Sacre Coeur

A few days ago Tyler and I took the Metro up to Montmartre, which is an area on a 130 meter high hill that looks over the entire city of Paris, France. On top of the hill is a beautiful church named Sacre Coeur. It was built from 1875-1914. The view is stunning!

Then we walked around the area and came across Place du Tertre. It is basically a town square with artists all over. We found some amazing works of art.





Some paintings we really liked.

It was amazing how many artists were in this town square. If you are ever in Paris and want to buy a painting- this is a great place to go. Artists like Van Gogh, Picasso and Monet all painted at this location at one point or another.
