Photo du Jour - Basilica


This is the Sacre Coeur. It sits high on a hill in the northern suburb of Montmartre. Inside the chapel there is a strict silence rule so that all you can hear is the choir singing. It is overwhelming to sit and think of all the people who have come here to worship or seek solace over its history. The buildings means so much to so many and has weathered many wars. It was truly a stunning place to visit.
