Sacré-Cœur Basilica (Basilique du Sacré-Cœur)

About
クイックファクト: 白いドームが朝日に映え、長い階段を上ると街が一望できる眺めに思わず息をのむ。内部には世界最大級のモザイク画の一つが広がり、静寂と祈りの空気が肌に伝わってくる。
ハイライト: 外観が雪のように真っ白に見える秘密は、シャトー＝ランド産のトラバーチン石が雨で白いカルサイトをにじませ、年月を経ても外壁が自然に白さを保つからで、夕方の光で石がつやつや光るのが本当に印象的だよ。内部には幅約475平方メートルもの巨大モザイクが圧倒的な視覚効果を生み、さらに鐘は約19トン級の重さがあって、1885年から続く夜間の聖体礼拝が今でも途切れず行われているんだよ。
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes; the dome involves roughly 300 steep steps and there is no elevator.
- Arrive at opening to beat most crowds for the dome, or 30–45 minutes before sunset for golden light but expect queues.
- Use the square in front of the basilica and the north terrace for classic Paris panoramas and framed photos; avoid shooting into midday sun.
- Skip the crypt if short on time, the nave and the vast cupola mosaic offer more visual impact for most visitors.
