Maybe it isn't photographed as much because this station lands up in Paris' red light district, and the tourists, or at least certain tourists, don't come down here. Still, the station was pretty cool.

My boys love any unique mode of transit, and they were pretty into the Funiculaire de Montmartre…read more The Funiculaire opened in 1900 and was, at the time, a functioning funicular, with two connected, counterbalancing cars moving in opposite directions. I guess it's been reconfigured in the years since and is now more of an inclined elevator, but "Inclined Elevator de Montmartre" doesn't have the same ring to it. My older son was feeling sick the day we went to Montmartre, and the Funicular provided both entertainment and an easy way up the steep hill to Sacre Couer. It was a short, pleasant walk from the train station and was easy to get on, as it's operated by the same state-owned system as the Metro. The motion was not particularly exciting, but it was cool going up a hill in a big diagonal elevator. The ride was short, and it deposited us at the top of Montmartre, where we could use our energy to see the sights.

We had gone running to get to the top, then gone to mass at Sacre Couer, and just happened across the funicular walking downhill from the church. We took it down the hillside, but could see that it was far more popular going up from the crowd at the station at the bottom of the hill. It's clean, well run and your Paris Metro card works at the gate. It's also great for people watching and views
