Père Lachaise Cemetery

Le Père Lachaise is not just the most famous cemetery in Paris, but it's also a place of poetry and charm, perfect for daydreaming and strolling around, for this is where art and nature meet, celebrating many great figures who have shaped Western cultural history, and the cultural history of Paris in particular.
To name but a few, here you can find the graves of Chopin, Rossini, Proust, Oscar Wilde, Colette and more recently Jim Morrison.

The benches allow you to relax in the shade of hundred-year old trees.
The paved pathways are inviting for a quiet stroll around the leafy cemetery where you will pass other daydreamers, and find a moment of poetry and tranquility.
