The second day started a
bit later than the first one. Our objective was to see the last landmarks of
the city which we haven’t seen a day before, therefore it felt like a “run”
through Paris.
First stop was Sacré-Cœur, lovely church, different architectural style than Notre-Dame, located
in a lovely area of Paris. Going all the way up to Sacré-Cœur, although the way
might be strenuous, gives you an amazing view of the city.
From there we walked to Moulin Rouge. The streets close to Sacré-Cœur are crowded with
artists displaying their works and tourists. I really enjoyed this part of
Paris.
After Moulin Rouge, we
made a very quick stop to see the Arc de Triomphe.
Next stop was the Eiffel Tower, unfortunately we did not
go up, there was a huge crowd and we just didn’t have the time for it. But we
did walk the lovely park where the tower is.
And the last stop of the
day was the Père Lachaise cemetery. I was surprised that so many famous
people are buried there. At the beginning I thought we will definitely look for
some of these graveyards, but the awful hot weather made me just apathetic,
trying to hide myself from the sun. We did see one of the famous graves, the grave
of Proust.
After two rushed days
through Paris, I realized I really don’t like the city, is way too big and too crowded,
and very dirty. If I will ever visit it again, it will be just to see some of
the museums and for the Disneyland.
