Also The Turkish Jesus in 1919 to your sacred heart blessed with the name “Sacré Coeur / Sacred Heart”, that is, this church, for which this name was deemed appropriate, was given to me in December 2015, MartiniqueWhile I was visiting the island during my birthday holiday in , I saw the church on a hill among tropical trees, Sacre-Coeur de BalataIt reminds me of . In fact, the construction of this church is quite controversial. It is also a symbol of the conflict between the religious weight of France and secular thought. This is a very long story... Those who wish Chevalier de la Barre They can get an idea about the subject by reading the article.
Montmartre HillYou can visit this structure in a tour program in . M2 metro You can reach it by getting off at the Antwerp station of the line and going up the opposite slope. at the top of the hill Square Louis-Michel passed as Sacre Coeur ParkWhen you arrive at , you can either go up the stairs in the park or the stairs further to the left.
But if you want to choose the easiest one, just in the middle of the two Montmartre FunicularUsing will be both more practical and more fun. There is a nice restaurant-bar on the left at the point where the funicular reaches the top. Corcoran's Irish Pub there.
When you climb the hill, you reach the large stairs in front of the church. Everyone sits on these stairs and watches the view of Paris. Frankly, I can't say that this view is very enjoyable, other than watching Paris from above. If you want a wider view, I think it is one of the best places to see Paris. You need to go up to the top of the Sacre Coeur Basilica, the Dome.
Paris looking down from the entrance of the Sacre Coeur Basilica concrete pile It may even look like but in Paris parks-gardens Those who read his articles know very well how large green areas Paris is covered with. It looks like it from above, but Paris is a green city; yok right nowconcrete pile” means 🙂
Also, these stairs in front of the church are a place where people try to make money by showing off their talents. If you are lucky, you may come across people performing very interesting acrobatics. There may be people who spoil the atmosphere of Paris only when they do something accompanied by cheesy music, but don't mind.
And even if you are tired, keep a smile on your face as you sit, because you will be in hundreds of photographs whether you want it or not; Everyone is taking photos non-stop :)
The square in front of the Sacre Coeur Basilica is always lively and lively. There is also an old man making souvenirs out of metal while talking all the time in front of the church. uncle you will see; ever since I can remember uncle He just sits there, talks and does things, and always has visitors :)
We enter the church from the left side of the stairs at the main entrance of the Sacre Coeur Basilica. Even though this place is perceived as a museum, it is ultimately a museum. place of worship and therefore there is no entrance fee. As I said, Taking photos inside is prohibited. Sometimes the officers tolerate, sometimes they warn harshly.
As soon as you enter, you encounter a very pleasant atmosphere. The white domed ceiling, those beautiful mosaics, frescoes, columns, decorations; everything is truly fascinating. I like watching the ceiling decorations and burning candles the most; And sitting on chairs and relaxing, watching the expressions of admiration on the faces of passers-by... There are so many kinds of people and so many beliefs in the world...
The architectural style of the church in Istanbul Ayasofyafrom and in Venice St. Mark's CathedralIt was inspired by , so we can say that it is an eclectic mix of both places of worship. Maybe that's why this basilica is more familiar to me, more U.S It is coming.
One of the interesting features of this church is that the Holy Quran is read 7/24 in the holy relics section of Topkapı Palace. The Bible has been read and prayed for 1/1885 in the Sacre Coeur Basilica since August 7, 24. to be. Volunteers have been reading the Bible and praying here day and night for more than a hundred years. Apart from those working at the monastery, those who come voluntarily continue this ritual…
While making a U-shaped tour inside the church, you can follow the flow of people's walking path, light a candle if you wish, and then, after completing a complete tour, exit through the other door and return to normal life. Let me say this to those who want to plant candles: When there is no place left to plant candles, the staff comes and extinguishes all the candles and puts them away! my book A Week in ParisI also talked about this issue in .
When you go out, if you wish and of course 300 digits If you can afford to climb, You can climb to the dome of the Sacre Coeur Basilica. Although I have visited this place many times, I went up to this dome for the first time in April 2017 for a vlog shoot. In fact, I recommend it to everyone. Because watching Paris from above, from the dome of the Sacre Coeur Basilica, is a very different feeling.
However, I would like to remind you that climbing here is not suitable for the elderly, pregnant women and families with small children. Because as you climb up, the stairs get narrower, and going up and down can make you dizzy after a while. But the view you encounter as soon as you reach the top is worth all this pain...
There is a fee to enter the dome. You can find current prices and other information from the official website link at the end of the article. The box office at the entrance may not always be open, so you have to buy tickets from the vending machines with your credit card. The entrance of the Dome is just to the left of the basilica, so you can reach it by going down the stairs on the left without entering the main entrance.

Hello Mr. Ahmet,
I was very excited to travel to Paris for the first time, I came across your articles while doing a research on the internet, I thought I was God's beloved servant, because we had access to everything so easily, from transportation to food and drink, without getting lost or having a hard time, it was as if I had been to Paris many times, thanks to you, the cafes, streets, avenues, that fate was familiar, it was a 3-day trip. Despite this, I had the chance to see many of the places I wanted to see without wasting any time.
Of course, there are so many more places to visit and see that we had to leave saying see you next time, but from now on, thanks to your shares, we now have the convenience of easily reaching the other places we remember.
I hope more people discover you and follow you. I live by believing that life is better when shared, and I thank you very much for your efforts.
Thank you very much… I hope you have many nice trips… Happy days…
Hello Mr. Ahmet,
You have made such nice publications for everyone who will visit Paris that I have been reading all your articles for days. First of all, thank you for your efforts :) I have a question, we are planning to go to the Montmarte tape in the evening, are all the shops and cafes there open after 8 in the evening? I think the Sacre Basilica will be closed at those hours. So, if we think about it, are they safe places to spend time in the evening? Thank you in advance
Hello, the restaurants on the hill will definitely be open for dinner service, the souvenir shops will definitely be open, but as the time progresses, it will not be easy to find an open place other than eating and drinking places.
It is also a safe area at night, as long as you do not go down to the eastern slopes of the hill.
Thank you also for your nice comment.
Happy Days
Describe the lively and sparkling atmosphere of Rue des Martyrs in one of your articles... And just west of the basilica is the painters' hill.
Hello there
You are right, of course, it is necessary to write about almost every street in Paris separately, but I published an article about the places you mentioned with the title of Montmarte Hill. You can find it at this link:
https://www.pariste.net/montmartre-tepesi-butte-montmartre/
In addition, the words shown in different colors in all articles refer to the link containing the relevant article. For example, you can click on all the links one by one, such as "Montmartre", and access all related articles.
It is possible to lose yourself among the articles, just like on the streets of Paris :)
Thanks very much for your comment
