The Montmartre Guide
Welcome to Montmartre, my favourite neighbourhood in the entire city of Paris. From the first time I saw the Sacré Coeur, I was in love – the small Parisian streets, the artsy vibes, the cute houses, amazing restaurants, and the most beautiful view ever over the French capital. I swear you, Montmartre is the best part of Paris, and there’s more to it than the big famous church up on the hill.
Sacré Cœur
Of course, the first thing that comes to your mind when speaking of Montmartre, is the gorgeous Sacré Cœur. Put on the highest point of the city, the Sacré Coeur was finished in 1914 (so quite a young building), and after more than a 100 years it's still one of Paris' most popular tourist attractions. Not only that, as the church not only offers great works of art, but also the most amazing view over Paris from the dome (it does feel like a revelation reaching the top after 300 steps on the stairs).
Feniculaire
For those taking metro stop Abbesses and taking the stairs all the way up – there’s another way which doesn’t leave you breathless and sweaty for the first fifteen minutes up the hill. There’s a feniculaire that takes you up and down the Sacré Coeur hill, and the best part is that it’s accessible with a metro ticket! I personally always take the stairs, because it sneaks in a few more minutes of cardio in a day, but for example when my family and Granddad visited me in Paris, the feniculaire was the best invention ever for my poor Grandad that couldn’t take all of these stairs. Thank you, city of Paris, for this great solution!

Place du Tertre
A square as picturesque as it gets, with great works of art, and half of the square that wants to sketch a portrait of you. The square used to be the heart of modern art, with famous painters such as Picasso living there, and the museum of Dalí just a stonethrow away from Place du Tertre - the artistic vibe certainly still is there, but the place has gotten so touristy over the years, there's not much left of the old state of this beautiful square.
Le Relais Gascon
A cute little restaurant my boyfriend and I discovered when wandering the streets of Paris at night is Le Relais Gascon. It offers specialities of the South West of France, and I assure you, it’s simply delicious – and so is the price. We went there twice already, and both times I left the restaurant completely satisfied. The last time we went there I had the salad of the chef, and in case you think “salads are for those who’re not very hungry”, I assure you this salad will satisfy your every need – I couldn’t even finish this salad, as it was so big, and I generally refuse to leave a single thing on my plate. We were seated right next to the kitchen, and 70% of the time people order a salad, just because they’re so big and delicious. Definitely a must-go when in Montmartre!

Montmartre looks so dreamy and absolutely magical Imke! I loved reading your gorgeous guide, so interesting to read and learn about a stunning place you love and adore so much. You look totally beautiful as always, so street and stylishly stunning; that COAT! All the heart eyes. Place du Tertre looks like something out of a blissful painting, the sweetest little square. I went to Paris when I was younger and I can't remember if we visited Montmartre as I was too little, but if I ever go back I'll be sure to make that my first destination :D <3
