Paris Montmartre Postcard

Montmartre, perched on a hill in the 18th arrondissement of Paris, is one of the city’s most atmospheric and historic neighbourhoods. Long associated with bohemian life. Its cobbled streets, ivy-draped buildings, and open-air art squares still echo with that creative spirit. At the heart of Montmartre is the stunning Basilica of the Sacré-Cœur, a gleaming white church that offers panoramic views of Paris from its steps. The climb up through winding stairways or a ride on the funicular is rewarded with one of the most breathtaking vistas in the city. Beyond its iconic landmarks, Montmartre charms with its village-like atmosphere. The Place du Tertre, a square filled with painters and portrait artists, feels like a step back in time. Quaint cafés, tucked-away alleys, and the former homes of artists add to the neighbourhood’s allure. You can visit the Musée de Montmartre to delve into the area’s artistic past, which speak to its colourful nightlife history. Despite its popularity with tourists, Montmartre retains an authentic character that continues to inspire creativity and romance.
