. Not me
A must see. Lie on the grass on a sunny afternoon and let the world go by.
