cabaret Moulin Rouge is the ultimate symbol of bohemian Montmartre. Toulouse-Lautrec did a lot of his painting work there. Dancers and clients both sat for him. A lot of his famous works depicts the cabarets of Montmartre.

Sacre Coeur is a world known Montmartre icon. It is a striking sight. All white and shiny, and with all of Paris lying at its feet (and yours)

Stop 3
place du tertre is often referred to as Artists' Square. Local artists sell their art there. Or you see them put the final touches to their paintings. You can also have your portrait drawn. Or your caricature, if you dare!

The locals of Montmartre have their own vineyards. And they are proud of it. The plot of land is small, but it is very scenic. Hard to find, but so worth it. The view is striking - with vines in the foreground, and the white sacré coeur church in the background.

Dalida was a French pop singer. A pop icon really. Very kitchy. And very, very popular. And she remains popular today. And so does her bust. We will spend time with the bust of Dalida. You won't believe the stories!
