"The Sacre Coeur basilica looms over Montmatre with it's unique white domes, which can be viewed from practically every area of Montmatre.The Byzantine /Romanesque design by Paul Abadie was carried out over 40 years by five diiferent architechts and finished in 1914.
Construction began around 1875 with the generous donations of French catholics.
The dizzying climb up the more than 200 spiral steps is worth it, for the panaramic views of Paris from around the dome.
The Basilica is one of the most visited religious sights in Paris and certainly worth the visit . Take care outside of the Basilica as many pick pockets are about, disguised as vendors and such . "

"The Basilica of the Sacred Heart is located in the Montmartre district, on a 130 meter high hill, from where you can observe Paris from above. To reach the Sacré-Coeur Basilica you can use the Montmartre Funicular, a means of transport that has been active since 1900. The views from the dome are not that great and, without a doubt, there are better ones in the city, such as those of the Arc de Triumph and the Tour Montparnasse.
👣How to get there: reachable on foot from Opèra Garnier (1,8km, 15min). Metro stop: Anvers, Line 2.
🎟️Ticket cost:free entry

"En la cima de Montmartre se encuentra la Basílica del Sagrado Corazón (Sacré-Cœur). Desde allí, puedes disfrutar de una vista impresionante de París. A los locales les encanta pasar el rato aquí, especialmente en verano, viendo el atardecer con una bebida en mano. Baja en las estaciones de metro Blanche, Pigalle o Abbesses y sube caminando la colina, o si prefieres una ruta más fácil, toma el Funiculaire. Ya sea que busques un momento espiritual o simplemente quieras admirar la ciudad desde lo alto, Sacré-Cœur promete una experiencia inolvidable."
