Sacré-Cœur, Paris, Rue du Chevalier de la Barre

It's impossible to embark on a tour of <em>Amélie</em> filming locations without posing for an iconic shot by the Sacré-Coeur. In the most playful scenes of the movie, Amélie gives another rendezvous to Nino by a phone box at the bottom of Montmartre. She concocts a treasure hunt for retrieving his book of photos where he has to climb all the 222 stairs to the top of Sacré-Coeur following blue arrows before having to race all the way back down. Not only is the view simply stunning in this spot, leaning right across the city, but it's also full of street artists doing incredible football tricks and a hilarious mime artist reaping havoc with the traffic. As well as the carousel and phone box, look out for the telescope from the film.
