The 48 Best Things to Do in Paris

"Sacré-Coeur is a Catholic basilica that sits on the highest hill in Paris, in the Montmartre neighborhood. Its height is topped only by the Eiffel Tower. The basilica's distinct white travertine façade gives the Romano-Byzantine structure a unique look among Parisian monuments. The church is open all day to anyone who wishes to visit, though big crowds mean you may have to wait to go inside." - Melissa Liebling-Goldberg, Julia Eskins

"John fights his way up the staircase leading to this church and a gun duel takes place in front of it."

"The Sacred Heart of Paris High atop Montmartre is this distinctive white church, Sacré-Cœur, or "sacred heart." Constructed of travertine stone (the same used in the Arc de Triomphe), the Roman Catholic Church took nearly 40 years to complete and five more years to be consecrated (in 1919). If you choose to approach the church from below, it's around 100 steps, and if you want to climb up into the dome, it's another 270. Your reward for all that exercise is a stunning view of Paris unfolding below. Also worth noting: the basilica's campanile houses La Savoyarde, the largest bell in France, weighing in at 19 tons."
