People walking under the snow in Rue Norvin, Montmartre neighbourhood in Paris, France.


Montmartre is a hill (the butte Montmartre) which is 130 meters high, giving its name to the surrounding district, in the north of Paris in the 18th arrondissement, a part of the Right Bank. Montmartre is primarily known for the white-domed Basilica of the Sacré Cœur on its summit and as a nightclub district. The other, older, church on the hill is Saint Pierre de Montmartre, which claims to be the location at which the Jesuit order of priests was founded. Many artists had studios or worked around the community of Montmartre such as Salvador Dalí, Modigliani, Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso and Vincent van Gogh. It is now a very touristic area surrounding the basilica where narrow streets have lots of small shops and restaurants where typical French delicatessen and artist works can be found. Many people are always walking through the streets to do shopping, taste french cuisine or buy artwork from the artists in the streets.
