Basilique Sacre Coeur Top 3

• Admire the nationalistic decorations in Paris' Basilique Sacre Coeur, beginning with its Romansque-Byzantine architectural style to its triple-arched portico that features statues of Joan of Arc and King St. Louis IX.
• Gaze upon the apse mosaic, the largest of its kind in the world, designed by Luc-Olivier Merson, which depicts Christ along with several other religious figures.
• Climb to the top of Basilique Sacre Coeur's dome affords a great view of the church's 80 columns, whilst the view from this point surveys the entire city of Paris.

Getting There

Paris' extensive Metro subway system is the best way to get to the Basilique Sacre Coeur, and two lines service the area. The M2 train stops at Anvers, whilst the M12 train stops near the Abbesses. Because Paris is one of the world's most visited cities, it is easy for international travellers to arrive via high speed train services throughout Europe, or book flights into Paris' two international airports, the Orly and Charles de Gaulle. No less than six major train stations serve Paris, with Gare du Nord, Gare de l’Est, and Gare de Lyon providing the most international routes.
