Place Dalida

Tucked into the heart of old Montmartre, at the corner of Rue de l'Abreuvoir and Rue Girardon, Place Dalida honours the singer who lived in the neighbourhood for many years. A bronze bust was installed here in the late 1990s and has since become a well-known meeting point for walkers.

From the small square, the view drops down one of the most photographed streets in Paris, with rooftops and, in the distance, the dome of the Sacré-Cœur. The spot is tiny and takes only minutes to cross. Tip: come early in the morning, as the square gets very busy during the day, and continue along the nearby Allée des Brouillards.
