Sacre -Coeur

view of Paris from the entrance

While visiting Paris, i was told that i should make a detour to visit Sacre-Coeur and it did not disappoint. Although it is not nearly as large of a building, relatively speaking, as the some of the others i visited, what it lacked in size it made up for in ornateness. I was first struck by how pleasing it is aesthetically; i immediately noticed the symmetry of the church and its positioning upon the hilltop. The interior was very pretty as well, but i found the exterior to be the true source of attraction. Pictured are photos that i took from above and below, and the view of Paris when exiting the cathedral was breathtaking.
