Recommended Internet Sites

 

 

The Sacre-Coeur Catholic  was built at the end of the 19th century at the top of  Montmartre hill in Paris. Its famous white  architecture dominates the city, and offers a wonderful view. The nearby streets of Montmarte are full of artists and restaurants. 

Sit on the steps leading down to Paris, and the cable car and listen to the many street musicians.

The interior of the church contains one of the worlds largest mosaics, and depicts Christ with outstretched arms. The nearby bell tower contains the ``Savoyarde''. Cast in Annecy in 1895, it is one of the worlds heaviest at 19 tons.
