And you are not wrong. From humble beginnings as a pagan place of worship, the basilica has now risen above the rest of Paris, offering sweeping views of the city and a quiet place to pray.\n\nContrary to popular belief, of all the churches, basilicas and other ecclesiastical buildings in Paris, the basilica, as it is commonly called in French, is actually quite modern in comparison. . After all, the building was built between the beginning and the middle of the 20th century.\n\nWhat is perhaps most unique about the structure is that the white stone of the basilica remains so pristine in the smoky city. The reason for this \"virgin\" is due to the calcite in its rock from the nearby Château-Landon quarry.\n\nWhenever it rains, the calcite acts as a bleaching agent, ensuring that the Sacred Heart retains its \"smooth and creamy\" appearance."},{"metadata":{"width":576,"height":1024},"type":"video","content":"https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/freeguides-prod.appspot.com/o/assets%2Ftours%2FIgxztUGf4GF4dC9KCfSR%2FSnaptik_7071566572288068870_world-walkerz.mp4?alt=media&token=94e12074-07a7-42df-8b4f-91e86c7cd132"},{"type":"text","content":"# THE SINKING HOUSE IN MONTMARTRE\nThe Sinking House is next to the Sacré-Cœur on the right (if you're looking at it). Now before you go out and search for the sunken house in Montmartre, you must know that the \"sunken house\" is not actually a sunken house. That's right, people. It's just a pretty simple camera trick. Just tilt your camera to the left until the hill is leveled.

Hôtel Demarne, a beautiful residence from the Executive Committee, has been completely redesigned to host temporary exhibitions as well as Café Renoir.\nA short distance from the Place du Tertre, three Renoir Gardens surround the Montmartre Museum and overlook the vineyards. They offer an exceptional view of the Clos Montmartre vineyard and beyond the vast plains north of Paris."},{"type":"link","content":"https://museedemontmartre.fr/"},{"metadata":{"width":576,"height":1024},"type":"video","content":"https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/freeguides-prod.appspot.com/o/assets%2Ftours%2FIgxztUGf4GF4dC9KCfSR%2FSnaptik_7006743123892260101_alix-paris-decor.mp4?alt=media&token=bea761dc-64ea-49bf-9e63-98f1a3482861"}]},{"address":"La Maison Rose","location":{"longitudeDelta":0.14321712068773834,"latitudeDelta":0.09219986310369421,"latitude":48.88795321819621,"longitude":2.3396519500000013},"media":[{"type":"text","content":"# Snap photos of La Maison Rose"},{"metadata":{"width":1000,"height":1250},"type":"img","version":1,"content":"https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/freeguides-prod.appspot.com/o/assets%2Ftours%2FIgxztUGf4GF4dC9KCfSR%2F845f6f45e2153511f6d3a232c27cc547.jpg?alt=media&token=ac9b9483-d556-4d99-91e1-9ed8aabac46e"},{"type":"text","content":"La Maison Rose is the kind of place that you stop and think ‘wow’, I could stay here a while.
