A classic French breakfast entails some bread, jams with butter, a juice and a coffee. Simple but enjoyable start in the alfresco setting.

La Basilique du Sacré Cœur
(Sacred Heart of Montmartre)
(Sacred Heart of Montmartre)
Fantastic panoramic views of the city and the finale lead up and final scene to where John Wick 4 was filmed. One can scale to the top either through Rue Foyatier where the staircase scene was filmed, and highly recommended the track through the garden for both experiences.
Rue Foyatier
(Either on the trip up or down from Sacré Cœur)
(Either on the trip up or down from Sacré Cœur)
The steps in Montmartre leading up to the Basilique du Sacré-Cœur, known
as "Rue Foyatier Steps," are steep and consist of 222 steps. There is a mechanical lift at the side for a fee but enjoy the whole experience.
- Historic Climb: The steps were constructed in the late 19th century to
facilitate access to the basilica, which sits on the highest point in
the city. They were completed in 1914.
- Pilgrimage Site: As the steps lead to the Sacré-Cœur Basilica, they are often taken as part of a pilgrimage route for both locals and tourists seeking a spiritual experience.

Pierre Hermé
Pierre Hermé is a world-renowned pastry chef and chocolatier hailing
from France. Often referred to as the "Picasso of Pastry," he has
revolutionized the world of desserts with his innovative creations and
artistic approach to pastry-making.
Prices are fixed even if you buy more at €2.80each. Gift boxes are a small additional charge.
We tried their two most popular and staff recommendations. A chocolate and passion fruit mix, double up order on their star rose and lychee flavored one and an additional yogurt and zesty one. All were home runs and quite the experience.
You too can buy an Herme, cash and color of choice.

Highly recommend to check out Place Du Tertre a unique and charming square located in Montmartre. It is famous for its artistic atmosphere and historical significance. Its a free art gallerie by artist creating work in their own unique styles. One could also get their portraits done there or take home a one-of-a-kind art piece of Paris.

Bouquiniste Paris
Enjoy the unique sellings along the river bank of old used book stalls. It was raining today with only a few stalls open, however its still a great look through at their retro posters as well as old magazines, while making one's way to Notre Dame.

The Centre Pompidou
The Paris Pompidou Centre caused uproar when first unveiled in 1977. With its guts of pipes and tubes on display, it was denounced as a blight on the skyline. Home to the museum of modern art for a future visit perhaps. Take picture first, google about it another time. Another famous architectural building like MoPop in Seattle.
