Captivating Charm of Montmartre, Paris
#europetrip
Montmartre, perched atop a hill in Paris's 18th arrondissement, is a vibrant quarter known for its bohemian past and stunning panoramic views of the city. This historic neighborhood, once the haunt of artists like Picasso and Van Gogh, retains a unique village-like charm that continues to attract tourists and locals alike.
A Stroll Through Artistic Legacy
Walking through the cobbled streets of Montmartre, visitors can feel the artistic soul of Paris. The area's most famous landmark, the Basilica of Sacré-Cœur, sits at its highest point, offering not only spiritual solace but also one of the best vantage points over Paris. The white-domed basilica is both a photographic marvel and a peaceful retreat from the bustling city below.
The Bustling Place du Tertre
Just a few steps away from the basilica is Place du Tertre, where artists set up their easels each day to paint and sell their artworks. This lively square is the heart of Montmartre’s artistic scene, bustling with creativity. It’s a place where you can get your portrait sketched by today’s local artists while soaking in the historical ambiance that once inspired some of the greatest painters.
Cafés and Cabarets
Montmartre is home to many quaint cafés and historic cabarets. The legendary Cabaret du Lapin Agile offers a glimpse into the area’s vibrant night scene where the likes of Maurice Utrillo and other notable figures once gathered. For a quieter experience, the many cafes scattered throughout offer the perfect spot for people-watching or enjoying a classic French meal with a glass of wine.
Exploring Montmartre’s Museums
For those interested in diving deeper into the history and culture of Montmartre, the neighborhood boasts several museums. The Musée de Montmartre, located in a former artist's studio, displays artworks by Modigliani and Utrillo and provides insights into the area’s fascinating artistic heritage. Additionally, the Espace Dalí features a collection of Salvador Dalí’s works, emphasizing Montmartre's continued importance in the art world.
Practical Tips
- Wear Comfortable Shoes: The hilly streets and staircases of Montmartre require sturdy footwear.
- Visit Early or Late: To avoid the crowds, especially around Sacré-Cœur, consider visiting early in the morning or later in the evening.
- Explore Beyond the Tourist Spots: Venture beyond the well-trodden paths to discover Montmartre's hidden gardens, vineyard, and lesser-known streets that offer a more authentic glimpse of the neighborhood.
Montmartre remains a captivating blend of history, art, and Parisian charm, making it an essential part of any visit to Paris. Whether you're exploring its artistic landmarks, enjoying a show at a cabaret, or simply wandering its picturesque streets, Montmartre promises a memorable experience imbued with the spirit of Paris.

The Sinking House in Paris
Nearest metro stations: Anvers/ Abbesses/ Château Rouge (depending on which direction you start walking)
Address: Parvis du Sacré-Cœur, 75018 Paris, France
Famous for: the funny view of this house from behind the slope - it’s not actually sinking!
Tourist spots nearby: Sacre Coeur, Place du Tertre, Museum of Montmartre, Wall of Love
Personally I find it more interesting than the Eiffel Tower as it’s more visually striking and playful. If you visit in person and stand in front of this house, you will find nothing special- it erects firm and square on the room without any sign of sinking. You will have to walk behind a small slope to look at the house again, then you can play with the angle and take photos of the house as if it was sinking half way, a quarter or almost completely.
The area is also famous for coffee shops, bakeries and local pubs. After walking to the 3-4 tourist spots, a cup of well-brewed coffee is a nice way to wrap up the day tour.

Wall of Love in Paris
Nearest metro station: Abbesses (once you get out of the station it is the Wall
Address: Square Jehan Rictus, Pl. des Abbesses, 75018 Paris, France
Famous for: having the word “love” in different languages on the wall
Tourist spots nearby: Quatier de Montmartre, Saint Pierre Hall (contemporary art centre), Museum of Montmartre, Dalida monument, Sinking House
An Instagramable tourist spot, there are many couples and families gathering around the wall to take sweet photos together. While there is nothing particularly special about the wall in other ways, there is always a line or groups of tourists there so you will need to wait in order to go close to the wall for taking pictures.
Luckily there are quite a selection of other things to see in Montmartre, you can easily spend a day walking around the area and wrapping up the day in a quiet coffee shop/bakery or continental restaurant. #celebratewithtrip #montmartre #france

Vive La Paris!

On our way to Louvre we walked along the river Seine on a warm autumn morning was relaxing and amusing. We saw the other side of the louvre. Most of the landmarks in Paris are walking distance so that was what we did, we walked to
Sacre-Coeur or the Sacred Heart is located on the the hill in Montmartre.
Sacre-Coeur is accessible by walking of by public transportations. We walked from Arch de Triomphe because we wanted to see all the amazing buildings, the little shops and the small streets where the lovely neighborhoods are. We passed by Moulin Rouge, a very popular cabaret in Paris where spectacular shows exists.
We reached Sacre-Coeur and looking at this majestic and beautiful church is just amazing. I can’t stop staring at this magnificent work of art standing tall in front of me.
The Sacred Heart church was done with critical hands and was built with fine artistry. Looking at this great piece of art made me even more grateful that I could enjoy this beauty that was already here even before I was born. The church and the buildings were restored properly so it will still be there for a longer time.
Looking at all these lovely buildings were like looking at an expensive piece of art in a museum.

Montmartre is one of the most beautiful districts of Paris. It is impossible to visit Paris without spending a few hours walking around in what is called the village of Paris. If I have a piece of advice for you, get up early, if you can be there at the sunrise and get off at the Lamarck-Caulaincourt metro station, which will already surprise you at its beauty. Then go and see the famous Maison Rose that is so instagramable and the vineyards of Montmartre, then stroll to the very renowned restaurant Le Consulat and finish your walk at the Sacre-Coeur. You can take a ticket to go up the basilica for a breathtaking view of Paris. It’s worth a hundred steps to climb.

The Basilica of Sacré-Cœur de Montmartre
Last full day to tour the remaining few attractions of Paris. This place was particularly near to my hotel so I decided to visit here first thing in the morning. Praying hard for good weather as I stared at the clouds. Nice place to visit if you are into architectures and probably pay to enter if you are a believer. If you are climbing through the park, BEWARE of the black Africans and DO NOT let them tie any strings on your wrists or you will be scammed as they gather around you (especially for solo travellers).

Paris trip in winter❄️
It was -2°C when we reached Paris, we are freezing but luckily the weather became warmer in the following days🫶🏻
We managed to visit the Eiffel Tower, Trocadéro, Champs-Élysées, Montmartre, Notre dame, Arc de Triomphe etc. The area that we stayed in is very convenient because it is close to the Eiffel Tower, Dupleix Station and Rue de commerce. Everything was nearby.

A Day In Montmartre - Food, Music, Views
Me & my mother took a walking tour around Montmartre & we have no regrets. This charming little area will have a hold on your heart for a lifetime!
We started the walk from Moulin Rouge before proceeding to Van Gogh’s brother’s home, where Van Gogh spent a few years in Paris to pursue art. Learning the history of these places were nicely accompanied by the amazing architecture of these buildings - there were so many photo opportunities as well because of how symmetrical the streets were, how the cobblestone ground complimented the contrast of the skies.
There’s also a Le Petit Train service, which i believe is 8 Euros, but I would recommend discovering this place by foot as the views were more aesthetic that way.
There’s a market area for caricatures, paintings and food that tourists adore. Boulangeries are also common around this area, selling gelatos and pastries, even crepes!
Sacre-Cour was the end point of the walking tour, and the views across from it were unbelievably beautiful. There are a lot of people selling ‘illegally’ here though, so watch out for pickpockets/scams! Do not buy the water, it’s dirty!
Walking around Montmartre, you can also stumble upon La Maison Rose, which was seen in Emily In Paris as well! This is a common photo spot that tourists adore. #emilyinparis #lamaisonrose
