Paris part 3

After a long day in the Louvre museum, the following day was a bit better in the morning, and we took the Metro to Pigalle station. A walk uphill to the National Church of the Sacre Coeur. It looks rather like the Romanesque churches in Zamora, but was actually built in the 1870s. It's at the top of the highest hill in Paris.
You have to go up flights of steps if you don't want to use the funicular


300 steps to the top of the dome, and wonderful views

                                                         


  The Eiffel Tower




After the Sacre Coeur, we went to la Place du Tetre. There were so many people there that I didn't take any photos.
Le Moulin Rouge


The Opera house (I think it's the one with the Phantom)




Some river or other that we saw in Paris....

I think this is the site of the Bastille
