A real nightmare going home everyday, isn't it? They couldn't find another name more appropriate for this street than "Rue du Calvaire". At least the locals don't need to go to gym anymore... Just wandering in Montmartre was a real delight because we had the chance to discover funny / interesting places like this one.

Off The Beaten Path: Eglise St-Germain-L'Auxerrois in Place du Louvre

This beautiful church, named after St Germanus, Bishop of Auxerre in the 5C, is located in Place du Louvre and is dominated by an interesting combination of architectural styles: Romanesque (belfry), Gothic (chancel), Flamboyant (porch and nave) and Renaissance (doorway). St-Germain became parish church in the 14C when the Valois moved to Louvre. Important painters (Coypel, Chardin), architects (Le Vau, Soufflot), sculptors (Coysevox) and poets (Jodelle, Malherbe) are buried in this church.

One of the things that I liked the most in Paris is the fact that you can admire wonderful views of the town from different high points (Tour Eiffel, Tour Montparnasse, Notre-Dame's towers or Sacre-Coeur). Here is one from the 5th floor of Centre Georges Pompidou, from the entrance to the exhibition.

As I mentioned before, we didn't plan anything when we've visited Montmartre, that's why our pleasure to discover different places, monuments, historic buildings was bigger. Wandering in Montmartre we found on a street Tristan Tzara's house made by the architect Adolf Loos.

In 1997, the angle of the rues Girardon and Abreuvoir in the Butte Montmartre in Paris was inaugurated as "Place Dalida" in memory of this great singer. In a corner a life-size bust of Dalida was erected.

Diana.. Beautiful pictures and great tips. We are going in December and will spend Christmas in Paris. I can't wait. Tom | clementine31129 Sun Jan 27, 2008 16:41 UTC
I have heard about the Hotel des Sens, and was wondering if it is necessary to pay any admission of any sort to visit the gardens, as I have heard they are lovely. Thanks for your help! | Fam.Rauca Sun Jan 20, 2008 19:39 UTC
Hi Diana! Your page is very interesting and the photos are excellent. Is a great performance to be on the fifth place, but your Paris page is a very good work. Gabriela | ashluvsu Tue Jan 15, 2008 13:15 UTC
