Interior of Sacre-Coeur Basilica

Basilique Sacre-Coeur

My favorite Paris view.

Founded on the island where a natural north-south highway crosses the Seine River, some 233 miles (375 kilometres) upstream from the river mouth on the English Channel, Paris, the largest city proper of continental Europe and the capital of France, is over 2,000 years old.

For hundreds and hundreds of years, by a process never successfully explained, Paris has radiated an enchantment irresistible to millions around the world, including hosts of people who would live and die without ever seeing the place.

Be Here Now.

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
