Montmartre


It's always good to walk around Montmarte. Such a vibrant district in which gives me a different vibe from many other areas in Paris. Though it's quite packed with tourists, the buildings are cute and cozy, with the zigs and zags down the hill (to add on those cobblestones that are killing my heels)... There are street artists, souvenir shops and restaurants centered in the area down the street behind the Sacré Coeur. When I first visited the area early last year, I saw only French artists but today there seemed to be quite a few Chinese ones to serve the Asian tourists. How thoughtful... Anyway, along the way there are a few small restaurants hidden in different corners, very interesting with cozy decors, making me promise to myself I have to try them one of these days.

18th arrondissement
