Much more than a cemetary. This restful place has beautiful tree-lined lanes, benches on which to rest and remember the permanent guests; Simone Signoret and Yves Montand, lovers buried together, or watch the pilgrims to Jim Morrison's grave. This must be the best place to visit on a quiet winter Sunday.
Metro: Gambietta
Good place for a light snack and a good coffee at a fraction of the cost at more pricey cafes.
Across the Street from the Bibliotheque Nationale Richelieu - 58 rue de Richelieu
