The park is an extension of the Louvre.

We went to an area of town called: Montmartre

In this area, you will find Sacré-Coeur (a basilica)

Lots of artists with paintings of Paris.

Montmartre

I fell in love with this painting

the moment I saw it.

I couldn't imagine leaving

the city without it, so I didn't.

Me with the artist!
