Basilica de Sacre Coeur 🇫🇷

#churches The Basilica de Sacre Coeur is an absolute gem that you can’t miss if you're in Paris! 🗼 Nestled at the highest point of the city in Montmartre, the views alone are worth the visit. The basilica itself is free to enter, which is amazing given its beauty. There’s a small fee (about 7 euros) if you want to climb up to the dome, but trust me, the panoramic view of Paris is totally worth every penny! 🌆 I went up just before sunset, and watching the city lights twinkle as the sun dipped below the horizon was magical. 🌅 The interior of Sacre Coeur is equally breathtaking. The ceiling mosaics, especially the one of Christ in Glory, are incredibly detailed and vibrant. It’s a peaceful space despite the number of visitors. I spent some time sitting in the pews, just soaking up the atmosphere and admiring the architecture. 🕊️ After visiting the basilica, I wandered around the Montmartre district, which is full of charming cobbled streets, art shops, and cozy cafes. Don’t miss the nearby Place du Tertre, where local artists sell their work and offer portrait sketches. 🎨 It’s like stepping into a different era, far removed from the hustle and bustle of modern Paris. #trip #sacrecoeur #montmartre #parisviews #travelparis #basilica
