Known as the center of a flourishing artist community from 1907 to 1914, Montmartre now has a thriving nightlife. While shopping in the boutiques in this lively historic area, you'll still see reminders of the artists who lived and worked here, including Picasso, van Gogh, Dali, Duchamp, and Monet. You'll recognize the neighborhood when you see the white-domed Basilica of the Sacré Coeur rising from the hill's summit. The red-light district just downhill to the southwest has a wide variety of stores and concert venues featuring rock music and experimental contemporary music.

The view is amazing, the area was one of my favorite places during my visit to Paris. A great place to wander, eat, and take it all in.

Super nice place to see the view of the city in one glance. Loved the entire vibe, also very romantic place if you get to visit with a partner. I couldn’t get enough of the view. If only I would be there earlier in the day so i could visit the cathedral. Otherwise on the noon it’s really crowded

The view is absolutely gorgeous! We recommend walking around and absorbing the atmosphere. We recommend coming at the evening so you see when it sunny and at night when all of Paris is with lights
