It was at the top of Centre Pompidou where I first caught a good glimpse of Sacré-Cœur, there it stood, so imposing atop the mountain I knew I had to go there.
Alas, it was my last day in Paris and I wouldn’t get up that mountain till the next year.
I love old churches; and Sacré-Cœur is magnificent.
Splendid and totally chaotic on the outside with the best views of Paris, inside, it’s serene, beautiful and comforting.
