Montmartre Hill
Many commercial districts are developed around the Sacré-Coeur Cathedral, which symbolizes Montmartre Hill, and most of them are easily accessible within a 15-minute distance. Some package tour agencies include it in their optional tours for around 40 euros, but considering that it is a place where you can freely tour via public transportation rather than a separate admission fee or cost, I think it is a somewhat excessive product.
Montmartre Hill is bustling with countless people, and it is overflowing with tourists leisurely dining at cafes and outdoor tables in front of them.
Among them, there are two cafes that you shouldn't miss. Today's Part 1 and the following Part 2 will explain it separately.

Le Consulat
It is located near the Place du Tertre on Montmartre in Paris (18 Rue Norvins, 75018 Paris, France).
It is famous as a representative cafe and photo spot in Montmartre due to its red awning and white building exterior.

Picasso and Vincent Van Gogh's favorite cafe
This café is said to have been frequented by many painters and writers during the late 19th to early 20th centuries when Montmartre was the center of art in the world.
Among them, Pablo Picasso, Vincent van Gogh, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, and Maurice Utrillo are said to have frequently visited this cafe.
It is said that cafes were not places for coffee and meals as they are now, but rather places for socializing where artists discussed their works and lives back then.

The usual backdrop for movies and advertisements.
It frequently appears in movies, dramas, advertisements, and fashion magazines set in Paris, France. The white buildings and red signs and awnings create a contrasting hue, and it is located at the corner of an alley, making it easy to capture camera angles. If you are visiting Montmartre, be sure to take a photo here.
Menu
It offers a regular meal similar to Darl Cafe. Most of the dishes are snail dishes like escargots, steamed mussels, baguettes, pasta, and French fries that Koreans can enjoy without resistance.
The price is set between approximately 20 to 30 euros per dish, but the portions are not large.
Sitting at a table next to a road frequented by many travelers can feel more excited and impatient than a sense of stability and coziness, so I recommend a simple single meal rather than a formal course meal.

Point of caution
Like other European countries, there are many pickpockets. The time I visited was at the end of March, which wasn't the peak season, but it felt like there were a lot of people, and during peak season, it almost automatically gets pushed out.
If one of the group loses their phone and faces a major setback, special caution is needed. You must hold your phone and passport in your hand no matter what, and secure your bag firmly in front of your body.
Many people travel to Europe because the joy and emotion of seeing great sculptures and buildings are far greater than the pressure of always being stressed during a pleasant European trip.
