Montmartre, Paris: A History of the Arts

Montmartre, Paris: A History of the Arts
... the scene in your sketchbook or journal. Read my 7 Tips for Travelers for the scoop on enjoying Paris’s cafe culture. Montmartre has several museums worth visiting. More intimate (and less intimidating!) than their more famous counterparts along the Seine, these Montmartre stops are less overwhelming in terms of size.
