Paris' largest resting place, Cimetière du Père Lachaise, bien sûr. If you are going to be in Paris for a while, this is the one you should see. If a short visit, there are many other smaller ones that you can visit.
Unlike Starman, I always go to Père Lachaise when I'm in Paris. Naturally, it's not to everyone's taste, but I love it! (And your photo captures the atmosphere so well, V.)
I can't imagine anyone making a cemetery a major thing to see. Père Lachaise is interesting, but it's not a major attraction.
ReplyDeletebeing in Paris last month wished to visit it , unfortunately time was running so quickly and it was impossible ...next time !

This photo makes it look like a miniature village.
ReplyDeleteThis photo would draw me there.
ReplyDeleteThis is a gorgeous photo, V. Lots of mood, interest. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteIt took 7 trips before I finally got there & I'd love to return & spend more time. Really fascinating.

ReplyDeletemiles to go before I sleep;)
ReplyDeleteA very ominous atmosphere in this one. Good decision to go with B&W.
ReplyDeleteEven though I have been to Paris several times, I have never been to Pere Lachaise. This needs to be remedied!
