The majestic Sacré-Coeur Basilica stands proudly against a dramatic twilight sky in Paris's historic Montmartre district. The Romano-Byzantine architecture is beautifully illuminated by the warm glow of sunset, casting a golden light across its iconic white limestone façade. The basilica's distinctive domes and towers create a striking silhouette, while equestrian statues guard its entrance. Birds flutter across the purple and orange sky, adding dynamic movement to the peaceful scene. The cobblestone plaza in the foreground features characteristic Parisian bollards, while tree branches frame the composition, creating a perfect balance between architectural grandeur and natural elements.
