I ventured up to Montmartre today, to see the Sacre Coeur and the surrounding views. It was swarming with tourists, despite the less than ideal weather, so I didn't spend much time up there, but I did wander some tiny streets and grab a few lovely photos. It was a great hike!
 |
| A cute little view about 1/3 of the way up the hill. |
 |
| You already know I love streets like this. In case you didn't, I LOVE THESE. |
 |
| Down the back side of the hill, looks a little resort-y eh? |
 |
| I don't know what this is. Look it up. |
 |
| One portion of the view from the front of the church. See that building with the lights on it? (one third from right, half way down) I live about two buildings closer than that. |
 |
| The tramway up the longest and steepest portion of the hill. I actually walked this, meandering around the hillside, and took the tram down. |
 |
| The famous church. No, I didn't go inside because people. |
 |
The busy street coming from the tram to the metro stop, It is pretty much ALL souvenir shops and food stands.
Now, I realized that I haven't shown you any of my neighborhood yet, so I took a few quick pics on my way home, nothing extraordinary, but they give you a bit of a flavor for my neighborhood. It's mostly a through-way to get to larger areas, so even though there are lots of apartments and restaurants and pedestrians, the cars just keep going through. It's relatively quiet, and it's not my favorite place, but hey-it's home.Just kidding. It won't let me upload more pictures. Pictures of my neighborhood to come soon. |
